The journey back from the UK to NZ got a bit longer than planned when the first flight was delayed landing which meant I – along with dozens of others – found ourselves being booked onto the following day’s flight and shuttled off to a local hotel.
While I would very much like to be home it’s not been the worst detour. I got to check out one of the new railway stations they’ve built all around Dubai and managed to get some sleep and a couple of showers so I am setting off on the long 13 hour flight much fresher than this time yesterday.
I could do without the low level cold that’s been threatening to develop through most of the holiday. I have been dealing with a simultaneous runny and blocked nose since setting off, and blown it so much and so vigorously I’ve been having regular profuse nosebleeds.
