Bring it on!

4 sleeps and we will be on our way - how cool is that? I remember booking flights in February and back then it seemed like forever. And here we are now. It's scary how time flies.
It's time to pack the bags. Bit different than usual because I'm not packing as a pilot but as a team captain. There is so many additional things to think about that my "packing list" for overseas competitions is pretty much useless. We have to do what we have to do though and try not to forget any essential items. Here is the first attempt:


Looking good, doesn't it? I have never thought that a day would come when I go to the supermarket to buy Vegemite. It just happened - yes, it is a jar of Vegemite in the middle of all the gadgets. We take it for the international night to see how people react. One thing is for sure - the Brits will love it but what about the rest of the world? It will require lots of discipline from me to actually prepare Vegemite sandwiches for the night. But I will try, I promise.

I will be posting parallel on the official Australian Gliding Team Facebook page:
Just the official stuff though. Private matters will be available here.

Bring it on!
