Holiday begins!
It's great being in Sydney so far, just chilled out and not doing a whole lot.
Getting here was the tough part though.
Left work at 3.30pm and went straight to the airport. Traffic held us up and it ended up costing me $34 to get to the airport from the Valley.
Went to check in and my flight was cancelled. Booo. Stupid weather. Fortunately I got there early enough to get on an earlier flight.
The earlier flight was due to leave at 4pm. Sat around the airport as my flight was delayed, delayed, delayed. The plane finally arrived and I ended up leaving the same time I was scheduled to *facepalm*.
The flight itself was over pretty quickly, they didnt even have time to finish serving everyone food by the time we started our descent.
I'd forgotten how huge Sydney airport is... took me ages to walk to the baggage claim area from the terminal... and was greeted by the ever awesome illdrinn and the spunky neotokyo. Quick catch ups and off to Newtown to dump my luggage.
Went to coffee last night with a bunch of random friends of Amaya's but in the end we were both exhausted from lack of sleep and we went back to the House that Trash Built for TV and geeking.
I've got the daunting task now of having a holiday while spending the least money possible... we'll see how that goes :P
The road to Mardi Gras is underway - we need to watch Priscilla before Saturday night :)
