Hey all, well I am back on the Emerald isle so just thought I'd pop in and say hello.
First off, Gypsy, well done girl on becoming a Super Mod, you definitely deserve it !!
Mel, are you settled back in yet?
Barb, how are you feeling now?
How is everyone else?
We arrived home from Australia yesterday after over 30 hours of travelling. We arrived back in Ireland around 12pm and eventually after visiting all my family we got back home around 4.30pm. It was a battle to stay awake until our new bed time, but managed it. Went to bed around 9pm and I woke up about 6am. So I feel fresh as a daisy !!! Back to work tomorrow, so making the most of today. I've to sort out all of the pressies we brought home too.
It was very hard leaving my brother, sister in law and niece at the airport. There were a lot of tears
and then we had to walk through passport control. I'm sure they are used to seeing that alot, they are also one of the nicest passport control people we have ever met !!
What we learned on this flight is NEVER to fly through Paris Charles De Gaul Airport ever again. It was the worst experience of the whole trip. Rude people, terrible airport with no signs of how to transfer to the next flight etc. So, never again. Previously we have flown via Amsterdam (a dream) and London (a nightmare because it's Heathrow, but nice people) and Frankfurt (very efficient, well they are Germans !!) We always fly with Singapore Airlines via Singapore and I cannot speak highly enough about this airline nor Changi airport. The airport in Singapore has to be the best I have ever flown through and I've flown through a lot !!!
