Day 1 - On Our Way

---

Day of leaving and I am still packing my bags until the time Daisy arrives home at 4pm. She wisely finished her packing on the weekend. Right on schedule, Mitch and Emily drove us to the airport at 5.00pm and we get there at 5:30pm for our 9:00pm flight to Amman, Jordan via Doha, Qatar on Qatar Airways. Daisy likes being there nice and early as she feels less stressed out about it. I like the way you no longer have to fill out departure cards and how you just scan your passport and stand there looking at a screen for the computer to recognise you. Problem is if you're a 64 year old Chinese guy who had his passport photo taken 5 years ago and you stopped dying your hair when you retired, the computer doesn't match you up. Ha ha, had a good laugh about it with the passport control lady as well.

After that it was smooth sailing, had a Thai dinner before we entered the passport control which was just as well as there weren't many options inside and we boarded our flight right on time.
