Booked our flights
Well we are visiting our family again this year. We did not go last year due to hubby having hip replacement last December.
We have pushed the boat out this time. Although we can ill afford it we have booked business class with Emirates. We had decided we would not go again because the travelling is a killer. If you have read my report of our last visit and our ordeal of passing through Heathrow you will understand why. However our Grandson will be 21 on New Years Eve so we will be there to celebrate it with him. This time we will fly from Manchester via Dubai and hopefully the experience will be better. We leave 2nd December and depart NZ 9th January so will have Christmas in the sunshine we hope.
As usual I will post what we get up to whilst we are there. Nothing planned as yet maybe play it by ear this time.
