Well I'm back at Melbourne Airport again - waiting, again. Had a very eventful and stressful journey to Sydney airport. I booked a shuttle bus which is the usual way of getting to the airport from the hostel. A pickup an hour before I was due to be at the airport. The heavens opened at 2pm as the bus arrived - torrential rain. I don't think I should write my inpression of the driver, lets just say I was less than impressed, there was one irish girl on the bus and we went on to collect 5 other people which would not have been a problem had the driver known what he was doing. It took 1 and half hours to get the domestic terminal including going to a wrong hotel - then getting to the correct hotel through the central of Sydney then out through the flooded roads. I had serious doubts that I was going to be on time to check in - especially when I saw that it was a automatic ckeck-in via terminals - and I didn't have time to learn how it worked, I spotted a Qantas ground-staff person, put on my helpless tourist look (wasn't hard, as that was what I was) and she sent me to the front of the queue. I made it by the skin of my teeth. Not a happy experience.......
