Departing Melbourne


20/2/11

Arrived at Casa Oscar approximately midnight. Reddit made sure we didn't sleep until the a car trip to the airport. A nap cut short by sam spilling foam letters all over the back seat.

When we arrived at the airport it was completely deserted, we flew through check in, grabbed something to eat, frugally exchanged our monies. Everything was running smoothly. Until we went to board. Finding that not only had our flight been canceled, but waiting for us at checking was jetstar's latest record attempt at the world's longest line. An hour, multiple reassurances that we were in the right line and 20 metres later we were called to the front counter over loud speaker. Not completely wasted, an hour spent in line afforded numerous opportunities to abuse the phase 'dat shit be cray'.  A phase which I'm sure by the end of this trip will have lost what little meaning it once had.

After a frantic dash to the boarding gate and numerous threats to unleash our wraith upon jetstar, we made it.

Sacrificing leg room for a lack of responsibility, Sam and I sat second from the front. One away from the emergency exit. We simultaneously realise this is the first time either of us have been seated in front of the wing. A thought upon which sam decides he must meditate.
