SUNSITE

After a painstaking 2 day journey from Iceland I have arrived at my final destination: Melbourne, Australia! Security check after security check, queue after queue, transiting after transiting and hours upon hours of sitting in my seat trying to sleep or watch a video I finally got here. There is no way that I could describe this experience as fun or enjoyable, without grossly exagerating the truth. And now, after all that, I am just realising as my laptop runs out of battery that the power points in Australia do not match those at home, so now I will need to make a short break on this entry while I figure out how to plug this thing in. [an hour later] Right, next stop will be the electronics shop but for now I’ll be using Suzes laptop. Back to the story. I started my journey at 5:30am on monday morning and go here at 9:00am wedensday morning. A few hours later I was in bed and slept for 18 hours straight. As I got up this morning I finally felt like a human beeing again. The flights them seleves were only about 24 hours in total. There was however no way to get connections good enough to make the overall travel time shorter. The best part of the journey was without a doubt Changi airport in Shanghai. They have a massage parlor and a rooftop swimmingpool, both of which I made sure I took full advantage of. I sincerely hope that it will be long before I have to make this journey again.
