Qantas

Qantas is by far the best airlines ever! I guess I should start with my flight to LA.  It felt long because the entire time I just kept thinking…this flight is nothing compared to the big one.  I attempted to watch How I Met Your Mother DVDS on my computer but that was a bit of a fail considering my computer is massive and the little amount of space at my seat was not much.  But I survived and then it was time to wait for my next flight.  I had an awkward dinner by myself at Chili’s To Go in the airport.  Lucky for me it was the 4th quarter of the NBA finals game and my table was seated right by the bar.  So I got to watch the Mavs dominate!  Of course I was cheering for them for many reasons, most importantly  because I know more people that live in Dallas versus Miami.

My flight to Australia was pretty good, there was an open seat next to me so it was nice to get to stretch out a little more.  I watched a couple of movies and was REAL excited to see that there were GLEE and Modern Family episodes so I watched a bunch of those.  Tylenol PM was a bit of a fail for me, but I did manage to sleep on and off for about 4 hours.  I took my dads advice and walked around and drank lots of water so that definitly helped.  I got two meals, chicken and veges for dinner and then eggs in the morning.  Both were pretty good for an airplane but still really small and flavorless.

Once I landed and went through finding my bags and customs (worst part of traveling out of the country) I was greeted with by my AUSSIE family and it made the long trip well worth it.  I was SO HAPPY to see them again.  It really felt like nothing had changed and we had a great time catching up in the car ride home.
