I am back

My plane touched down at 2.30am on Monday morning. The flight was very boring. I couldn’t sleep thanks to a bunch of oz guys who were chatting and joking (as well as singing) loud (non stop) the whoooole night. I was the last one to pick up my luggage — too busy at the Duty Free shop browsing through the liqueurs and wines. I wanted to get a bottle of Amarula but they didn’t have! In the end I bought a bottle of Baileys (coffee flavour) and a sherry wine.

Well I had a good time in Western Australia (Perth / Joondalup). I already miss their cool spring weather, the beautiful houses and yards, the non-crowded-places and empty lands and the beautiful parks and lakes. But I am glad to be back in Singapore — Familiar territory. Back into my man’s arms. My cat. My bed. My TV. My house. I’ve missed the convenience of going to the nearby supermarket anytime hehe.

On the last day of school, we went clubbing. Then on my last 2 days in Perth, my cousins brought me to Hillarys Boat Harbour, Wanneroo Park and Swan Valley, where we tasted cheese & wine, chocolate and nougat. Bought a bottle of sweet wine (yeah I like wine that has some sweetness in it) and Mondo nougat. I also wanted to buy some strawberries and bring back to SG but I was worried that I’d exceed my 20kg luggage allowance — In the end my luggage was exactly 20kg and my hand back exactly 7kg — just nice! I didn’t shop much. I think I mostly shopped for food — 2.5kg of nougat, 1kg of salami (it was cheap! only $10 for 1 kg), 1.5kg of mixed chocolates, 1 bottle of wine and some souvenirs from Perth.
