Singapore to Sydney

I had two hours at Singapore before transferring into a Boeing 777 for the final leg of my journey. With the recent disappearance of the Malaysian 777 (MH370), I was sure that I would be flying in one of the best inspected aircraft flying.

I did a little quick shopping, grabbed a coffee, and had little time to do anything else. I would say that a two hour break is not a good idea, because you don't have a lot of time to catch your breath.

This time I was in a two seat block at the rear of the aircraft. My companion was Malaysian born Sydney resident accountant, Jessica, who was returning after a 12 month trip to various countries, most recently India. She was a pleasant companion, easy to talk to, and thoughtful about my comfort. We looked after each other during our journey and parted with a hug.

This is Singapore, not all that different from Heathrow 

when you look at it.

I enjoy watching the islands below

Australia at last!

Almost sunset

I like the speedy exit system for Australians. I was through very quickly, grabbed my bag from the carousel, and was out in no time. Naomi was waiting for me, and I was glad in a few minutes to be home after 16 days away,
