Last Day... fly home tonight.

It's all so strange this travelling thing. No wonder body clocks go awry... I hardly know what day it is myself. But the first day of the New Year, it is. Everyone in this place is wishing everyone else a Happy New Year.

We woke early, and when it became apparent we wouldn't sleep again we pottered up to the Club Lounge to do some blogging. Had orange juice... and just went on from there really.
Having breakfast up here on the 38th floor is special. Fabulous views. And the sunrise!!!
I'm not normally an early morning person, but moving time zones changes things for a bit. The sunrise was SPECTACULAR!! Rosalie - I know why you love them.

Had a short walk out of our hotel - a bit too warm for us. No sign of Penny, but I guess she is celebratng the New Year with her family somewhere else in this city.

Transferred safely to the airport in the evening and on to the plane (eventually). Waiting in the hotel, without our room (although we did have a 2pm check out given to us the transfer was a 6pm pickup) was a bit tedious.

Once on the plane all was well.  Just because we know how interested Andrew is in our nourishment details (notice I did not mention the dreaded "f" word Andrew) I thought I should take a picture of our main course - chicken breasts stuffed with savoury rice - Yum.

Slept well and arrived in Melbourne next morning with Matt waiting to take us home. Lovely.

  1. Your wanderings around the Yorkshire Dales sounded just perfect to me,also to roam the Cotswolds would be my idea of paradise! The Bay Tree hotel would be the "icing on the cake!". Your choice to experience New Year's Eve in each others company would have been ours too,sounds like you had a wonderful view of the celebrations.Again,thank you so much for sharing your travels,have thoroughly enjoyed following them.Safe trip home(you may already be home,not sure,) you must be looking forward to seeing the boys again,Bye for now,love from Wilma.x
