Yes she has!
What pleasure to relax when comfortable in the plane--- and to sleep in a supine position. By the time I arrived at Abu Dhabi, I felt ok.
I saw nothing of the place though except for Charlie Camel and hs friend.
I have some work to do on the internet and stuff so there will not be pics now, except for those that I can get on to FB.
I do not think anything prepared me for the hour long wait for the luggage carousel!!!! There wre so many people, and everyone was becoming slightly impatient as the luggage trolleys belted legs, and bruised feelings.. and the luggage dropped in a singular , isolated fashion upon the belt. By this time there were two planeloads waiting.....
and it was hot
and the man who stood next to me had an issue with his deodorant or maybe he had lost it just this morning.
But I was OK, cos I had landed in Kuwait. I did leave my watch in Abu Dhabi. Being required to remove the watch when going throughcustoms is not always needed but today it was and, I , in a daze..... exited stage left to the Gate 48 , on the other side of the terminals!!!
I survived.
and it is now 20 to 8 a.m and i do not know what to do with myself as I dont want to go to bed but it is pretty hot outside! It is around 40 ish
In my building we have a gym and an outdoor pool- how good is that.
Impressions? Met a few future colleagues who had arrived at a similar time to me. Had an excellent welcoming committe- great stuff!
I am looking forward to tomorrow as the orieintation programme begin then...
and we are going shopping!!!!!
