So I spent Wednesday puking. What we have finally deemed to be a virus of some sort (there’s been 4 people already who have come down with it). I’m glad it wasn’t today or even on Friday during my flight. Imagine that. Puking on a plane every hour. Not like the 12 hour plane ride is long enough already. Today I feel almost back to normal.

I also got a phone call from United Airlines today. When the girl on the other end mentioned she was calling from United I instantly knew that a flight had been canceled. Sure enough, the last leg from Japan to Taipei had been canceled. Nice. The first option she gave me, would’ve been for me to land at 11:40 - 2 1/2 hours from my original time, going through Tokyo instead of Nagoya. I asked if there was anything else and she finally found one going through China instead. I land in Taiwan at 9:40 now instead of 9:10 pm. Which isn’t all that bad. I can’t remember what airline she said but I think it’s Eva Air.

I’ll post something up here if I have some time over the next several weeks.

Here’s hoping they don’t lose my luggage!

    Merry Christmas Matt,
    That flu thing really sucks we all had it at the same time here!But thankfully before Christmas.

    Okay Matty, It’s been a day here without you and we are all wondering where you are… did you make it to Taiwan… was the flight okay… how does Amanda look… where you nervous… how do I add pictures to my website again… (okay, so it’s just me asking the picture question, but one day and I already miss my IT guy).

    Please write when you can - a call would be great, but just to hear you made it okay would be nice.

    Take care and enjoy. Give lots of hugs and kisses to Amanda from everyone here. I am sure that won’t be a tough request.

    Love, Shaun, Dione, Mum Lockyer, and sleepless Tristyn with a tooth.
