Day 47

Back to Sydney today. The 1st day passed in a bit of a blur because of everything that happened in the early hours of the morning! But afterwards, just general packing/laundry stuff. I am so happy I pre-paid for the Jetstar lounge at the Gold Coast airport! The sushi and tomato soup went down really well, especially because I was still feeling so bad from my cold. They had a really good spread, little meat pies to nibble, cakes, coffee maker, pancake maker with maple sauce (yum!!), juices, soft drinks, fruit, beer and wine. Sat myself down with some magazines and the hour passed too quickly. Got home before midnight. Sleep...

Day 39

Went with Eric to Auntie's place so that he could get a lift to the airport. Hung around Auntie's for most of the day but finally got to go to the beach in the evening with Zain! Water was so good! Fish curry for dinner and home.. :)

Day 37

Crazy day today. Cleaning and throwing out stuff as I'm moving out soon, then another crazy trip to the airport. As usual, the local buses to the airport didn't come as promised by the sydney transport authority website, so after taking the bus as far as I could go, grabbed a taxi for the rest of the way. Wasn't too bad, at least I live close to the airport. Got a bit scared though, haha.

I ended up at the airport earlier than Lin and a short flight later, hello Coolangatta! Weather is cool and nice at night and Sid picked us up and brought us for late supper at his mum's restaurant, Bali Hut.

The food she cooked was great! The restaurant was already closed so she made us some real Malaysian food (with a bit of Indonesian influence). Nasi goreng and ikan assam (something, it was red, slightly sweet and sour and very good). Too happy.

R.I.P Joe, whose room we're staying in during this trip. If your spirit is still hovering in your room, I hope that you turned around like a true gentleman while I was taking off my shirt. Seriously, you looked like a cool guy. Life is fleeting indeed, best to live every day!
