Day 184 of 2014
I had set my alarm for 4:30, it was a bit of a struggle to get up. Mum, Dad and I all showered then we hit the road. I managed to get a good hours sleep in the car, while we were driving to the airport.
When we got to the airport, I was feeling nervous. At the same time I was really excited. We got some food to eat then waited around a little bit till it was time for me to go inside. I had a little look in Duty Free, but didn't for to long. Then I went and sat at the gate where I had to board the plane. Since I woke up at 4:30 that morning, the sun was rising and it was absolutely beautiful.
There was this Chinese lady that didn't know any english with a camera and she looked at me and smiled. Instantly we were able to communicate because we both had cameras. She seemed pretty funny, she took a few photos of me, so I snapped one of her.
I had a pretty good flight to Sydney. It was a packed flight but it was chilled out as well. I watched Need For Speed on the plane. Its actually a really good movie. If you haven't watch it yet, I recommend it. Watching it on the planes screen wasn't any good though.
When we landed I got through customs and everything pretty quick. I only had to wait for my bag to come around. I waited a little while, then Mama and Aaron came and got me and came to Mama's place. Yesterday we were pretty much at mamas for the whole day. I just rested and caught up with the family. We had a family dinner and it was great to see everyone.
Just before the sun went down Mama and I took Alfie (Leena Jiji's dog) for a walk. We rushed to get to a good spot to see the sun go down. It was totally worth the mad dash.
I got here and its been one day and I've already said that I don't want to go back to New Zealand. But mum doesn't need to know that.
Peace everyone
