Off we go!

September 14 2017

After a  dodgy start with our flight from the Sunny Coast cancelled at 6am we arrived at Brisvegas thanks to Daniel and Nellie .. filled in a couple of hours having a wander around and the usual Bon Voyage cuppa (yeah not coffee!!) 

We paid for a "Lounge Buddy " pass at Sydney airport as we had so many hours to kill between our flights.. well we ended up having just on 2 hours so mates we had to drink like the proverbial to get our $$$$'s worth. Gotta do what you gotta do! 

We boarded Hawaiian airlines flight to Honolulu (must say the were below par this time around) a couple more drinks, the obligatory slop on my blouse stain and we 

woke up approaching Honolulu... is it now yesterday or tomorrow...?? Yep, You get the theme of this trip so far! 

The turn around at Honolulu was way too short.. we ran around jumping queues.. pushing in ...as you do.. all the while making new friends who were  off to different parts of the world. 

Now I look back it was fun. Not so yesterday or today or tomorrow or whatever! 

We ended up having time for a refreshment before we boarded our flight to Seattle, met a lovely Kiwi who has just finished  a Contiki tour after a stint at a summer camp, just as our friend Jimmy Bullimore does every year. 

Blow me down... last on that flight cos we kept chatting.. Wazza went to Get another drink.. I looked at my watch ... hahaha still on Brissy time... I suggested we should get a wriggle on. Glad one of us had a grey 

cell left!

This has to have been the LONGEST plane flight in the history of the world! 

Now don't get me wrong... I am at my happiest doing nothing....BUT doing nothing stuck in a big tin bird for 3 weeks and 87 days is NOT my idea of fun.

 Much better flight crew this leg, but You have to pay to pee almost.. not quite but it's like Jetstar wanna blankie it costs want ear plugs costs... 

That's Ok it's getting us where we need to be! 

Karen Martin, you will be dismayed to hear Wazza has just come down with the "FOOT" problem! 

I am NEVER leaving Aus till it's all sorted out. I feel dismayed and overwhelmed for him. It's intolerably painfully unfunny. He has had all the meds he can have and then some.

So, our day in Seattle is shot I am tipping... 

And no , I didn't give him any pineapple! 

Just looked at the map.. one hour and 5 minutes to go... 

Let's get this party on the road.... or on the cruise ship!
