Stopped

No more flying for 36 hours. Sleep.

Business Smartium – OZ602 – SYD-ICN

On board OZ602, in something they’re calling “Business Smartium Class”. I can’t make this up.

Please follow along with the safety information card…
A convenient place to hang my jacket

Last meal on the ground for about 38 hours.

Badu Gili

Every night there’s a light show named Badu Gili displayed on part of the opera house “that explores ancient First Nations stories in a spectacular seven-minute projection.”

Polaris Dinner

The first course of second dinner last night/earlier/whatever – Smoked duck, farro salad with dried cranberries, brined carrots, whole grain mustard. The salad is Mesclun, mozzarella, grape tomato, and olive.

Dessert

My body has no idea what to do with itself – but somehow coffee and dessert seemed like a good idea?

Polaris Lounge – LAX

With over an hour until boarding – take advantage of all the things and chill in the Polaris lounge. Two legs finished, luggage situation being managed. In less than 17 hours there might be a bed waiting for me.

Restrooms, shower suites, and dining at the Polaris lounge at LAX.

Time

It’s just a big ball of timey-wimey stuff.

The time in every zone on the trip.
