Flight north to Fiji from Auckland. The land and islands looked interesting as we came in through towering cumulus clouds and it had rained recently. Plenty of Common Mynas in the airport.

Next flight out, in a couple of hours’ time, to Los Angeles, will take us across the International Date Line.Read more

Nothing much to report here. A long wait for our Aer Lingus connection, a fellow traveller exhibiting concerning psychotic behaviour, and Bev stressed by leaving her Kindle on the Fiji plane. Hoping that phone calls and emails will have solved this before we fly out this evening. But unlikely.Read more

No joy yet with the lost Kindle, and Los Angeles information people, military in style, were utterly uninterested in Beverly’s request for help - suggested earlier by a much more friendly airport employee.

An easy, 10 hour flight from LA to Dublin with Aer Lingus but too little legroom compared, especially, with the aircraft from Fiji to LA.

A rather cold and miserable set of buildings at Dublin compared with others we have been at, reflecting the wet and windy conditions outside. Now a 4+ hour wait for a delayed aircraft to Edinburgh - our first delay in the whole trip.

Much fun watching the antics of AI “waiters” delivering plates of food to customers while we waited and had a beer.Read more
