New Record for Time Spent Sleeping on a Plane.

Well I've arrived safe and well in Santiago, Chile. Only one casualty so far and that was my amazing Suunto Watch which I forgot to pick-up going through my first security check on the flight from Melbourne to Sydney. Doh! Hopefully it will be handed in and a friend can pick it up.

The flight from Sydney to Santiago was great. Business class makes a huge difference. The food is as good as a 4 star hotel and the leg room is 5 times that of economy. You get proper pillows and a duvet which combined with a near flat reclining seat meant I slept at least 8 hours straight (although I can't be sure as I couldn't tell the time!)

Currently i'm staying the night in an airport hotel and had a nice spa and sauna. Another 4hr flight tomorrow takes me down to Punta Arenas where I start a tour to a Penguin colony and then the real fun begins....
