After packing up and checking out, I made my way to the ferry terminal to begin my long journey back home.

I managed to get on the 3pm ferry that headed directly to the airport – which was a plus on so many levels as it meant I didn’t waste near an hour transferring from the main ferry dock to the airport, and also it saved me around HK$400.

Once at the airport I checked in and spent my time in the duty free store tossing up purchasing a Digital SLR or not – either the Nikon D5000 or the Canon 500d.

Attention if anyone out can pass on any additional knowledge or information then please contact me!

With the rest of my time being spent surfing the internet or grabbing a quick bite to eat, I eventually made my way to the gate to board last (like normal).

I made my way to my favourite and always requested centre row left aisle seat I was again – for the second flight back to Australia in the past month – greeted by a stunning girl seated in the same centre row, but one seat away on the opposite aisle.

Her flowing blonde locks and curvaceous body would soon disgust me when she turned out to be a bitch for a random comment she made to me regarding my iPod.

With her now behind me and the plane jetting off I struggled to sleep and consequently was forced to watch four movies; 12 Rounds, Bride Wars, Miss March and The Proposal . . . one action, two romance and one comedy was not my expected mix for movies, but most of the ones on offer I had seen or just plain old sucked!

I landed in Sydney early and spent most of my time trying to sleep at my gate, but it wouldn’t be until I returned back to Geelong and the comfy family couch and trusted heater that I would find some much needed hours snoring away.
