Coeur verrouillé, ouvrez l’esprit

ooo yer the trip!

First bento in months!!

ah so! i forgot the great trip write up oops!

Ok, my flight was delayed by a good 4 hours right… i was there at like… 6a.m, for the originally planned 9.30 a.m flight. which meant… the real flight take off time was at 1p.m. now, i have already told my family not to follow me, but they did. i knew we were going to be delayed, but i didn’t realise it was till 1p.m at that stage.

so anyways, i still owed qantas some money for the connecting flight. because of the huge delay, not only did i get a free international phone card, i got a meals card for breakfast at the airport, as well as the free connecting flight.

When i got on the flight, i was treated so well, and so shoved full of food i almost puked, that i was thinking “damn! i wish British airways was this good to me”. no, it wasn’t about the food, but the service. it was warm, friendly… and australian. soooo australian. The steward asked if we wanted to sneak some headphones back - THEY BUY THEM BACK IN WOLLONGONG FOR $20!! - and, i swear i saw this happened, threw a banana down the walkway haha.

then, when we reached sydney, it turned out that the ground staff at singapore airport disconnected me from canberra, without telling the sydney ground staff. So, they quickly made arrangements, such that by the time i reach the hotel (like 20 minutes later), which was holiday inn sydney airport (and provided by qantas), i had everything set up for me. There was $30 room service and $20 phone calls available to me, international or local. woooo *licks*

And while this delay did cost me the comfort of my own bed in Canberra, i was feeling like some queen in luxury. I had a double bed room, with cable tv… red earth toiletries and everything godly. i was in heaven.

not to mention i was back in Australia! what could beat that?!?!

then i got break fast (STILL PAID FOR BY QANTAS!!) in sydney airport and i was off home.

only problem now is, i bought a book on blogging and left it on the plane. i really can’t remember the title, and it didn’t help that the chick on the phone had no idea what blogging was :(

i love qantas.
