We are relaxing in Colombo. Well, I am. My daughter is freaked after encountering tropical wildlife, in her bed. Or the bed that was going to be hers anyway.
We left yesterday flying from Stansted to Dubai, arriving there this morning. On the way, I watched Toy Story 4. We, by which I mean my wife and I, have watched Toy Story since before the kids were born. As enjoyable as this was, it was not as good as the original and while a good film, not the masterpiece the others were. After this, I watched the end of Yesterday. My wife and I had watched it before, but she asked me to sort some things out while it was on, so I never actually got to watch the end of the film. A lovely feel good film, one I would watch again if on the telly, possibly.
Arriving in Dubai, we relaxed ate food but left it a bit late to get to our flight, in fact, when we got there, the flight had finished boarding! Fortunately, it turned out that it was not our flight, but the down side was that we had a short time to get across to the other side of the airport to make our flight. My daughter and I raced ahead and got there after it started to board having jumped onto trains and into lifts just before depths sliding doors closed. We let them know that my wife and son were on the way and was expecting them to be a while. But my wife had managed to get some of the airport police to drive her and my son in a buggy and they took the airport shuttle bus to get to the flight.
Once we had all calmed down, it was them the next part of the flight and during this, I watched X Men, Dark Phoenix. I had heard bad reviews of the film, but both I, and my daughter who was watching it at the same time as me, both liked it. Much better than films like Wonder Woman!
Anyway, we are now in the Hotel and are to rest. Good night!
