So, Today is the day and we are off on our way!
The morning really started when the clock past midnight on Friday when we were still up organizing things. Then after a few hours in the bed it was back up and going.
Our chauffeurs arrived in the form of Spankys parents (The president and first lady) who took us to Melbourne airport, had some traditional Pre-flight McDonalds and then escorted us to the gate to make sure we got on the right flight.
The hour and 10 mins to Sydney was quick and easy. We arrived at the international transfer lounge in time to walk out the door again and off to our second flight of the trip.
TRIVIA: It is 12200 kilometers from Sydney to L.A.
Through immigration we went and to all those people who thought that Bubbles was an international master criminal you were right. He still managed to get through and we boarded the flight.
The 12hr flight was pretty good and the time never seemed to stand still. The personal entertainment systems were great and really made the trip go quickly. The food was quite tasty, but the beef strog was not as good as Spanky’s. We were joined on our flight by “Team Australia”, heading off to the world Cheerleading and dance championships.
Spanky didn’t fair too well with the continuous turbulence that we had for a few hours on the flight, but once her feet hit sold ground, she perked up and was hungry for some grease and salt in the form of a burger.
We arrived in LA at 430pm on Saturday, over half an hour early. We had to wait at the airport for over five hours before we could depart for Orlando.
Much to our delight those cheerleaders and dancers from the long hurl flight joined us on the cross country trip to Orlando. So that they could compete at none other than the first stop on our trip, Disney World.
Our flight to Orlando left on time at 1010pm. Both Bubbles and Spanky were very very tired and fell asleep shortly after takeoff.
