Despite
the early morning wake up call, we were lucky enough to be greeted with another
wonderful, sunny day!
Our itinerary looked a little something like this:

Day 1 in Beijing
After
flying 11 hours from Sydney to Beijing, let me just take this moment to let you
all know that our experience with Air China was pretty alright! Considering we
were flying economy and through the night (and from my previous traveling
experiences) I was expecting worse in the form of uncomfortable seats, old or
malfunctioning entertainment equipment and other unfortunate mishaps (as my
luck has always been with these types of things), but I was pleasantly
surprised at the smoothness of it all. Granted, I slept most of the way, so
that may have been a contributor, but anyway, moving on!

Finally!
Good
afternoon, beautiful people!
It is 12:43PM London time and I’m happy to say that since our departure on March 5th, we have successfully survived our stopover in Beijing (which I’ll fill you all in on in another post), landed in London, spent 10 days scrambling (which I will fill you in on also) and have finally “settled”. YAY!
It’s been one crazy, hectic month so far but I don’t think I would’ve handled it just as easily if I were on my own. Team Stella has been working overtime getting our bank accounts sorted, getting our bearings and familiarising ourselves with the area, oh! And I don’t know, maybe sussing out a place to live as well? Ha! But it’s all worked out wonderfully so far and we’ve ended up with some bomb roommates as a bonus too!
It’s been exactly 18 days since we’ve flown the coop, and I’d like to say that I haven’t been lazy in getting this blog up and running, but then I’d be lying. But, with no further ado, I present to you, Once More with Feeling! I’ve spent a good couple of days and nights in my head with this blog and throwing around a whole bunch of names, and after discovering that my top two choices were already taken or didn’t quite feel right, I guess we’ve (I’ve) finally decided that “once more with feeling!” felt like it was ever so appropriate.
So, come one, come all! Join Steve and me on our crazy “derpy” adventures as we’d actually really love to be sharing them with you all.
