Nerves

As usual, I've left everything to the last minute. Still got a tonne of stuff to pack and clear away before I go. Nervous and cranky these last couple of days.

This one's going to be a bit harder than last time. On the way out I've got four flights: 24:25 hours of flying and 9:55 in transit. The way back is 6 flights: 34:20 flying and 26:15 in between. That's a long time to be dependent on what I can carry on. At least I'll have access to lounges and showers in between flights.

I get into Frankfurt at 0600 28 June (Wednesday) and leave at 1145. That's maybe enough time to get into town and have a poke around for a couple of hours. Or maybe I should just lounge about in the lounge and catch up with the internet. I'll tuck a couple of packets of TimTams in my carry on, just in case.

Ooops. Forgot to post the above before I left. I'm now in the Cathay Pacific lounge in Melbourne, having had a pleasant flight from Canberra. I'm releasing a book here.

Looking forward to a great flight. I've got a good window seat, and Cathay Pacific service is legendary.
