Who said airports are stressful?

Just a quick one as couldn’t resist the obligatory champagne before flight 🍾.

Had a relatively easy transfer across by bus to the international terminal, fast track security and then up to the Qantas International First Lounge. No time to eat but had a lovely drop of champagne before the flight. With views of the beautiful A380 and a bright morning sun hopefully this is a good omen for the start of this adventure.

This was always my happy place… hoping to get back here more often.

Ended up back in the lounge after my flight was delayed as the coffee machine was leaking. They reckon it’ll take 30mins to fix so decided to get some toasted muesli with rhubarb and yogurt to tie me over before I get moving.

It’s a ripper of a morning here with great views of the departing flights with the Sydney skyline in the background. Worse places to spend some time.

Meanwhile the terminal is busy!Read more
