Let the nightmares begin!

So in exactly 4 days and 10 minutes we should be taking off on our adventure to Australia! See, we're down to counting minutes already...

But with much to do and much to remember, the bad dreams have kicked in. You know the type - they lose the luggage, or steal the contents, or you miss the flight, or can't get there in time to book in, or the airport is huge and complicated and all the "in" doors are really "out" doors so you can't enter, or you keep beeping when you go through security...

Yup, the horror show began in the early hours of this morning, resulting in a rather pained tired expression on this face today. But one good thing came out of it - I remembered something I need to check at the airport before we depart, and added it to my list when I finally got up.

Strange how sometimes your mind sifts through things in the dreams, and comes up with answers for you. It's happened often that I've gone to bed in confusion and woken up enlightened. So perhaps these nightmares serve a purpose, directing me toward an easier journey after having "lived" the bad bits that are unlikely to happen.
