  • From point to point

    Done it! Arrived in Sydney after some great views of Victoria, snow on the Alps, and more Canberra. Even flew over one of my workplaces. Few bumps and I’m glad to be back. Tension over for now.

  • QF438 MEL – SYD

    Almost time to head home, aboard Yarralumla.

  • Made it to Melbourne

  • Time to fly home

    Let’s go. Please be safe and smooth.

  • Checked in, but not ready to go

    Well, I sort of am ready to go in that I’d love to be home in my own bed right now. It’s the intervening bit that I am dreading. Had some French toast with berries and ice cream for “dinner”. Can’t stand savoury right now. This stress is terrible. Terrified.
