Day 1 - Canberra to Sydney

I'm here YAY!! And in one piece :) Big, big thanks to Michelle for driving the mess that was me at 11.30am to catch my bus - and thanks for the hugs and well wishes from the amazing Reid crew at work :)

My room (as you can see) at Airport Hotel Sydney - while it's very small, it's proximity to the airport is amazing - 10 minute shuttle ride, it's on main roads so it's very very LOUD :(

I can't wait to get a good night's sleep and then wake up early and head over to the airport to check in, then get on board my first flight... It's surreal to think that i will soon be in Europe - wow...
