Sunday

Well, two weeks ago we missed out on a Saturday, but this week we get two Sundays. It was tough to wake up to the alarm at 7 but we had arranged our shuttle for 9:00. On the way to the airport the minibus almost rear ended a car who slammed on his brakes right in front of us when he decided he didn't want to take the exit after all. Check in opened at 9:30 and thanks to Mr. Super Elite we didn't have to wait in line. And then, huge surprise, he had upgraded us to business class! So exciting, it will be so much easier to sleep, and to get up and move around.

Due to the snow situation in Vancouver, the incoming flight is late arriving which makes our flight delayed, because the same plane turns around and heads straight back. We're delayed about 90 minutes. It shouldn't affect our connection in Vancouver though.

We got to the Air New Zealand lounge around 10 and had a nice breakfast. Air Canada doesn't have a lounge in Sydney so we get to use Air New Zealand's. After we ate we headed to the duty free for some last minute shopping. Then back to the lounge, where we saw that we are flying home with the women's rugby sevens team. They just won the Sydney Sevens tournament.

We will be loading soon so that's all for now. I'll finish up on our second Sunday.
