Safe and Sound

Just a note to let you all know that I have arrived back in Coffs Harbour relatively unscathed (except that my body no longer wants to be in a seated position, it wants to be in a straight line/horizontal and in a proper bed).

My flight from San Francisco to Sydney was delayed 24 hours due to an engineer strike. I have learned to find the humour in these types of situations and to remember to just go with the flow. Plus, it takes a few bad flights and delays to apreciate the really great flights. In February, on my flight to Australia, I was running to the restroom every couple of minutes to be sick (for 13 hours). On my flight home, I scored three seats and lots of sleep. Two very contrasting experiences. This flight was uneventful except for the 24 hour delay part. And the interesting people watching. People do crazy things when things don't go their way. One woman even yelled at the flight attendants and complained about waiting for 24 hours(which everyone else on the flight did as well) and not getting the exit row seat she wanted. I guess you can learn a lot from people like that. I wonder what my next flight will be like:)


And just one more thing....just so all of you who are enjoying the warm summer weather know...it is really cold here!! BRRRRRRRRRR........ So enjoy it and take care of yourselves.
Lots of love, Becky
