Me and my silly flight changes...

I don't know how, but I have yet again suceeded in pwning the system by my inability to try, and reliability on dad being smart (ie, choosing Emirates for me... because it was a good deal).

I am drinking Moet and have finally been able to upload some photos online. I have eaten a small prawn crabcake, fresh celery, cheese, Persian Lamb, and am wondering if I have time for one of those lovely salads... hmmm... or more cheese. It's a very gluttonous atmosphere here, I must say. Isn't that Uncle Him's favorite deadly sin?

Anyway, THANKS EMIRATES. I hope to always be on standby with you... and cheers, New Zealand; from Palmy and parents, to Stray and strange friends, to Joan and the city, to surprises and Sara, this has been good. I'll be back soon.

PS: The lady who keeps calling me "Miss Selby" and helping me with my ticket, is named "Clare." Teehee!

This is really too much!!! I thought the first class upgrade on your New Year's flight was the ultimate, but no, you topped it. Do the flight attendants have veils on their hats? They look cool.

Yes, our children have many flight experiences from standing outside the Auckland airport at 5 am wondering about calling a taxi to, well, Claire's experience. But ... it's all good. In some cases, apparently very good. Time to go post something on the selbies blog, I guess.

HEhe, yes please! I want more sister travel!!! And don't forget, I tried to take a taxi to Palmy from Melbourne... actually, maybe you should forget that. Yes, they have veils on their hats, but take them off when we take off (hah).

Also, did Isabelle last log on as Mom?

How could I log on as Mere? Impossible!

Actually, not so impossible as I know all of her passwords.

Family Announcement: We (and everyone related to me) can't do the Amazing Race until I leave my job at CBS. SORRY!!!!
