Starting our trip to OZ

So we running down the hall ways of the airport, Late for our first flight. We had our take out in our hands and it was getting all mushed up while we run. We get our bags through the scanner and run to the gate. We made it. Few, but then it dawned on me my Blackberry wans't in my hand anymore. NOOOOOOO I give Tarryn my stuff and run back, the guy at the gate gave me 2 options; get phone and get kicked off the flight or go back and leave my Blackberry behind. So I headed back to our flight crying my eyes out. I called my mom and she freaks out cause I'm in Hysterics, I tell her to get it and she drops everything and sprints to the scanning area. This big black lady stops her and asks her whats on the phone. Thank goodness for Mellow cause all my mom said was "white cat" so she got it back. But mean time in the plane the air hostess tells me the phone is taken to the police station. I quickly sms mom to tell her its at police station but failed to mention what or who. So both moms (Tarryn and my Mom) freak out cause they think we are at the police station. The guy who stopped me in the beginning got hold of them and calmed them down, telling them we were on the plain...

Now that I had calmed down I thought I would tackle my mashed up Bangers and mash. They tasted good if you didn't look at them. The flight to Jo-burg went really quick. When we got there we weren't quite sure where to go so we asked a man working for the airport. He lead us straight to where we had to go. When we were about to check in we realized neither of us had our boarding passes of the previous flight and our tracking numbers where on them for our bags and boards. So we headed all the way back to the other end of the airport to go get the tracking numbers. We eventually got them and checked in. We didn't have any bags with us so that was a life saver. In the airport waiting for our flight we got Hot chocolates and a chocolate crusant which we shared. At this stage I have had 2 liters of water, hot chocolate and an orange juice. lets just say i was walking back and for the the loo a lot. So we got on our flight (in time). I got window and Tarryn got middle. No one was on the Isle so we had heaps of space. I watched bits and pieces of movies and then got Dinner (Beef, mash and veg) whats the chances. We then pretty much fell asleep and woke up when it was Breakfast time. We got off the plain and we were ready for our trip. So it was photo taking time. Tarryn wipped out her new camera that she got the day before and the screen was completely cracked. So she was super bummed but when she realized it could still take pictures but can't see them she smiled.

We then went off to customs and they took my biltong away, kinda saw that coming. Then we headed off to collect our bags. Both of ours arrived and we just praying our boards where there too. We came around the corner of the oversized baggage and there they were. We literally jumped for joy. As we got out we saw a Vodafone stand and got sims to keep in contact back home. We actually got a really good deal. We got some cash and went to find a taxi.

The taxi driver took us straight where we wanted to go and charged us $AUS50, we kinda budgeted for that so it was cool. When we arrive at the place it was so cool, modern and designer. A view too die for and all the channels on t.v you can think of. We made ourselves at home.

We then went for a short surf out front, Ozzies are really friendly. This one guy just started taking to me randomly. When we got out Jo was here and we said our hello's and got comfy on the couch. We ordered some pizzas which were amazing and then watched Zoo Lander. Soo funny...

Tarryn and I were up till about 12 and decided it was time to go to bed. I of course woke up at 4am and couldn't sleep. It took me an hour and I was back in gaga land. I woke up at about 9am and had some coffee. Tarryn got up at about 10am and looked like a Zombie, so funny. So now we gonna have some breakfast and then go explore Sydney....
