• The night before tomorrow

    18 juli 2024, Australië ⋅ ☁️ 9 °C

    My trip is starting tomorrow morning at f-off early o’clock with a 5:45am flight up to Sydney. To make it easier to get my boys settled in with their dog sitter (and to cut out a 25min morning drive), I’m staying at the airport tonight. I’m excited about the travels tomorrow, but am already missing my boys. A month is a long time to be away from them but I think they are in good hands.

    I’ve stayed at the Park Royal at the airport a few times before which I find a bit dated and overpriced. Fortunately Accor opened a twin hotel property near terminal 4 earlier this month. It features a Novotel and Ibis Styles, and I’m staying at the latter. The room is compact but brand new and comfortable for an early night. It was about $100 cheaper than the Novotel which is kind just down the hall.

    Alas my room doesn’t face the runway, which probably is for the best for an early sleep otherwise I’d be up all night glued to the window watching the planes. I had my free welcome drink on arrival with a quick dinner downstairs and now am settled up in my room winding down for bed.

    Not sure how I’m going to use this app. Probably going to be full on for the first few days then will probably slow down.
