International Travelers!

Woah! So much traveling! Our long haul flight to Hong Kong (15 hours!) was surprisingly pleasant! Slept for about 8 hours, read, crocheted, watched movies and we were there! We had an easy transfer and layover, fairly short flight to Singapore, cleared customs, caught the AirTrain and before we knew it we we're checked into our hotel that was attached to the airport - barely feeling tired or shaggy at all! We've come to the conclusion that after so many flights back and forth to Aus our bodies must just be used to it, nice one!
The hotel in Singapore was SO COOL! Beautifully decorated, super modern, and distinctively different to any hotel we'd ever been in. We found our room and threw open the curtains to a view of the most incredible pool ever! 
We quickly got changed and ran downstairs to have a better look! Ahh it was just so exciting to be in a new country, even if we were still sort of in the airport haha. The pool was a bit chilly so we went back to the room and both had baths and lazed around in our fluffy bathrobes until Dad, Claire, Ed, and Will's flight got in!
Before long there was a knock on the door! One high pitched little voice claimed to be "room service" in a thick Aussie accent and another was "the pizza guy" - we opened the door and we're overwhelmed with wonderful hugs and kisses from our cute little siblings! Ahh it was so great to be reunited with them and Dad and Claire!! We all headed downstairs to get some cocktails and dinnery food and have a good catch up.
Our flight to Thailand left at 8:40 this morning and so far so good! We're on the plane now (although we can't post the blog until we land) and can't wait to finally reach Koh Samui!!
