G'Day


View from balcony where I have breakfast

G'Day dear reader and greetings from down under. I'm back in my favourite place with my darling daughter and her partner.
I had good journeys with Qatar airlines, the first leg to Doha was 6 hours. I watched a really good film called Thelma, in which 93 year-old Thelma gets duped by a phone scammer pretending to be her grandson, and then sets out on a scooter with a gun in her handbag to retrieve her money. June Squibb is brilliant as Thelma. I think I watched another one but I can't remember! 
The next leg was 14 hours which happily passed quite quickly watching 4 films, half a documentary about freediving, reading and sleeping.
I arrived on Friday afternoon and have acclimatised to the time difference and so enjoying the glorious hot weather!

∼ Be safe and well∼

    1. Hello Lorrie, I enjoy flying but when I boarded the plane for the long haul I had a moment of "oh this is going to be a long journey" but it passed quite quickly.
