Leavin, On A Jet Plane
8:52 am Sat, 7th May 2005Hello all. I thought I’d write a few blog entries whilst on the plane, even though I can’t post them straight away. But hey… I’m blogging at 20,000 feet!! Hee. Its now around 12:10am Sydney time – and we’re currently descending towards HK International airport landing in about 30 mins time. I’ve had a pretty good 9 hour flight so far, in a window seat. Watched nearly 3 movies (In Good Company, National Treasure and about 3/4 of Phantom Of The Opera). Also caught some pretty beautiful sights whilst on the way over – the sunset over a sky-full of dotted clouds.. and some rather cool lightning in a mass of storm clouds in the distance. I didn’t sleep though as I wasn’t really that tired. Anyway I better turn my laptop off now! Will blog more when I’m in transit at HK airport. Ciao for now. 🙂
Ok I’m back. It is now 11:15am Sydney time, 9:15am HK time and 2:15am London time. I spent all of 1 hour in HK airport before boarding my connecting flight to London.. just enough time to cleanse, tone and moisturise, brush my teeth amd have a wander round. Hee. Now we’re somewhere over Russia (near Moscow) at 38000 feet (11,582 metres), and are due to reach London in about 3:15 hrs (its been abt 9 hours already). A couple hours ago we passed over/near the Sayan Mountains.. and it was quite a spectacular sight.. seeing these snow-capped mountain ranges from above. I managed to get a decentish amount of sleep during this flight… about 3-4 hours first block, then another 3 hours in a second block. Kinda patchy sleep, but I do feel fairly awake at the moment. I guess if I’m tired enough I can sleep anywhere. And boy was I tired by 3:30am this morning (Syd time).
Ugh, my tailbone/butt is sore.
So anyway, I can’t believe I’m on a plane going over to London.. I can’t believe this is it. It still feels like I’m just going on a short journey somewhere and that I’ll be back home by dinner time. I think my brain is finding it hard to.. comprehend. It just feels wierd.. I dunno what I’m supposed to be feeling.. so my brain is like “Oh well.. meh.. too hard to comprehend”. I am kinda excited though. It will be cool to finally see London again.. after 15 years.
Well. Its getting a bit uncomfortable using this laptop in my seat. Tis a tad cramped. I think I’ll watch another movie. Stay tuned for more updates on Kazzart’s Adventure In London. 😉 Will upload photos soon too.
