I thought that was the last entry but decided to add a little about the journey home ... which is not over yet. Left Toulouse as scheduled at 7.30 on Friday and flew Lufthansa to Frankfurt and then Prague. Spent most of the day in the airport waiting to check in. I think it was 7 or 8 hours. Flew Finnair to Helsinki and on arrival was told the flight to Hong Kong had been delayed and we would fly in the morning. So we hopped into a shuttle bus and were taken to the Holiday Inn, where George from Sydney and I had a drink in the bar before retiring to our rooms.
Back to the airport on Saturday morning where the flight was again delayed but only for an hour this time. A good flight to Hong Kong but of course we had all missed our connections so this time we were put up at the Regal Airport Hotel. Am now at the airport waiting for the final flight - I hope! It departs at 7.10pm and gets to Melbourne at 7.20 Monday morning. I think I have taken the long way home!

ReplyDeleteYou poor thing. But although the final flying has been such a pain, the trip, overall, has been a triumph!
