We do pretty much only fly Qantas, and yes it is due to my ongoing status and the lure of LTG. I'll get their next year, just after finishing full time work, and our flying habits may well change then. Best Y fare of the day and much better hotel when we get wherever we're going will be our...

nope, you're right. I always thought seat selection was free if you booked direct but I've not not been a qff member for a very very long time Ade :)

Was your booking through a travel agent/website? Direct Qantas bookings wouldn't incur a seat selection fee unless exit row, extra leg room selected.

YUM. I had a number of my childhood pets while in Peru. Each one was delicious. Especially the deep fried ones.

Brilliant report Pushka. Loved every post!

Don't ignore Pushka. I left a not positive review of one of our private tours in Seoul. I had commented throughout the tour that we didn't want to shop, that we did want a beer etc. He took us into a chemist so that he could buy some skin whitening cream under the pretense of me buying...

Brilliant TA 1022. Some friends of ours have been to Oman a couple of times and keep recommending it to us. The comment about twin beds made me smile. When we arrived at the Radisson in Livingstone last year I asked if it was ok that the room only had one bed. The look of surprise on the face...

Yes, that was a little chilly. Same from Kasane in Botswana to Chobe. From the pictures that we've seen the vehicle for our private tour will be as described by Fruitloop50. I'm not sure if once we're in the parks we might change to lodge vehicles. We'll find out soon.

We traveled in August with no heat issues. April I'd imagine will be quite different. I tried without success to get Y+ released for bAlt so we are revenue in both directions. We're not even going to bother with trying for an upgrade to J on the way home. Well, not yet.

Everything comes down to budget and time. Sure it would have been nice to stay in some of the amazing lodges mentioned but our budget just didn't, and won't ever, go there. As kpc has mentioned, our tour and theirs was with Kiboko. We booked through World Adventures. It would be the equivalent...

Cancelled hotel and rebooked LE at Hotel Indigo

This afternoons view, and tomorrow’s as well. Hilton Cairns

Brisbane office. Some folks on their way to Vancouver in the distance. We’re heading to Palm Cove and Cairns.

First time back on one in I reckon 21 years in a few weeks when we head back to JNB

Mum toook me and my brother to the UK early 1979. The return fares for us kids was I'm pretty sure $450ish. I turned 16 while we were there and my brother was 13.

Photos, and if I can sneak one in without bAlt seeing me, a t-shirt or two. We used to occasionally buy art, but we have much smaller walls since the return to apartment living.

you poor 'old' thing ;)

Ths time next year I should have just 204SC to go for QFF LTG. If the world lasts that long!

It isn't? Well how do we catch up on Sunday morning?

We'll be in Periyar National Park in southern India when we wake up on New Years Day. Our usual out of the country for Jan 26. Next year Wellington. Then nothing else, so far. I'll be without employment and the world is out there waiting. Not sure bAlt is feeling the same with a few years of...
