Getting here..

Last night we flew from Melbourne to Darwin, got in about 1:30AM and then spent the night sleeping on the airport floor until our flight to Bali departed at 7AM. Surprisingly, I actually slept a lot. The secret to airport sleeping, I think, is a blanket. Even if you're in Darwin and it's not cold at all. I could sleep a lot better knowing I was less visible to the AFP whose airport office we were sleeping outside of, and everyone that was walking in and out of the sliding doors on our other side. Having slept most of the time there, I thought I'd conquered airport sleeping.. that is until I went to the bathroom and looked in the mirror... eyes puffy, dark bags under my eyes, and dry irritated skin from the airconditioning (or perhaps the carpet?). I looked like death.
Arrived in Bali this morning, checked into our pre-booked accom. and spent the day on the beach. It's a tough life. Still adjusting to having ample time to do whatever you want and no schedule or work to do!
Bit of a difference in the quality of accommodation over the past 2 nights, heh! Shelled out a bit extra for our first night in Bali... unfortunately the room smells strongly of Morteine and moth balls.
