MEL to LA - A380 Economy

Whilst we enjoyed breakfast in the Qantas Club, our plane was delayed an hour on departure (apparently the computer that automatically lands the plane was have an off day). Fortunately, the flight time was an hour less due to the strong winds across the Pacific, so it all evened out in the end. The plane was full, so no space to stretch out. We both have difficulty sleeping sitting up, so it was time to give the inflight entertainment system a good workout. It's amazing!!! Everything from a forward looking camera, movies, documentaries, heaps of music, and everything on demand. Which means you can pause the movie to go to the toilet - just like at home.
We got through immigration (where we were photographed and fingerprinted) and customs without a hassle.
