Yesterday (March 1st) I visited the Melbourne Aquarium. Sharks, stingers & other fascinating creatures. I almost got swallowed (see picture). Will write more details tomorrow.

Arrived!

I have now arrived in Melbourne, Australia. The trip lasted for 21 hrs, but felt much shorter. Probably because I was in an ecstatic state during the trip, and I still am. Just one switch, in Doha in Qatar. That was the shortest time I have ever been in a terminal. When I entered there was a massive queue, and only 30 minutes until takeoff. To the far left there was a "quick transfer" lane, where some people were allowed to walk, and bypass the entire queue. Well, I moved towards that lane, and behold, I was also allowed in. 5 minutes later I had passed the gate! Wow!
I arrived at 22pm, which is 12am Swedish time. And yes, they have summertime here!

Tonight I slept at a Ciloms Airport Lodge, a hotel close to the Tullamarine airport in Melbourne. Today I will transfer to a more central hotel, and spend two days in Melbourne. I have a list of interesting things to do here (besides sleeping, I am quite jetlagged), but have not yet decided, and I will not tell you. Yet...

The picture is the sunset seen from the aircraft window, about an hour before landing.

Today at 15.20 the plane takes off from Copenhagen Airport, aiming for Melbourne. I will arrive tomorrow at 12.15 Swedish time, or 22.15 local time. I will check in at a hotel at the Tullamarine airport outside Melbourne. More to come when I wake up... :-)

Idag kl 15.20 lyfter jag från Kastrup, med sikte på Melbourne. Jag kommer dit i morgon kl 12.15 svensk tid, eller kl 22.15 lokal tid. Kommer att ta in på ett hotell vid flygplatsen Tullamarine utanför Melbourne. Återkommer med mer när jag vaknar... :-)
