The Journey

 
The flight from Adelaide to Dubai was excellent with the flight leaving 10 minutes early (previously not experience with any airline) and Andy and I lucky enough to have a spare seat between us so slept well.
On leaving Dubai we were delayed for 1.5 hours firstly to remove luggage of some no shows and then to remove luggage for a family with a sick member who had to leave the plane. This involved the ownership of every piece of hand luggage in the overhead lockers checked.
We arrived in Zurich in time to catch the last train to Chamonix but it wasn’t our day with the travel gods. Train to Lausanne was 11 minutes late and our connection time was 10 minutes so our connection to Chamonix had left. Managed to make it as far as Martingy but had to overnight there.
Having been to Switzerland so many times now we both feel like this is normal. It is the first time this has happened to us and is quite an unusual feeling.
