Where Are We Sleeping Tonight: Perth, Western Australia On the plane trip from LA I managed to spend a lot of the time watching the inflight entertainment system - Suckerpunch, Morning Glory, Unstopable, Toast, Rio, the entire first season of Episodes. I did manage to squeeze in some sleep though... somewhere...
In Auckland we had to go through another baggage scan to enter the departure lounge, despite having gone through one in LA before boarding. They found our bottle of maple strip that I had forgotten about and LA somehow missed! Good to see LAX security are doing their job so well! I so don't see the point of the 100ml law - it is stupid and clear doesn't work, and as Penn & Teller mentioned in their show, will not stop terrorists from doing something destructive. Much like Clare being stopped from entering the club in Chicago, the purpose of the law has been forgotten and now innocent people are being unfairly punished. I wish there was a way that I could get my point across to people who matter, namely those people who have the power to change those laws. Hopefully I will have calmed down by the time we board the plane for our 7 hour flight to Perth!
We had Burger king for lunch (at 9am) and Clare said the drink straws were funny because they are skinny. Ihad to point out that they are normal sized straws and that we had sadly become accustomed to the large sized gulping straws we got everywhere in the USA. What an effect 2 months of total emersion in the American culture has had.
