Melbourne to Barcelona in under a day

We leave Melbourne under cold wet and windy conditions heading for Singapore on the first leg of our adventure. 22hrs later we arrived in cold wet and windy Barcelona, but back to the trip later ,on leaving the Singapore travel lounge we are soon escorted aboard some sort of flying machine with our names written all over the business class section. With our minds numbed by cheap alcohol we flop into those very comfortable leather lounges, the passing parade of flight attendants bearing food and drinks soon win us over . With the gourmet food flowing this will only end in tears if we continue to pig out , 8hrs later we hit the Singapore flight lounge to taste some of Asia s best food and hospitality,more joy to this happy group. As we file back aboard we begin to ready ourselves for Singapores second longest flight of some 6400 miles to Barcelona. 14 hrs later we arrive in a wet and soggy Barcelona and the temperature is a cool 8 Celsius. We fire straight into a big red bus tour organised by big Tom. We are cold wet and miserable on arrival back at our place of rest so Wadda and Tom decide to check out the surrounding area for food and drink ,this mission takes a fair while because we had to assimilate ourselves with the locals . With the women on the verge of collapse we call an early night so we can fight another day,and with the sun going down and the cloud clearing we will be ready for some Barcelona sunshine tomorrow, so now it's lights out from this crew until tomorrow............WADDA
