Almost home
So, im in LA, the plane ride was fine...oooh wait, no it wasn't.
Sam and Gareth took me to the airport for a 9:45 flight, it was a little sad but i was fine, infront of them at least. So i get on the plane and it takes off a little late, maybe 10:15pm. Not a huge deal, we have supper, it was good, then about 3 hours into the flight, the flight attendant comes on the PA with this announcement "Ladies and gentlemen, im afraid i ahve some bad news, some rather serious news" at this point my heart was beating into the seat infront of me "a gentleman in our business has become very ill and we are going to turn around and head back toAuckland, its a matter of life and death" 3 hours in, that means 6 hours of flight wasted. So the plane was turned around and we got back to Auckland at around 2am NZ time. The EMT's come on the plane but were not moving very fast, which i think means that some time in the 3 hours, the guy died. Yeah, death flight. We manage to leave Auckland (again) at about 3am and i arrive into LAX at 7pm, almost 5 hours late. My 12 hour trip ended up taking a total of 17 hours, clearly, Auckland didnt want me to leave.
How crazy is that! But now im in LA and i dint sleep at all last night, stupid jet lag, but its nice to be home, it is. I'll be in LA til Saturday night then Back to Boston to begin reality.
I may Blog again, but once i get back to Boston, thats it. Later!
