Traveling Home - Day 2 (Tuesday 1st)

After our long stay in Dubai we managed to find a Qantas desk in a part of the Emirates section of the airport so we got our boarding passes - joe is staying over in Melbourne for a few days but Peter, Libby and I got passes throug to our final destination (Peter & Libby to Launceston and me to Hobart). Gay is going on to Honart but here was some difficulty with her seat so she said for the rest of us to head off and we didn't really see her until we were about to board the flight.

Peter, Libby and I have sat together in 3 seats all the way from Tel Aviv with a slight change of order depending on circumstances.

On the flight I managed to watch 3 movies - The Heat with Sandra Bullock, Man of Steel with Henry Caville and Russell Crowe and The Sapphires with Jessica Mauboy - so it was an interesting flight back.

As I am writing this part of the blog we are over the Great Australian Bight with just over 90 minutes flying time to Melbourne arriving just a little ahead of schedule at 5.20am.

Then it is through the Duty Free area to get some things before getting our bags and heading to customs and then onto have our bags checked through to our final destinations and then I'll update the blog later in the day when everything is all 'over'.
