Airport '75

There's definitely some good things about being around in 2006, not least of which wireless broadband in airports.

I'm sitting with Phoebe and Holden writing as they speak.

Holden: The plane had personal TVs and games. It was easy to sleep.

Phoebe: On the plane I played Tamagochi and ... on the plane I also found it really hard to sleep and I really liked how on the TV there was a remote that came in the plane with a thingy...giggle... and it ... and I mean....just make... I think that's all.

And it was very nice.

Tiffany: Are we there yet?

Me: Auckland airport was a disgrace but LAN Chile Airways is my new favourite airline. Very impressed. Modern plane, reasonable food, good service. It's as much as you can ask for. We're all trying to get into Spanish. I spent most of the night struggling with lesson 1 to 3.

There's nothing like the boredom of sitting around an airport for hours to drive one to "work". Delighted to know you've made a start to the real travels in deepest darkest. keep those blog entries coming. Big kisses to all.

Good to see Phoebe is still her effervescent self, even after hours of plane travel! Let her know that the caterpillar still hasn't finished building it's cocoon. The kids are checking on it more than enough! Had another 8hrs of excel training yesterday - more painful than norm with no Tiff to email! Can't wait for the next entry.
