Australia South East Coast

Our plan was to get to Melbourne, but China Eastern lost one of our bags and we lost two days of our trip. If we’d been able to give them an address, the bag would have been delivered, but we were travelling in a campervan with no fixed route. Lesson learned: always be prepared to lose one of the bags, and pack so you can manage with just one if you have to.

China Eastern’s service wasn’t very helpful at Sydney Airport, and I don’t believe the bag tracking was working, but the planes and the staff on board were great.

The aim of this trip was to visit Uluru
