Free internet at Singapore Airport so I will start with yesterday.
I was sitting at home organising the tickets (yes, a bit late considering we are leaving in the afternoon) when I noticed that the rental car place we are picking up a car from in Paris on a Sunday is closed on Sunday! Brilliant!!! First panic call to Andrea (our travel agent). It's sorted.
I then finally pack my case (Tina did hers 2 days ago). It's too heavy so out comes spare pjs, a vest, monopod (which I had purchased for this trip), nice walking jandals and toiletries. But the real problem is my small, carry-on case. Limit is 7kgs and it weighs 12! The weight is mostly maps and info that I never got round to sort so it all goes in. I've been slack and the case is unstable.
Off to Palmy Airport and I misplace my board pass. Great start. Tina is building up ammunition.
At Auckland Airport I buy a new, stable and slightly larger carry-on bag. Hugely expensive - they saw us coming - but it's a great case.
Stay the night at Ventura - pleasant little room, air con, clean, good for a night. No meals so we order in Indian. I can recommend the very green Lamb Saagwala but the Onion Bhaji was stodgey.
