SAAK’s Excellent Sydney Adventure pt i

Okay, there are a couple of things wrong with that title, obviously, it is a straight up and down rip off and well, lets be honest here little of SAAK existence or experiences could be referred to as either excellent or adventurous. But hey, you’ve read this far and for this SAAK thanks you.

Now SAAK would like to take the time to preface this thing by letting you know, he, during this whole Sydney excursion, did the touristy thing, took picys to share, the whole nine yards. Sadly SAAK has never owned a camera, so, being the thinker he is .. he just used the phone …. Turns out SAAK does not know how to transfer pictures from a mobile phone to the computer, so every time SAAK refers to a visual aid, use your imagination. SAAK will show you the photos next time we get together.

SAAK may have previously mentioned this but, up to this point, he had been on exactly two aeroplanes, the first was a two seater owned by his first boss… more fun SAAK could not imagine, second was a for weekend down in Melbourne flying from Sydney, so SAAK was a little trepidacious entering a plane that sat only about 30 people. This consternation was not eased went, the pilot announced that, due to windy conditions, the plane was 20 minutes a head of schedule…the flight was only supposed to be an hour.. WHAT.. did we fly into a cyclone, were we in a kite?

Suffice it to say, the plane did land safely, it did, however, do something that still intrigues SAAK a little … coming from the south of old Sydney town, with the airport in the south, the plane flew over the CBD, out over the ocean, then back to the airport.. yes scenic, but surely more the doings of a cab driver, SAAK’s not paying by the k here.

Sorry, SAAK is in the middle of cooking dinner for his two sisters tonight, it’s nearly ready (nothing special, sketty with a bolognaise sauce, chilly, red wine, basil, paprika, cayenne pepper) tastes pretty good so far, you should have been here … plenty to go around…. Back soon

SAAK has two sisters? Is SAAK the middle child, the baby or the eldest?

(I'm going to put my money on middle, but that could be assuming too much.)

Hey Quirkie, right on the money ... SAAK is the poor overlooked middle child. How did you guess?

Finally, a dinner invitation! Sort of.

your plane was probably circling waiting for the tower to give them the go-ahead to use the runway. they hate it when two planes try to land on the same runway at the same time.

You made it back alive. You didn't get shot at or anything! Wonderful. Dinner sounds nice too. Got any garlic bread?
