Start of trip

Well I left last night from LAX on what was supposed to be a non stop flight to Melbourne. Because of winds, we had to taxi to a different runway to fly out and then burned more fuel fighting the winds so rather then running out of fuel, we landed in Brisbane. About 3 hours late, we finally arrived in Melbourne. Went to the Eureka Tower today but I was not brave enough to go out on the Edge. Had Colonial Tramcar dinner. Ready to get some sleep. More tomorrow.
