Is it REALLY time to get up?

Nov. 18 – We had to be up in the middle of the night to get the flight to New Zealand. Bags had to be out in the hallway for pick up at 3:00 a.m. and we were on the way to the airport by 4:00. Because the airport is so close to the city, the airport is closed down overnight and there are no flights in or out. We actually arrived too early and had to wait for security to open. In any case, we did get a boxed breakfast to take with us from the hotel. For some reason they don't keep the kitchen open all night long just to feed us before we leave.
