Foilsithe: 17.10.2017
At 5:10 sharp, we were ready to check in for our flight, only to be hit with the words 'Flight Cancelled' and a complete motivation dampener.
But we, being positive people, took it in stride, especially since we were kindly given a breakfast voucher and the next flight is at 'only' 15:00, which means we still have time to make it to Kings Canyon.
So we're off to enjoy a huge indulgent breakfast to fill our bellies. We'll spend the morning doing activities such as: checking out what there is to do here (not much, it's just a small airport), reading our books, briefly getting annoyed that the warm and fuzzy long pants ended up in the big backpack, catching up on the days we missed in the travel blog 😉, and sitting around a lot.
At lunchtime, the shock sets in: the replacement flight is also delayed and won't depart until 21:00 😐
After a brief phase of frustration and intense re-planning, the mood starts to improve again because we are given lunch and dinner, as well as a hotel in Alice Springs.
Now all that's left to do is wait, wait, wait and hope that nothing else comes up.
