Waiting to board our flight to Beijing.   With Air China 😱 Hope they have newer planes than those I watched take off from Essendon airport in 1969/70 when they bought Ansett’s old Viscounts!!! We were so pleased to see them go, didn’t consider them very airworthy!  Air China passengers are entertained in the Singapore Airlines lounge but to be honest there’s not much to photograph so saves me thinking about it!  Wheelchair  option at check-in was interesting - wait for someone to come or I do the wheeling, I opted for the latter as would have missed the lounge area since we might have waited an hour for a wheeler!  Anyway, all good, I’m gathering brownie points already.  And 2 Sav Blancs have helped. Next post from Beijing.  We arrive at 5 am so don’t wait up!!!!!  M X
