So today was just a slow sort of day had a pretty good sleep after my long flight, after getting ready for the day i went along with Esmee to take Johnathan to daycare for the day, so that i would know what to do when i take him along for 2 days a week.
afterwards just sat around the house for a wee bit, then headed down into the city for some lunch, first we had to make a couple of stops, before we went down to the waterfront, we went to a great little restaurant called il lido it was a nice little place situated by the made up beach, that is made so that it is safe to swim in from the crocodiles, jellyfish and also sharks.
Had a Steak and Mushroom pie which was fantastic very good, served with chips and salad.
then just drove around for a bit and also got myself a sim card. later went and picked Johnathan back up and just potted around the house again before dinner :)

Hello Darwin
Finally after what felt to be a slightly long flight i have, although not as long as when i headed to Berlin,
at 6am i flew from Christchurch to Sydney, it took almost forever to get through the check in at the christchurch airport.
the flight to Sydney was good, i was in the middle seat so i didn't see much out of the window, i got free entertainment so i watched a movie, the movie that i watched was Planet of the Apes (2001) it was a good movie.
also had breakfast which was pretty average breakfast, eggs, baked beans, sausages and fruit but with a good cup of tea to go with it :).
once we landed in Sydney it was a nice day but cold and wet, didn't end up taking all that long to go through customs and get my bag before i headed off to find the train to be able to head to the domestic terminal that i needed to get too, after that i got myself all checked in quickly ffor my last flight then i just pretty much relaxed and waited before i could go, had a wee snack and checked out the Qantas heritage centre which was pretty cool to learn about the long history of the airline.
The flight out of sydney which left there at 12pm, was very bumpy as it was very cloudily and happily i got the window seat i watched a movie called Captain America: The WinterSolider which was actually pretty good to watch, i had also watched a little bit of Call the midwife, sherlock, Big Bang Theory and listened to a bit of Johnny Cash as the plane was coming into land
Had such a yummy lunch on the plane it was just great Roasted pumpkin pasta, with creamy spinach sauce it was just great mmmm
its so cool flying over the length of Australia because the landscape changes a lot and it looks just great
flying into Darwin was ok expect when we went to land think that the pilot went a bit fast as we skidded hard the the plane went sideways.
Esmee and wee Johnathan was there waiting for me which was great, didn't feel the heat either for awhile once i arrived, i was pretty exhausted by the time i got there, we went to have a coffee and a yummy carrot cake, then headed back to their very lovely house and just relaxed for a bit. :)

Two Weeks
In exactly 2 weeks I will be on my way to Darwin, I can't wait :), I have my tickets all sorted for my flight, at least I have enough time to figure out how to get from the international terminal to the domestic one.
only thing really left to do is pack my bag, at least I still have all my summer clothes which is just great :)
before I do leave I will be visting with my grandma in Kaikoura for a bit as well as catching up with as many friends as I can in Dunedin :).
Im excited and I must say I feel so much more relaxed this time
