Day 19 Heading Home

Amanda and Rob were a no show to breakfast so Noel rang them when we got back to the room as Rob had a massage booked at 10am and Amanda wanted to go to Jungceylon with me. Amanda just made the 10am shuttle and we headed to the Japanese Facial place and had a gold facial.




Noel went shopping while we were doing this and then he headed back to the hotel. After our facial it was eyelash extension time followed by a pedicure, foot scrub and manicure. By this time it was 3.00pm we were all beautified for home so we shared a Taxi with some other ladies from our hotel. Just enough time for a quick swim and chance to say goodbye to the other guests we had gotten to know and give away the pool noodles and nurf water guns.

 
We packed the bags and rested up for a while before our pickup at 5.00pm. The suitcases all came in at about 21kgs so no excess baggage charges which was a relief. A quick shop around the duty free before boarding. Amanda and Rob didn't pre-order in Adelaide and as we were transiting in Singapore they wouldn't sell alcohol due to the liquid limit, never had that before for duty free. We got to Singapore with little time for shopping we had to change terminals and they were already doing last boarding call. They still couldn't get alcohol as they won't sell it to you 15 minutes before takeoff. Lucky they have the little duty free shop in Adelaide.

We landed on time but the smart gates weren't working so we had to do the big line up at immigration which is very frustrating after no sleep. Only Adelaide can be harder to enter than anywhere else in the world even as a resident. Amanda and Rob got their duty free at last. Lucky customs was fast and efficient for a change and we were out of there within 10 minutes and at last our way home to the dogs and some sleep. Another great adventure in Thailand, we managed to come home with tans/sunburn.

It was another great holiday so until next it's me signing off from the blog with a big tick.
