I don't travel well by coach either, although I have found that a seat where I can see clarly through the front window is a help.

Absolutly fine. Prior to leaving for the airport I took Systane every hour and put my lenses in two hours before leaving too. Then every hour took the lenses out for a Systane top up.
Comparing this to a daily work routine leads me to conclude the following;
1) My eyes are drying out at night and take time to hydrate properly.
2) The lens reshapes the cornea to a small extent.
This is why I think that I managed to then go 12 hours full lens wear in airconditioned air ports and a plane and a car. Usually aircon is the main problem, but I think hydrating the ye better helped and the reshaping the lens does, eventually gives it a point to lock onto better.
Weather is really dull, I am loving it as it is so comfortable on the eyes.

I'd hve expected the lens to reshape the cornea. when i first started wearing RGP's I'd have near perfect sight for about half an hour after taking them out. that situation changed, but it is clear that the lens was moulding my cornea into a proper "cornea" shape, at least in the early days.

Only about 10% are unrestricted now. It is recomended 120 kph but unless there are no regular speed repeater signs it is as fast as you like.
Need to keep your witts about you, not only because of the speed. If you enter a speed restricted area and are doing over the limit they are extremely tough and rightly so.
