Last call for passengers...

Tuesday we spent the day doing last minute jobs. Once the packs were packed (and found to be UNDER the 20kg limit!) we felt like we were on top of things. We mished into town to change a couple of things at the bank...an hour later we were finally sussed! a quick stop into the supo for toiletries and marmite for Lee-Ann, a visit to Niki's Nana and then a visit to my Morrison grandparents was a nice way to spend the arvo. Time flew by of course and b4 we knew it we had to rush home to get ready for our farewell dinner out with friends at Zeytins. I had 3 courses!! their food is soo yum (& a bargain). We were once again really spoilt! (naughty ppl!) we luv our tees =) THANKS SO MUCH! Saying goodbye was hard and a few tears were had. Niki was convinced to go have a "few beers" with his mates... 12.30am he stumbled in! the alarm was set for 4.15am! Needless to say we didn't get much sleep. We got out the door by 5.15am (I was stressing as we were behind schedule) and arrived at the airport 2.5 hours before departure so had plenty of time. By then I was getting quite excited/scared...

So anyway (and you've probably already gathered this as right now we're supposed to be in the air yet I've just posted 3 blogs)... our flight was rescheduled for 10.50pm tonight!! STRESS STRESS... pain in the ass as we'd gotten up so early. After further investigation it was found out that we were actually going to be flying with Air NZ at 9.30pm via LA! So completely the opposite to our original flight plan to be flying wirh Royal Brunei Auckland-Brisbane-Borneo-Dubai-London! Even though we are leaving 12 hours later, we only arrive 4 hours later (now 11am) than original plan in Heathrow (Great for Lee-Ann she gets a sleep-in) + that way we won't have as long a day I guess. So all and all it has worked out alright. Right now we are at my sisters house hanging with my gorgeous nephew and catchin up on blogs! Probably have a wee nap this arvo and head back to the airport at 7.30 or so... we have already checked in our luggage and have been allocated a window seat YAY. It's a brand spanking new 777 aeroplane so that's exciting, hoping that means that we have personal tv screens etc. Pretty funny that we paid for a super cheap fare and now we're getting the service of a more expensive one! I found the marmite in my hand luggage before and was reminded by Hollie that you can't take "liquid" of more than 100ml cos of all the new security rules! So dammit Lee-Ann misses out on her marmite! I'm so ditzy there would've been plenty of room in my pack too.

Anyway that's it from us... next time we write we will be overseas! xo take care everyone
