Hello guys and gals! I hope you're all doing splendidly well and having a brilliant time, wherever you may be.I just realised that I've recently passed a (minor) blogging milestone - I've been up for a whole year! Sheesh, I feel as if it's been only 3 months still. So, the stats for the site... total blog hits (since I put up adsense ads after the Gulf News article and found a way to count such visits) - 3015 Total posts - 93. Kinda disappointed I didn't manage to make the 100 mark, but hey, turnarounds are not realy worth writing and taking photos about. Total flights out of DXB - 61. To be honest I feel as if I've done more. Different Stamps in the passport - 4. China, Korea, UAE and Australia. When I joined I was looking forward to getting these, as it's like a badge of honour. Was disappointed to find out that this wasn't the case. Coolest Layover so far - Osaka, especially visiting Osaka castle during the cherry blossom season. Place I still want to visit the most - Kiev, Ukraine. Pity we don't fly there yet. If I do one thing over the next year of blogging, it will be - To visit the Burj Al Arab. I have another Perth flight coming up on Valentines Day which should be interesting (ie. the day will involve me cleaning out the aircraft of anything containing chocolate trying to repress feelings towards my pathetic single status) and after that my annual leave! I have to visit my mum on this trip though, as I was a bad daughter and didn't visit her on the 9th. Any sandgropers that want to catch up just send me an email and I'll see what I can conjure up.
