oue epic journey part 2, OZ and NZ

So, after leaving Dubai on Tuesday morning we prepared ourselves for a 17 hour marathon journey to New Zealand. The four of us and my mother, who was travelling with us so she could teach us all we needed to know about our new home.

Sat in what would be home for the next three quarters of a day, we were blessed with a 600 channel entertainment system, The food was good the kids behaved fantastically, and Claire hardly spoke to me the whole time, almost like heaven.

We arrived at Melbourne Airport twelve and a half hours later, at about 6.00am. Our plane was then prepared to leave at 7.10am. So a quick security check and a trip to the toilet later and we reboarded for the final leg of our journey.

A little over two and a half hours flight and we arrived in Auckland to a very emotional welcome from my sister and her family. Her account of the day can be seen on her blog, Life today.

Hi, thanks for the link to my site, nice to have you back online.
You should have linked to the actual post rather than my site, that way when people click the link it takes them straight to the post you are talking about rather than them having to try and find it when they visit my site.
Keep posting, Kathryn x x x
