Melbourne to Dubai – 25/6/2013
Millennium Hotel
All packed up and ready! Dad had offered to drive me to the airport, so by 12:30am I was on my way to the airport, after saying farewell to my puppy Rufus.
Arrived at the airport, said goodbye to my father, grabbed my bags, checked-in and boarded then plane.
A short stop at Kuala Lumpur, Arrived at the Dubai airport,
customs took forever, then found out I didn’t have the free hotel room Emirates
promised for my 15 hour layover.
Had to pay $200 for the same room I was supposed to get for
free. My bag was in Emirates luggage back at the airport and my carry on was
mostly tech gear, no swim shorts or even a toothbrush. Swam at the hotel pool
in my briefs, 2 hours of tanning in the dry 45 degree heat. In bed by 9pm, up
at 530am for breakfast and got the free hotel chauffeur to the airport where I
met up with Liz Jacobson at the gate.
