The day has arrived

It has arrived!! The day I fly out to London... but first let's rewind the last 48hours.

Friday my last day in sunny sawtell, resulted in many events such as my last plasma donation, getting my hair done and trying to RE pack, I already did it 5times and the first was the best. Never the less got it done, and thought I packed well.

Hit it up at the sawty pub to find myself along with Rosie a massive hangover on our drive to Sydney. Luckyi could sleep. But what's a trip without a hiccups here or there. Car had to get oil filter changed and we were off to a late start. Then my phone froze, now there weird thing for my last 3 overseas trips the day before I am due to leave my phone freezes weirdo it is.

However we arrived to Sydney about 7ish driving into a mad storm but lucky we got the tail end of it. All tired and hungover we had a quite one.....well until we went to sleep. Rossie snored the house down and not much sleep was had.
One of my list I want in a man : No snoring..... apparently I need some good luck with that.

Sunday the 16th the D day, we decidec to head into circular key walk to the ROCKS to smash out some "Pancakes on the rocks" and in search for a new carrying on baggage as mine broke. Then the walking and the winging became and cranky pants for all of set in. However we manage to have a family photo with joyest of smiles.

As we were heading back to the train my friend Maree was on her way, as I texted her and said we will miss each other... here come this girl with blonde hair running out of a carriage down to me. (never seen her run so fast) but got to give her a hug. Until we meet again.

Finally we get to the airport and thinking sweet, I am doing ok, nerves are Under control, luggage should be fine, then 5kg over........ dam it!!! So my 5kgs went to my carry on and I looked like the stupid dizzy girl with too much stuff and had to rearrange and work out what to do. But got there in the end.
Then it was time. I saw a girl crying as she farewelled her pants, then my heart started racing, I been o/s before but this was different, this is a 1 way ticket , working not holidays all the time drinking cocktails... and the tears came rollllllling out out for all 3 of us, mum and Ross had each other I had to  get my shit together to get through immigration and security whom gave me a hard time and then the tears came flooding out again and he let me through with all my stuff.

Then it was flight time.. first Sydney airport get some decent showers, you got nothing on Singapore....
Sate next to nice chap called Steve from Ireland, lives in Sydney and builder. And heading home to visit the family. Flight not bad we did just vanish and made to ABU Dhabi..... how next leg is coming up who will be my new friend or maybe myself and get some shut eye.

Next stop London town!!!
