Flying to the Past

Tonight, after being in New Zealand for 30 days, I am flying back to Dallas. Travelling like this is weird, mainly because the time zones are so far apart that it is like I am flying to the past.

For example:
Today is Thursday, January 21st in New Zealand, my plane leaves at 6:05 pm.

but…

I land in Los Angeles on Thursday, January 21st at noon.

Is that isn’t crazy I don’t know what is.

If you were wondering, I go from New Zealand to Fiji which is around 4 hours.

Wait in Fiji for my flight for 2 hours.

Then from Fiji to LA, which is more than 9 hours… on a plane. Ugh.

Then, LA to Dallas.

I like travelling, but I enjoy being in the place a lot more than the process. It can get very tedious, very fast. If you don’t know, planes are very uncomfortable, I am tall and my legs are long… so, for me the best thing to do when travelling is sleep. Lately I have bee able to do it in my flights quite a bit. Hopefully, on the one from Fiji to LA I will be able to sleep around 8 hours, that would be fantastic.

So, have a good night… and a pleasant tomorrow… whenever that is.
