Still Day 1

Have arrived in Singapore and the flight was a little rough so much that Monica thought she was going to get sick at one stage. Apart from that the food and service was great. We have a 4 1/2 hour wait for our next flight to Helsinki which leaves here at 11.35pm so we are relaxing in the Qantas Lounge. Hope to get some sleep on the next flight.

Day 1 Brisbane 23 Aug 2016

Have checked in thru Business Class and we have found it great. It's a pity all air travel is not like this. We have had a change in flights since yesterday when we were told that we will be on a different aircraft which will go via Singapore instead of Hong Kong. Luckily we didn't have any plans to spend time in Honkers. We will still have some 6 hours to fill in the same as before and arriving in Helsinki only 35 minutes later than the previous schedule. We will meet Bill and Margaret there instead of H K. Expect to board in 45 minutes.

Still one day to go 22.8.16

Have just heard from our travel agent that we have been re scheduled and now fly later and via Singapore instead of Hong Kong. This means we won't meet up with our travel companions till we arrive in Helsinki instead of Hong Kong. However, this gives us the opportunity to access some more Changi Dollars maybe.

Europe River Cruise 2016

Well, we will start this from Day "0" with less than 24hours before our flight leaves. We are busy packing and repacking etc.
