So I visited Melbourne this evening. Just for the heck of it.

nar.

My flight from Brisbane to Canberra was due to arrive in Canberra at 9.20 pm or so. However, there were some big storms in the region (and at the airport), so we flew around in circles for a bit (apparently, I was asleep at the time). But the lights at Canberra got knocked out, so we went to Melbourne to get some more fuel, and kill some time while they fixed the lights. We got in at about 11.40 pm or so.

I didn't really think much of Melbourne, although I probably should add that I didn't leave the plane (wasn't allowed), and my view was limited to a refuelng truck and a guy in a hi-vis vest. Woop-di-doo.

And so I'm back in Canberra for at least until Tuesday morning (taken Thursday and Friday off, Monday is an RDO). We'll see what happens.
