Made it so far! After a very late night I woke up at 10am this morning. I'd missed breakfast but Brenton had gone down and got me some bagels and cream cheese! Hehe he knows me well. I managed to get dressed and cleaned up without incident (I was really wonky on the crutches yesterday for some reason!). We checked out and headed for the airport. I left the Zimmer frame in the room. Oops!! We had to stop for fuel. After turns out its all prepaid. Once Brenton worked out it didn't like the first credit card we were on our way. The plan was to get there nice and early so Brenton could park in the car park get a wheelchair get me inside, move all the bags and the return the avis car (which is a 5 minutes bus ride from the terminal) we took the wrong lane though and ended up at the terminal! So I got out and waited while Brenton parked in the car park ($3 for an hour and he could see me from where he parked!) brought the bags over and checked in. It worked out way better than expected! We then checked all the bags except a backpack (I learnt the hard way coming over as I had my hands full when descending the stairs!) then I got a wheelchair and a lovely guy oscar wheeled me to the air Canada lounge. I think I'm getting a skewed view of immigration as I got to skip the queue! Seeing I couldn't walk through the metal detectors without crutches I got to get patted down! They still had to scan my shoe but not my watch? I got explosive tested as well. Lol this trip is just full of firsts! Now I'm just waiting in the lounge for the flight in 5 hours time. So I'll land in Adelaide in 28 hours time...yaaaaaaaay! I then have an appointment at flinders and will be admitted for surgery on Saturday morning. I'm sure I'll get to rest at some stage right? :)
