At last, the long awaited day has come!! We made it in very good time - no first class upgrade at the check-in, dammit! We are currently sat waiting for the gate to open, which the lady at the desk warned us is a million miles away! So getting the running shoes ready......

So the battle of the suitcases?

Jo came in the winner with a mere 20.1KG and mine a close 20.3KG!! So loads of space for goodies!

Next time we blog will hopefully be in New Zealand - or maybe a brief L.A update half way through!
