Auckland airport is tedious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So we are currently enjoying (?!?) the delights of the Quantas Club Lounge in Auckland airport while suffering the equivalent delays when travelling Easy Jet / BA / Czech Airlines between Gatwick and Prague. Flight should have left at 7.30pm and at the moment are hoping to head off over the Pacific towards LA by 12.30am ... are the delights of modern airtravel. What is quite amusing is that I am just reading a Jeremy Clarkson book at the moment where he informed me about 2 hours that he would award the prize for the worst form of travel of any kind to Quantas Airlines as he has never been on a flight of their's which flew on schedule. I think it may be an omen!

Dom has had to spend the last couple of hours trying to instill guilt into me over my desire to buy up half of duty free ... the big fluffy lambskin cushions would be really comfortable for our overnight flight though! Think even the shops are shutting up now so I may have missed my chance ... just all the more reason to have a good old shop in the US. Anyway shouldn't really complain I guess as at least I am not battling with leaves on the line / overly frosty frost or some other such excuse on the trains up to town.

Anyway .... going to go and see if Dom has heard any more updates and we will blog again asap. Very strange to think that I could be on Rodeo Drive 8 hours ago when we get to the states (follow that if you can ... this whole date line thing does my head in a little!)

See you soon
