xxx: this post title sounds so dirty.

DAY IV (12/28): Sydney (SYD) to Cairns (CNS) One quirk of mine is that I usually scan safety manuals and in-flight reading materials as soon as I sit down at a plane. It was my first time flying with Qantas, so the safety guide below caught my eye:


One of these things is not like the other….

FURBIES. What! Do any other airlines have Furbies specifically drawn on their safety diagrams?1 If so, please enlighten!

I had an early morning flight from Sydney to Cairns that day. Got there around noon and headed off to Kuranda, which a town surrounded by rainforest. I ended up eating lots of passionfruit, and I later spent the evening at the Marina. Hope you liked the pictures!2


1: Granted, I’m pretty sure the number of airlines that I’ve been on is not that impressive, considering that I tend to stick with one airline. But still, I can’t get over Furbies in the safety manual. Or Furbies in general. How many of you had a Furby at some point in your life? FESS UP.
2: Hmm, since I’m going to be switching layouts soon, I think that from now on, I’m going to post small thumbnails of my images. However, all the photos you see will eventually link to their respective flickr photos. :)

EDIT: My Internet is unbearably slow right now, hence why I’ve had to edit this post many many times. It even cut off my content! Cue headdesking.

  1. I have not seen Furbies drawn on safety manual in the airlines that I have taken before. But I believe that was drawn in to tell passengers that they are not supposed to bring pets? Just something that pops into my mind as I read this entry.
