But then there was an aeroplane flight.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/evilmoose.me\/wordpress\/wp-content\/images\/20130901-WP_20130901_004-M.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The weather was perfect, so we sat and stared out the plane window, and confirmed our house wasn&#8217;t on fire.  Or if it was, at least the whole building wasn&#8217;t yet ablaze.<\/p>\n<p>We arrived successfully in Melbourne along with all of our luggage, and went to throw it all into our hire car.  This was the last straw for a tired and sick Moosling, who had been looking forward to the prospect of finally getting to the car after all this time on aeroplanes (&#8220;No more aeroplane!  Aeroplane go down now!&#8221;).  But it was the wrong car, and entirely the wrong colour  (&#8220;No blue car!).  So he was distraught and cried for ten minutes, but eventually fell fast asleep in the back seat as we drove to our destination.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/evilmoose.me\/wordpress\/wp-content\/images\/20130905-IMG_1634-M.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>After a couple of days of stunned wandering around, and lots of sleeping, and a couple of Rosh Hashanah dinners, we went to the wedding in Olinda.
