And we are off

I am incredibly excited to be doing this trip for a number of reasons; one, ever since learning about Ancient Egypt in primary school I have been intrigued and fascinated by the history. So to actually go to the pyramids etc feels like I’m travelling to a place of fairy tales! Two, I’ve been so fortunate to have been able to travel a lot this year, but this is the first trip with Jim and that makes me so happy.
The flights were actually not bad and we both managed lengthy and fitful naps which is a bonus. We even actually slept through one of the meal services! Singapore Airlines really are very good.
We had a 6 hour stopover in Istanbul but that went pretty fast as it’s such a MASSIVE airport. Trekking from gate to gate ensured we got our steps up even though we were on our bums for over 20 hours 😂😂Read more
