Nu‘ayjah

Wow! That was certainly a huge first leg! 14 hours since departing from Melbourne and currently sitting in Doha at 35°

Probably didn’t sleep more than a couple of hours, especially as I had a XXL man who had raised his seat arm so he could fit… Consequently, almost sitting/sleeping on me! It didn’t help that he had a very bad BO problem either… Thank God (or Allah!?) for the mask in this case 🙄😷

The food and service on Qatar 🇶🇦 is outstanding! The only odd choice was the snack of a meat pie at 5 am! The rest of the meals were extremely well done, nutritious and delicious 😋

I settled in and watched One Night in Soho (..very strange flick) and got teary-eyed watching Notting Hill, knowing I’ll be physically there this weekend.

I’m reminded just how far Australia 🇦🇺 is from the rest of the world 🌍 12,000km and still half as far to go again! Hopefully the Airbnb con artists will not play funny buggers in 7 hours time… it will be in no mood to play hide 🫣 & seek!En savoir plus
