Flying Home

We arrived early to Changi Airport in Singapore for our flight home. Our Singapore - Brisbane flight was full so after a long wait we were finally put on a flight to Sydney and then a fight to Brisbane. We gladly accepted when we were upgraded to Business Class.

Well, I was sad that the flight was only 7 hours. I didn't get enough time to eat the great food and drinks, get a good night's sleep in their pyjamas, a great breakfast, watch a couple of movies etc etc. If only we had had a few extra hours to do it all. As it turned out we only slept for about 3 hours and arrived in Sydney at 5am. There we just happened to run into Mo (Ron's sister) and Tony on the way home from UK going through customs. They had to declare their golf clubs for inspection. I showed off my walking boots assuring the customs officer that I had cleaned them with a toothbrush. He seemed impressed and I was through.

After having to wait in Brisbane for an hour for our bags to catch up with us as they missed our flight in the International to Domestic transition we headed for the train to the Gold Coast. This was a bit of a let down after having travelled Business but we coped.
