Singapore to Sydney
Wednesday 17 October
|
9:30 AM. Passed customs again and waited in the lounge room. Two passengers didn't showed up during the final boarding call. For safety reasons their luggage had to be removed, which meant a delay of 15 minutes. 11.30 AM. Finally we left Singapore, heading towards Sydney. Slept, played some videogames, ate, watched movies during the flight to Sydney.
8:00 PM. Touchdown at Kingsford Smith Airport. Passed customs by declaring food, which was much quicker than passing the normal customs. I was one of the first who entered the arrival hall. I asked about shuttle busses to the city at the information desk and went off to Sydney Central YHA. I'm going to stay there for a few days before my Contiki trip starts along the East coast.
9:15 PM. Arrived at the hostel, checked-in and paid by credit card. Off to my room on level 5.
Entered the room and met Simon from New Zealand and Kazuyuki from Japan. Unpacked my stuff and
introduced myself, talked a little bit about where we came from, etc. Later on I took a shower and
was tired from the long-distance flight. Off to bed. Fortunately I arrived in the evening so the
chance of getting a jetlag was minimal. This is great, so I can do more things tomorrow. Needed
to get some sleep... Zzzz...
