G'Bye Australia, Boo Hoo

Location: Singapore
Weather: Humid, some sun today and hot/warm

Well all good things must come to an end and whilst my round da world ticket was good, it had an expiry date of 5th January. So on this day, I prepared to say Goodbye to Australia and fly off to Singapore. To be honest it was all a bit of a blur. I've always said this, don't plan ahead and you'll be rushed off you feet, but who took any notice? not me. After going out to the pub till 2am two nights in a row on the 3rd & 4th with my friends (a wild occurrance in Darwin) I had to hurry up rather quickly that morning to buy my final Aussie souvenirs and get to airport. Leaving Oz wasn't as tragically tearful as I expected, I guess I've still got a while to go before I go back home and I have to go back sometime to finish the bits I missed on my loop of the country. I expect this is why the hoards of Australian women that the Samaritans expected to be phoning when I left weren't such a problem

oh well, doesn't seem like I've been away a whole year!
