Over the sea

Had an early night after some merlot from Orange NSW and some Pullman choccies. Up early for a run around the deserted Mascot Streets. The lightest drizzle but not a problem. Caught the train to International and whizzed through security - so much better these days. In to the First Lounge with plenty of time to enjoy. Not many others at this time so plenty of room. Brekkie was 2 perfectly cooked eggs with lovely smoked salmon - tip top Benny! They are still pouring Lallier RX019 which is excellent fizz. Lallier is a house making a name for itself! Good coffee then a relax in the same seats that S&T favour! The plane was delayed an hour as they had to find a crew! Fiji time!! A duty free near the gate had a couple of decent choices. Between a Deutz and a Palmer-the Palmer won as it was on special for $75 - a bargain for a super wine. I rocked up to pay and was told $51!! On extra special and what a trophy! We finally got on our way and it was another full flight - a standard Qantas 737 but no power or interweb. Nice people next to me. Brunch was a funny breakfast mixed grill that tried! Friendly crew topped up the fizz which was nice. The cabin boss then appeared and arranged a glass (2) of Jacquart which was appreciated. Arrived in Nadi, taxi no issue and the room is nice and near the pool. Stocked up with drinks from the next door bottle oh and then some quiet time poolside. Bula indeed!Weiterlesen
