Last leg(s)

The Cairns flight was also delayed due to the incoming flight being late. The on-time KPIs will be a bit bruised after all this. I haven’t had my customary whinge this trip so it’s time: BNE flights from gate 16 are not blessed with an air bridge so it’s down stairs - along the tarmac then up stairs. Not good for those who have carry on only! Just not good enough for a Cairns flight. I also had decided to get some duty free and of course that added to the degree of difficulty! Anyway - I survived and got to 2A intact. It is an Embraer 190 - a lovely aircraft that also has the bonus of a row of single seats in BC. I don’t often have window seat AND an aisle seat! The Lois sparkling by Lane winery (geddit?) is a classy fizz and has been a quality add to QF BC these last few months. Lunch was lovely moist chicken with a meaningless mound of quinoa- particularly unsuited to an aeroplane tray as the particles are quite mobile. We should let the South Americans who have it as a staple - keep it! Don’t start me on Australian grown cotton or rice………… I think I am tired!!!
Whinging done! I think we are over the top of Mackay so not far now. Here is the reef, now Fitzroy Island and now low over my village. I am home - it’s very windy but warm so not too much of a shock. Work tomorrow but my next trip is less than 3 weeks away so not an issue! Thanks for following, thanks for the catch up Sandy and a BIG thank you to the Lion City for being - well Singapore! A hard place to not love and I look forward to an even longer stay next MayEn savoir plus
