Sit down & belt up. Let’s get airborne!

Hey, the V Australia’s 777 is actually a reasonably roomy aircraft.  Nice and modern too.  Lots of gadgets to play with, should keep me entertained for at least five minutes.   Hmmm, just thinking about all those extra gadgets . . in the back of my mind I recall an Air Crash Investigation program on TV a couple of years ago which centered on cabin electronics failure causing a fire.  D’oh!

 How come I always get the guy with a big head or hat on in front of me?  Same thing happens at the movies.  Speaking of movies, the entertainment package on this plane held heaps of movies and documentaries, all viewable at no charge.  Yes, that is correct, FREE.

 Did I mention that the flight from Brisbane to LA is over 13 hours.  13 hours echo echo echo . . Arrrghhhh!

Sydney Australia – Travel Tips

So here are some travel tips for things to do in Sydney, Australia!

Sydney Beaches

Sydney is renowned for its beach-side suburbs, which include Manly, Bondi and Cronulla plus plenty more. During summer, these beaches are packed full of swimmers, who flock to enjoy the city’s beautiful sandy beaches. Like Rio de Janiero and Los Angeles, Sydney is somewhat unique in that it’s a major metropolis surrounded by beautiful beaches, making it an ideal holiday spot. If you’re heading to the beach in Sydney, don’t forget your sunglasses, hat, and sunscreen, as the UV rays here are extremely high.
