SUNDAY IN AUSTRALIA.... AND NEW ZEALAND

 

I am up bright and early this morning, and will be out at the International Airport hours before my flight!

Only because this sort of thing (International Travel) stresses me out.  I want to get checked in, get through customs and Immigration and then... I can just relax.

It was wonderful to get a comfortable night's sleep last night.  My room is lovely, no a speck of dust in sight, very clean, and I felt SAFE.

ABOVE:  Where I stayed last night, the Ibis, Brisbane Airport.  Really lovely.

ABOVE: Lorraine and her darling little granddaughter, Joyce.

ABOVE: THAT is what happens to me (all over) when I sit for days and days on end.  Fluid retention.  I will certainly be taking some Frusemide when I get home.  Even my face has gone all puffy.  Not a good look.

I'm going to jump in the shower, then get out of here.  I am catching a shuttle bus to the terminal.

...

Lol... I had a photo of the hospital up there, instead of the hotel.  I've fixed it now.  YES, I am VERY tired.

It's 7.28 am and soon I can check in for my flight home.

ABOVE.... boarded, and taking off RIGHT NOW! Eeeekkkk

I hate take off and landing. 10.55 am, bye bye Australia. 

ABOVE: Going up....

LANDED. So relieved to be on NZ Soil again.
