Day one of immigrating to Australia is now officially completed.
Day flight from Kuala Lumpur: 8 hours. No sleep. Watching series on iPad as the plane had no in-house entertainment system. When offering the choice of food, the long-lashes air hostesses had the big smiles of
salesmen who KNOW you will regret the choice the moment you have the product in your hands, but with the knowledge that you have their product, or..... Nothing.
Brisbane International Airport. Survived without any casualties.
First night sleep - wouldn't have survived without half a sleeping tablet. Serious sleep-deprivation combined with the emotions of ARRIVING caused a good measure of panic around 3am. I would have taken ANY plane ANYWHERE - except that I couldn't decide where to go! It was a horrible feeling realising I can't go 'home'. There is no 'home' back home. This...... THIS is now 'home'.
