Australia to Barcelona



We had a good flight .
Cathay has good food and we had movies to watch. I also watched Jamies cooking. Jim watched heaps more movies than me when he wasnt asleep but I enjoyed the show out the window more. I got to see the coast up to Cairns then the night lights of Hong Kong with heaps of container boats in the ocean and then Russia with many miles of uninhabited mountains and Poland,lots of places I didnt know the names of like Omst, Kararanga and Kiev but the best bit was the Dolomites. It never ceases to amaze me how much of the world there is .
On the next flight we saw the coast of Spain and we had to fly over Spain in a holding pattern as there was a bit of a queue to land.
We arrived at our b and b casa de billy... room very small the rest of the house is beautiful and nicely decorated. It is out near the magic fountain which we will try to get to tonight as last night we were falling sleep over dinner whch we would have been able to finish if they hadnt brought out extra bread and fish balls to try. and if we hadnt bought some lovely pastries just before. Weather here is nice temp and fine whereas it was raining in Milan as we changed planes and quite cool 17 degrees
