DAY 5 – G’DAY AUSTRALIA!


After a combined total of 8500 miles flying and for 17 hours, beneath one of our huge Boeing 777’s jet engine’s was my first view on this trip of Australia – It is pretty unmistakable with it’s stunning coastline giving way to red outback territory. It would still be another 750 miles and an hour and a half of flying before landing in Perth. There was barley a cloud in the sky for the entire flight until we got near Perth and we landed in cloud and rain, I had to convince myself the plane hadn’t turned round and flown hypersonically back to England as the weather was identical, but as soon as I was greeted at immigration with G’day mate how you doing? I knew I had arrived in Australia
