Wednesday, 24 February

Leave W. Palm Beach at 10:55 am, Wed., 24 February, arriving in Los Angeles (via Baltimore) at 5:35 pm.
Leave Los Angeles 10:30 pm, arriving in Sydney at 8:30 am on Friday, 26 February.

Fortunately, the bad weather along the East Coast did not delay any of my flights.  As a matter of fact, the flight from Baltimore to L.A. arrived an hour early!  Which meant I had a SIX-hour layover before my flight to Oz.  Ergo, I had time for three glasses of wine at Vino Volo at LAX!  That probably explains why I was able to sleep a little on the long flight.  I have never been able to sleep more than a hour or two no matter how long the flight, so I'm thinking I may have found the solution to my problem!!
