Home and horizontal

Oh how it's good to be home.

Up early (way to early)

Discover streets closed in preparation for street carnival in Wellington today.

Impossible to discover new route for airport bus as no signage (big thumbs down to Wellington City Council).

Lovely taxi man spots perplexed woman and takes me to the airport (big thumbs up to him).

Air NZ auto check in declares my flight is closed (oddly futuristic as it's still 1.5 hours away from departure).

Air NZ staff eventually decide my flight is canceled (rather than closed but don't know why, or more to the point, why I wasn't told).

Air NZ staff helpfully get me onto the next flight to Christchurch (for which I'm extremely grateful as I'm very tired).

I happily read the paper, watch planes and prepare yesterday's blip over free bircher muesli and coffee (a nice touch Air NZ).

Get to Chrishchurch...... arrive home (bliss).

....unpack...do washing....crash for an afternoon relax and sleep....spot toes poking out from mohair rug....take today's blip.

Indeed, it is good to be home.

Edit: Oddly I just discovered this blip had disappeared, yet it was uploaded (or maybe I just thought it was....)
