Just picked up my first ever pair of reading glasses. Welcome to middle age apparently.

I remember going to my Dr saying there's something wrong with my eyes, the letters on the newspaper a blurry. She said "you need glasses", I said, "no, there's something wrong with my eyes" "Yes, you need glasses!" Penny dropped.

My dearest booked herself a seven week US holiday with one of the KGB girlfriends.
Assumed that she didn’t need a visa for the US, travelling on an Aussie passport (not Russian)!!!  Moreover, this problem was not identified until just over two hours prior to departure. I’d dropped her off at the terminal and was 35km away… Already had a migraine from heat, exertion - stress didn’t help it ease. Literally about 50 minutes before take-off, the expedited application was greenlit (airline check-in counter helped as best they could, but weren’t going to board her in case it got declined at the other end). What a circus. |

You’ve needed ESTA’s for as long as I can recall landing in the USA CB.
The agent or booking office should have advised this in the first place. Easiest visa to get online. Yep it gets approved pretty quick. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yes, I don’t know what she was thinking!
 One of her besties has PR there, maybe she thought that affected things. Can laugh about it a little now. Last night when I was looking down the barrel of seven weeks’ relative calm torpedoed just like that - it wasn’t so funny. |

I thought our 2 governments just signed some agreement 2 weeks ago that didn't need us to get visas or something to make travel easier.
7 weeks of batching it, nice.

I got to try out the just-opened “Airport Link” pieces of road. After hours, they feel slow and empty; the limit is 60 but could easily go ten or twenty up.

They do that with the new tunnels to get people used to the change. They then reassess like they did for the main tunnels |
