Who Says There are 24 hours in a Day?
We took off from the airport at 11:59pm on January 3rd. The plane had just arrived from Sao Paulo and was on its way to Auckland and Sydney so there was an interesting mix of Brazilians, Uruguayans, Argentines, New Zealanders, Australians, among others on the plane. It really struck me that we were leaving South America when Em told a teenager from Australia that it would be fine if they changed seats and she replied "Thanks heaps!" in a strong Australian accent.
After 13 and a half hours of flying (partially over the Southern Antarctic) we arrive in Auckland at 5:30 in the morning on January 5th. Who says there are 24 hours in a day?
