I left Kuantan with a night bus at 1am and it took us 4hrs to KL. As it was 5 in the morning and had to find a taxi to the airport - read as; a perfect opportuninty to "rip off a foreigner" - came to the aiport early in the morning, checked in and waited ... waited ... 7.5 hrs to Sydney - why on earth are we going to sydney? looks like that it's normal to do that :) waited at the airport in sydney and left for Brizzie. It took me 1.5hrs to get through immigration and was really happy that Jimbo is gonna wait for me ... or at least that's what I thought ...
As I came out ... there was no jimbo .... no danielle ... ok great ... thought that probably they're gonna come later. But they have never showed up ... and since everything was perfect - alejandro's number was a WRONG one! Even better .... there were no busses, trains or whatsoever ... so .... I was stuck at Brisbane airport at freaking 1am with 3 bags full of stuff! (GREAT!)
I mean now I worry, since Emma is going to worry :) and alejandro is gonna worry as well - he has all of my stuff!! my keys, my car, my phone - EVERYTHING! I have talked to the security guys and based myself = very strategic - on the sofas on the fourth floor - together with 3 girls from Taiwan and 1 girl from no idea where but we surely look like a community :) it's funny - so close to home, but so far away - and the crazy thing is that u can not do anything about it! And internet it's not free, so I had to pay like 2 AUD for 10 mins to write an angry email 2 jim - I can not believe that he has forgotten me - I mean if something happened - he should tell me before!
so I'll be heading 2 the gold coast tomorrow at 6.30 :) OH THIS IS SOOOO MUCH FUN - have no clean clothes or anything ) GREAT! they have confiscated my toothpaste in Sydney since it was more than 100 ml, haven't take n a shower in 2 days - traveled 6000 miles and I'm still on my WAY, my head hurts from airt conditioning ... had no food since 5pm ... and there are no vending machines and everything is shut ... at THE freaking AIRPORT!
that's how great stories emerge :) grr
now I'm safe and it's sunday :) and I'm laughing when I remember :) lol
