Dubai - Monday 1.04 am

We are back in Dubai airport less than a month after our last visit, but this is just our transit point on the way to Sydney (13 hours away). Last night snow hit southern England, which is something we don't cope with very well. However we all made it to Heathrow, and the plane was running (many had been cancelled, but mostly to European destinations gripped by far worse weather than the UK). Anyway for three weeks we don't have to think too much about snow and ice as we head to summer in the Southern Hemisphere. Apologies for my smugness - I spent yesterday morning helping a plumber sort out some frozen pipes, so I am ready for warmth.

Having been doing this job for a few years I don't tend to get too over-excited about the actual travel, but our flight from London to Dubai was my first trip on the huge Airbus 380 - it is pretty incredible with a full length upper level, where the engines sound rather distant. I am also very excited by my first tour of Australia and New Zealand. The group had a few successful visits 'down under' in the 1970s, but the growth of the US market squeezed it out. We have been trying to get back there for many years, and we are so delighted that it is at last happening.
