56 long hours

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Sydney, 2001.01.10

We're back in Sydney. What an adventure. Except for a few naps (giving me, maybe in all, three hours sleep) I was awake for 56 hours by the time we touched down in Sydney. All because our plane collided with a de-icing vehicle in Toronto. Delays, bloody delays.
