It's here!

Mixture of nerves and excitement about everything round the corner now, New Zealand is miles away when you scan round on Google Earth from here! haha :-)

No doubt all the plane time will help cement quite how far it is from life here. Been trying to work out sleeping opportunities and concluded I might get a couple before they wake us up at 3am ish (but 7am Dubai time) to arrive in Dubai (dependent on snorers/boozers/general rustlers- not that I can talk, my bladder's micro size, bad luck someone). Meeting Jan at Dubai so will no doubt be hunting the first cup of gallons of teas over the next month. 

Then it all gets rather muddled with Dubai being 4 hours ahead. Expecting to sleep then in the 'day' (night in NZ) on the way to Australia and so adjusting a bit already to the 13hours ahead. 

We've just done my last cold long run here, hopefully going to facilitate some sleeping later. Was good to savour the last of the winter before a month of 20 plus degrees hehe.

See you on the other side of the world, she's off :-)
