and we land in Sydney on Thursday 11th June at 06.35am
We have decided to go out in style so we used our Virgin miles to upgrade ourselves to Upper Class. Gus is already planning what to do in the Virgin Clubhouse at Heathrow - spa, jacuzzi, massage, manicure, cocktails, dinner - who actually needs to travel - you could just stay there.
We are facing a packing crisis though. When you fly to the USA, the baggage allowance is 2 pieces (3 in Upper) each of which can weigh up to 25 kg. For flights to Australia and anywhere else East there is a different system. A total weight limit applies, which for us will be 30kg each. Now when we go on a cruise we normally take 2 cases each, so surviving for the 2 months before our shipped belongings turn up presents a real challenge. Gus' haircare regime alone demands its own suitcase.
And we are headed for a winter season........we need a capsule wardrobe - a fashion makeover. We need Gok.
Hmmm... Challenges, challenges... I'm so glad you're flying Upper Class - that's a real treat and actually, a necessity for a trip that long. What, might I ask, is Gok? xoxo, Jill in Miami
