Above: Flying to Melbourne with Emirates.
Today I departed on a 5 week journey but it didn’t feel like I was going anywhere. There was no real sense of excitement as the first leg was only to Melbourne, flying Emirates Airlines departing at 1745.
Melbourne is somewhere which is not too different from New Zealand and familiar. I had been there before and would be staying in the comfort of my aunt’s apartment in the city.
Upon arrival at 1745 I made my way by bus to my aunt’s place. I was treated to a second dinner around 2100. I enjoyed a very nicely prepared Hainan Chicken rice accompanied with blanched baby kailan with oyster sauce and sesame oil. Yummy!
