Waiting

We had to get up at 4.30am for our ride to Dubai Airport. Our flight leaves at 8.30am and does not arrive in Auckland until 11.00am Saturday morning. Allowing for an 8 hour time difference it will take approximately 18 and a half hours including a 2 hour refuelling stop in Kuala Lumpur.
After that we have to wait until 3pm for our flight to Christchurch arriving just after 4pm. I note that the temperature in Christchurch will be around 15 degrees, a drop of around 20 degrees from the temperature that we are currently experiencing.
