Flying To Phoenix

The latest update is that I am now flying towards Phoenix, having negotiated LAX. It was quite a rush, and both Catherine and myself (particularly myself, I got paged) just got to the gates on time. Catherine's flight seemed to have been boarding, verses mine, which was boarded, I was the second last person on the plane.

Yes, I say "gates" and talk as if we're on two different flights - because we are! They both leave and arrive at the same time, but unbeknown to us, and certainly not at our request, our travel agenet had booked us on two different flights from LAX to PHX! What a pain in the ass, in addition how tight the doing LAX was. At the end of the day it will be fine, and we'll meet up at Skyhabor in 50 odd minutes, but what a pain in the ass, and such a fuck up - especially considering that we booked the tickets together, literally! [smile]

Aside from that, the Melbourne to LA fight was good. It was both a lot better, and seemed a lot better than the one last year! It's a long ass flight, but certainly was more bareable this time around, compared to last time. Flying out of Melbourne was quite cloudy, as was flying into LA. It looked pretty sweet, but then again, you literally didn't see any of LA until we were basically right on LAX. Blankets of clouds stretched as far as the I could see. It was much the same flying out. The cloud cover has thined somewhat now, I assume we're over Arizona at this stage, and you can see stuff, but it wasn't until we got right out of LA that that was the case. thankfully this flight isn't that long, and we'll already be in Phoenix shortly.
