Ok, this is my first entry. To be honest I only found out about this site about 9 hours ago (thanks MD)

It's getting late and I have been loading my information into the site to figure out all the buttons before I leave LOL - hats off to the guys who created it, it's really good.

The countdown begins - I have 6 more working days until I am on holidays and then 14 actual days before I fly out. I am counting down to May the 6th which is departure day.

I think I have everything I need, all the major things at least. I hope to be organised ok, and have the nessecities. In case you don't know, this is my first flight OS. I have travelled a fair bit in Australia, but never out of the country.

I am starting to wonder what the flights will be like? I am ok on planes, that's all good, but I am 6'8" (6'9" on a good day) and I am worried about the lack of leg room. I recently ventured to Sydney for work, 2 days and 1 night. It's a 2.5hr flight, very easy and not too bad. BUT there is absolutely no room behind those seats.

I'm keen to get started, get the flight over and done with, and experience what's out there. I can't to wait and see what the world has to offer, I know it will be wonderful.
