Getting over this sickness.
Yeah sickness, I’ve got a bit a flu, i don’t think it’s going to last long but it’s been contributing to lacking energy to writing a full post like I want to so bear with me. It will be up soon….
oh what’s that…, an RSS feed subscribe to it, yeah please do. Commens should work now so let me know what you think of past and future posts.

More to come in future posts.
My journey has started!
I’ve arrived in barcelona via 3 planes and6 hours or so of sleep. I estimate I spent almost 24 hours in planes and in transit, I could work out the exact amount of hours but frankly i’m way too tired to do that.
Singapore was fucking humid. left perth at about 3:30pm and arrived in Singapore 4 hours later and we (my mum and I) had time between flights and she wanted a smoke so we went up to the outside smokers area, which has a bar and strangely a cactus garden but what ever. I have to say that airport must have shit hot air con because it was chilly inside but stepping outside was fucking death.
I can't believe this fucking heat or this haircut.
fuck it was humid. apparently it was 27′C outside but it was humid enough that it felt like35′C+ instant layer of sweat all over your body. really disgusting. but the cactus garden was nice. The airport was huge.
next up was the longest flight of them all 12 hours and 30 minutes. Jesus. at first I thought it would be fine i’d just watch movies on my own personal DVD player thing all the way through because the seat wasn’t uncomfortable (not to be confused with being comfortable). it was bearable. Being the behemoth (thanks Richard) i am though my plan soon came apart as it become very uncomfortable and the only thing i could do to bear it was fall asleep. which was hard. anyway here are some snap shoots of France’s country side at about 5am. also on this flight i watched willy wonka: charlie and the chocolate factory….. it was good but it was shit because the original was better.
(click to enlarge)
that's some lake.
There's a bit of the wing to prove i was on a plane at the time of the photo (as opposed to falling from the sky...wtf)
there’s more of the same which I’ll add to a gallery later. shortly after these photos we arrived at Charles De Gaulle Airport where everyone was lovely and french. after waiting around for a bit and spending about an hour and a half getting to our next flight we were off on our final leg of the journey, off to Barcelona…..
an hour and half later.
oh look it's Barcelona airport.
At this point i was exhausted. A women named Elena and some guy who was born on the same year written on my jumper(old and deaf) were there to pick us up, they are friends of mother. The ride from the airport to my mothers apartment was mostly through tunnels so i didn’t get to see much of the city during the first hour of so of being in Barcelona. I did notice though that the driving their was a bit more chaotic and the old guy(I apologise i don’t remember his name) driving the car was worst than everyone else on the road.
We arrive at my mothers apartment were we promptly unpack, go shopping for food, eat, then I promptly fall asleep.
tl;dr summary
Charlie and the chocolate factory (the remake) was not as good as good as the original. there are lovely french people. I’m a behemoth. for the most part the flight was uncomfortable.
More to come later, Much love
Stephan
