The flight from LA is 14.5 hours. Not having the thousands of dollars necessary to upgrade to business or first
class, we spent the time in economy (Qantas does feed it's customers well and provides a care package of socks,
eye mask and tooth brush.)
We spent the first couple of nights in Sydney to recover from jet lag. We knew it was winter, but winter is usually
low to mid 70's, dipping into the 50's at night. We arrived at 7am to grey skies, heavy wind, and temps in the low 50's.
It did not warm up much during the day. Surprise #1: Australia was experiencing it's 2nd coldest
winter in 50 years.
