I don't want to toot my own horn here but I actually thought I did a good job at planning the whole logistics around the trip. It seemed like a pretty tight operation all in all:
(a) Dropped at Sydney airport by Simey
(b) Picked up at Melbourne by Andrew, followed by sensibly-boozey lunch
(c) Andrew's birthday drinks that night
(d) Yum Cha with Jamie, Nathan and the lovely Lizzie the next day
(e) Coffee and gossip session with Jason
(f) Airport drop-off by Jason just in time for my flight out
And surprisingly it all worked like clockwork. Almost.
Well Jason completed his dropping-off task with flying colors, no dramas whatsoever, but by the time I made it to check-in I realised I made an awful mistake. For some reason I thought my flight leaves at 7:30PM. It didn't. Scheduled departure time was 11:59PM. Taking into account that I tend to get to the airport early at the best of times meant that I had over seven hours (let me repeat that bit. Seven. Hours) to burn in Melbourne airport.
Good thing they had the season opener Swannies Vs St Kilda game at the lounge.
A bit of a shame the Swannies lost...
