C'est fini
Sunday morning, 6th. Left the apartment with our packed bags and headed for the airport in a taxi (€35). We checked in and made our way through customs and immigration to look for something to eat. We could only find Macca's - at least they make an almost decent coffee. Got called to line up for the plane at 9:30 and finally boarded at 10:20.
Immediately after take off we got served breakfast (our second) and settled in for a long flight. We landed in Singapore at 5:30 am local time, but not before we were served another breakfast (that's three). Unfortunately, our next leg didn't take off for another seventeen!!! hours.
We tried to stay awake with coffee, more food, walking around the terminal, even a free bus tour of the city. We survived until 4:00 pm when we were able to get into the room we had booked in the terminal hotel and crashed until 10:00 pm giving us time to get refreshed and a quick bite before our final flight that left at 00:45 am.
Pretty soon after take off, we got served another meal!
Landed in Brisbane at about 10:30 where Myka picked us up. Spent the night in Brisbane and drove home on Wednesday morning.
Beautiful Kingscliff - ahhh!
