Today’s article comes to you from Christchurch New Zealand. It’s quite a gruelling trip to get here, taking about 18 hours of total travel time. The worst stretch is the 13 hour flight from Vancouver to Auckland. On this particular flight I was surrounded by crying babies. There was one either side of me, one in front of me, and one behind me. It was like a diamond midfield formation. Most people would curse their rotten luck that they’re stuck next to these babies. But you have to see things from the babies’ perspective. Infants’ ears are much more sensitive to pressure changes so plane trips are quite painful for them.
