Takeoff…

Getting started! As I chose Emirates to get down to Australia I took off at Düsseldorf going via Dubai to Perth. The night before I checked in online, so I was able to choose a seat, which turned out to be a idea because when I got there I had a hole row for myself. At least to Dubai. I enjoyed the flight but could not get any sleep after all. When we touched down on Dubai airport at six o’clock in the morning the captain told us that it was already 36°C outside. Being in Dubai was no fun at all. There was no place where one could have a rest, just thousand of people wondering and sitting around. The only good thing was the very cheap duty free shopping and that I found a place to get some rest after all. The Boing from Dubai to Perth was much newer than the previous one and although I did not have a hole row for myself I had a window seat and the food was just as good as on the one before. After having breakfast and something to drink I finally fell asleep for about six hours. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz… So all I had to do know was to have dinner (again, very delicious) watch a movie and wait until touchdown. After that I had to get through the passport inspection and the check whether you are brining something into Australia they do not want you to. Which is quite a lot SEE HERE. Finally being a free and legal tourist in Australia I found my host mom who picked me up from the airport at 1am and we drove to my new home for the next five weeks…
