Usual last minute rush and drama. Took cat to kennels (cattery really) first up in morning. Nearly had to take him home again as we were told he should have had his cat flu shots two weeks ago, not Friday. An extra charge for keeping him in quarantine. Better get used to forking over money for stuff.<\/p>\n
Everything else okay, everyone up-sized their bags before we left, just to guarantee we take too much stuff. Caught shuttle bus to Brisbane at 1700 and had an easy run through customs, etc. Plane left on time at 2100 and we are presently cruising at 30-odd thousand feet at 900 kms\/hr. Three hours down and not even to Darwin. Eleven to go.<\/p>\n
That’s enough. Wanted to get a post in every day near the start. You know they’ll get sparser as I go. I’ve already missed a day as it’s just after midnight!<\/p>\n
