Airport Melbourne Breakfast

30 March 2019

The 3 worst photos of this trip

Getting to Melbourne airport and enjoying 'The House' Virgin / Etihad lounge

AS IS TRADITION, here are 3 really boring really bad photographs. Photographs of tables without anyone sitting at them, a bland looking out of focus breakfast shot, and a huge vast expanse of concrete.
Today I am going to Seoul in South Korea via Hong Kong in China.
Actually I am not going to South Korea until tomorrow, I have a 5 hour stopover in Hong Kong which will take the time into tomorrow before I leave Hong Kong and arrive in Seoul Incheon at 4am local time, all on no sleep. Fun times ahead.

At least this time I did not bother with the photo of the bus seat and a photo of my ticket?

Anyway, I had a bit of a cold earlier this week, that went away after 2 days, so I am approximately 108.5% sure that will come back with a vengeance after spending at least 15 hours wedged into a series of pressurized metal tubes. Enjoy the z in pressurized, I cant figure out how to change the spell checker dictionary in my code editor program to English English, but I digress....already....
Previous followers (my alternate personalities) will no doubt recall that I enjoy going into great detail about every kind of mucus, including the kind which comes out of me as well as the mucus others enjoy sharing with me. I should change the name of this site to THE MUCUS BLOG. Therefore, to make this more exciting I tried to coordinate getting a cold to coincide with my flight, but it has gone away, disappointing really.

Thats probably enough nonsense for now, I will be back with more filler rants during my 5 or so hours of wandering Hong Kong airport.

The aforementioned Virgin lounge which is actually the Etihad lounge which is actually called 'The House' and they try to hide the fact that Virgin elite status dorks get access because presumably they have to pay Etihad an exorbitant sum of money for anyone that figures out the riddle and pushes their way in demanding 'free' breakfast.

OMG its an omelette. You can order off the menu or go to the buffet. Since there were about 20 guys standing around with nothing to do, I ordered off the menu. They appeared to be annoyed that I did. Also the coffee was ok but the sugar situation was amusing. Instead of granulated powdery plain sugar they had artisan lumps of some kind of non dissolving glass like substance that added a rich earthy aroma of sugar well past its used by date.

'The House' does have a good view of the runways, but most of the aircraft are behind me. I pretended to be an air traffic controller for a while, looking at flightradar24.
