Darwin, Australia
Friday, May 19, 2006
My trip to Darwin started again in Wollongong. This time I got to sleep in, as I didn't have to catch the train until 3pm! (7:40pm flight) I got on the flight ok, and we were mostly on time, other flights had been delayed due to thunderstorm activity. I sat next to a guy from New Zealand, who was on his way to Darwin for work. He was an absolute riot; we went back and forth the whole flight, cracking friendly jokes about one another's country, age, etc. It definitely made the 4.5 hour flight much more enjoyable. We arrived at about 12:30am, and ended up at the motel around 1:30am (the shuttle was a bit slow).
