Day 36: The longest day!

Mood: Oh my word I'm exhausted
Music: A whole ton!

Well... from where I left off in Punta Arenas I got to the airport and flew to Santiago via Puerto Montt. Once at Santigao I had a couple of hours to wait and then boarded the long flight the gets into Sydney via Auckland.

I watched 3 films straight up and then another couple after an hour or so sleep on the first leg to Auckland. The flight itself was about 13 hours and having a row of screaming children sat in front of me was not exactly what I was wanting to find when I go on board. Once in Auckland we were made to get off (although we could leave our hand luggage on the plane), go through a security scanner station and then were allowed back to the gate to wait to get back on the plane. It seems that this was just for refueling, which they always do with you sat on the plane still in South America!

Now in Sydney I'm spending the first day and a half with Andrew. I've already been up close to see the Opera House and the bridge but have yet to really go on a walk with my camera. I even met up with Graham Davies (with whom I lived in my first year at uni) for lunch today which was really nice. We chatted about a whole hoard of things but as it was just for his lunch hour it was over far too soon.

As I've not really been to bed for over 2 and a half days, I'm not absolutely shattered and will end it there for now.

Night night!
