32-Hour Journey from Down Under to the Alps: A Business Class Adventure

I think this is one of the longest travel days I’ve ever done. It’s gonna be 32 hours from Sydney to Freiburg. Freiburg in Switzerland started at Sydney Airport. I went to the lounge, the in New Zealand lounge and had some chicken gyros. These were delicious and then some salad because the diet is still living on and a Coke Zero. These all the treats in the lounge couldn’t have any of them. Actually, wait, I did try this cookie and I didn’t like it so I didn’t eat it. And then we’re getting on the flight. I never fly business class, but today I was and I was so excited. This is me getting into all my little goodies and then getting my pajamas because I’d only gotten home from Europe like two weeks ago and I’m flying back to Europe. I decided that I was gonna go business class and I was able to lie down the hallway. I started off with a little mint and lime juice and some nuts and then I had some steak and veg and mash for dinner followed by this little fudge ice cream thing and then I had a little peppermint tea to wash it all down. And then this is me crying. I always cry in movies on planes. Um, then I slept and then I had breakfast which was like an omelette and then we’re in Doha and because I was in business, I could go to the lounge. In Doha. So this was the Qatar Business Lounge. It was very big. Upstairs is where you could like have proper food but I wasn’t really hungry so I went to this like deli place and I just had some light snacks, some muesli and some yoghurt and some fruit and then because we’re still racing, the season goes on, I needed to do a bit of a shakeout. So I found this little quiet area in the lounge and I did some stretching and my body was actually feeling pretty good. I was just so tired. Then it was time to fly to Frankfurt. This flight was 6 hours and this business class was so nice. It had a door and I was just loving it. Um, it did make the travel a lot more enjoyable and it was a novelty. There’s my door. On this flight I watched two movies and I was feeling a bit sick so I didn’t really eat anything. I just kept drinking tea and water and I was next to a window and I couldn’t believe how big this jet was like compared to the wing of the plane, they were massive. Anyway, that’s the food I ate. It was like this fish thing and rice. It was so yum. And I watched Big Hero 6, one of my favourite movies. And then finally we’re on our last flight to Geneva. It was on this tiny plane and I was so tired as Soon as I sat in my seat, I just slept the whole way. People must have thought I was really hungover or something. And then we’re in Freiburg. This is the next day. We made it. It was a two hour drive from Geneva to Freiburg. And I’m racing tomorrow and I have my own room, which was the cherry on top at the end.
