Day 24

Fairbanks to Melbourne

This morning the alarm went off at 03 30 for the short bus ride to the airport Princess Cruses in there best land organisation sent one bus with seating for 48 to pick up 70 passengers so after a 20 minute wait the bus returned for the rest of us.
Everything at the airport went smooth and left on time for the four hour flight to Seattle, where some of us had a three and a half others four and a half and a six and a half wait for our flight to Vancouver.
There we all meet up again for our 15 and a half hour flight to Sydney with Air Canada, the first time Val and I have been on a plane flight where hot towels were not handed out and when it came to breakfast and they had run out of pancakes we where told that's all we have sweetheart.
But the trip got better when we got to Sydney we asked the QANTAS staff if there was a chance of a earlier flight before the 12 00 o'clock one they got us on the 10 00 Scotty was there to pick us up.
No matter haw long or how short your holiday is it is still good to be back and called Australia Home.
