Thursday 11 February
Matilda drove me to the airport at 3. I put my suitcase in, received my boarding pass and had a coffee at Dome. We boarded at 5 and took off on time at 5.50pm on Air New Zealand flight NZ176. I watched the NZ-France November test on the seat-back screen and had a fairly reasonable chicken-pasta dinner along with small glass of NZ sauv blanc, sitting next to what appeared to Gimli the Dwarf. The over-the-counter sleeping pill proved to be largely ineffective and I was able to grab only bits of sleep here and there on a mostly smooth flight punctuated by a few periods of mild turbulence.
