Travel day to Sydney

The flight wasn’t until 13:50 so there was no rush this morning. The main concern for today was whether my back pain would be an issue.

We got to the Airport at about 11:00 with plenty of time to kill, so went to the Qantas lounge courtesy of Mandy. We had something to eat, then wandered around the duty free shops.

The aircraft was late leaving, Mandy informs me this is typical for her flights to Sydney, but were talking a full 40 minutes late.

So we eventually left, and the flight was fine. The pain wasn’t an issue until about half-way through, and thats when I had to take one of my crazy pills. Strangely enough, this time there was no craziness. It was fine and the pain subsided.

We arrived at the hotel after a long Uber ride through the city as it was rush hour. The Traffic here is worse than Auckland and thats saying something!

Tomorrow Alex and Laurie pick us up and we will be heading out of Sydney.
