We are finally here!

The 14 hour flight from Dubai to Sydney was too long. They did have
some good games and movies though. We had three meals on the plane and they came on trays sealed in plastic containers.

When we got to Sydney we couldn't get off the plane because a passenger had to have an ambulance crew come and help them. We took a taxi to the Old Sydney hotel which is where we are now. They have a swimming pool and a jacuzzi on the roof from where you can see the opera house and Sydney harbour bridge
