Hello from Melbourne Airport. Last few of days were great. Visited wineries a couple of days ago. Great fun, fave was St Hubert probably because it reminded me most what I like about the Okanagan. Today was ANZAC Day (Australia's Remembrance Day). Got up early to watch the ceremonies and parade. Lots of people, and so many soldiers (I think they call them diggers) also lucky to catch a glimpse of the air force jets doing a fly over. Perfect way to say goodbye to the city (and the country).
Now I'm in the MEL Singapore Airline lounge. Just enjoyed a couple of tea sandwiches and a VB (moving onto Tiger next...grrr). Nice lounge. Lots of really great snacks and bevies. TV, internet, and lots of magazines. On the down it's quite small (and strangely I'm the only one here...??) and not enough windows! Sigh...so far YVR is tops! This one gets 7.5/10. Next stop Singapore via my second heavy! Right on...
