Day 1 ( although I don’t think it could count as a day):
Well we’re off to a great start. We waited our very long time at the airport. Where we were excruciatingly board. I think we walked around in a big giant circle. Which by the looks people gave us isn’t what they call normal anyway
Dad: The fight registration is PH-BQL
We boarded at 23:15and the duration of the fight is 11h 3m (they seriously KEEP saying that).
The aircraft’s name is The Flying Dutchmen. Which I just got! Our hole crew is very Dutch. YAY! We’re thinking of you. Enjoy the house warming without us!
We have a very accommodating air stuart named Dave although just when you need him to turn your screen on to anything but this stupid program he’s sleeping. Speaking of sleeping. Wouter is an expert at airplane sleeping. That’s all I’ve seen him do. Thinking in that ganre I come 2nd with a whopping 4 hours sleep!
There was no cramping my style (inside joke).
Ohmigosh I feel like I have to look after Jessica because when Jessica’s tired she gets a little blonde-r. But that didn’t last long because of course it wasn’t going to last long. Mom was on the isle on the 4 seat row and Jessica was on the isle in the 3 seat row with Wouter and myself. Well Jessica swapped with mom and I sprawled across mom and Wouter and then sprawled across Wouter and mom.(yes there is a difference). It was comfortable up until I pressed on ms bladder and she needed to pee and so we both went I got back thought that’s a pity I’ll never be able to sleZZZZZZZZZZZZ! That was around 4. I first went to sleep at1:44 so I went to sleep for another hour and had my four hours worth of sleep of course mo had zilch.
Now for our neighbors. When mom was in the 4 person row we got in and the plane wasn’t even moving and her next-door neighbor was asleep and not just asleep his head kept falling on to moms shoulders. It was funny although he soon stopped. Behind mom in the person row was a Chinese looking lady after a while I awoke and she was yelling at Dave (gasp) she was going on about the lying Dave handled the situation very well. We also had some really stupid ‘gangsters’ in front of us. Finally Jessica’s fav. Suddenly Jessica bumps my arm and with her eyes points to this boy coming to sit behind us. He looked about 21. Jessica whispered Yummy! So I (very on-shalantly) spied on him with my awesome subtle powers. He played the guitar he also looked as if he had another music case on his lap. He obviously was well looked after he also had a lap-top. He slept the whole blimmin’ flight which Jessica thought was unfair!
I have maintained a steady amount of sneezes through the past few hours. Have taken vitiamn C AND Viral Guard. My nose is quite sore from blowing so much and I’m SO hot!-I think those are the only complaints besides the food.
Food: we had dinner at some weird hour and I was the only one in our posy to eat. I had a chicken pie thing that wasn’t that great although the pudding was quite nice. Not good for my nose though. Then we got breakfast at another weird hour. This was quite nice; fruit salad, yogurt with granadilla on top, some sort of French scrambled egg thing. Miranda would know. It’s the think one that can standup on it’s own. Anyway that and a sausage with potato.
One of the most annoying thing was that I wasn’t excited. I was disgusted with myself! But that is not a problem anymore believe me!
One of the funniest things that have happened so far is Jessica at her blondest. When we were in Cape Town International we were told from security “Please all electrical appliances cell phones, laptops etc.” So we do and then we have to go through the scanner thingy. We’re all fine no beeps or anything until Jessica. She goes back takes off all her jewelry and goes through again Beep beep beep! The lady gets permission from mom to search Jessica and the lady pats Jessica and then very casually says please put your ipod in the basket miss. LOL!!!
We’re about to land at 10:02 local time. It’s raining and 16*c(degrees calicoes).
Scipol is sooooo pretty! Also very high-tech and self efficient. We were having a lovely lunch when Jessica asked AGAIN what time our flight was. Wouter looked and said “4 minuets ago” That was only to board though and they were late but still we were like “Ok grab the drinks and lets go”. The comfort was that there were no “You stupid people who needed to be here 4 minuets ago get you butts here!”
So that was nice.
I will get into days when we get to San Diego but for know I have no idea.
