Christmas Drinks & Train Crawl Sydney to Canberra [Sat. 14 December]

[vertisol]

Good morning from south Canberra. A little overcast but not cold.

Now that my 2 year old human alarm clock has done his job I might as well just get ready.

My day began at 05:55 when tuapekastar picked me up. We are now en route to MEL by car. ETA 06:45 in the QF T1 J lounge.

Coffee brewing in OOL, although I've had to sneak off without Sam and AIRwin!

Yawn ! . Just realised it was to early to get out of bed .... Another hour

 

[bass_ke]

Looks like it's ZPT this morning

And now it's a race between major and myself in the VA E190 and samh004 and airwin in the JQ A320, see you there lads!

Morning, all!

Woke up to find some guy powerwhoring outside my room. A little overcast & I can hear some wind howling. Back to sleep for about 90 minutes!

Nobody mentioned we were doing some group shots on the Sydney Harbour Bridge first!

After less than an hour sleep I have landed in Sydney. You'll find me in the VA lounge, though I may not see you - having trouble both focusing and keeping my eyes open for more than 3 seconds at a time.

 

[bass_ke]

Va500 has landed, see you in the lounge folks

 

[MartinMemo]

And I believe this might be the JQ from OOL with AIRwin and Sam on board.

If that was on 16L I think I may have just seen the same aircraft from the taxiway

 

[samh004]

Just landed. Here's an interesting photo of a guy (orange fluoro) a couple rows ahead of me who had his seat reclined and belt unbuckled for landing. Should probably send it to CASA.

Taken a large table near the window.

 

[bass_ke]

Here with major now, in the back corner near computers

 

[serfty]

Landed, nice views of lake Eildon on the way up ...

 

[erkpod]

I'll be at Central shortly in the Tlounge ... oh wait
