Neither here nor there...
OK, so it wasn't the best start to our little adventure...Shanks was working outside until 3am and after coming inside to pack, he only managed to snatch bare minutes of sleep before we left home at 6:30am to go to the airport. I didn't get to bed at all...partly due to over-excitement, part just being so tired that all my attempts at packing were occurring at the pace of a three-toed sloth!
Never mind, we all managed to make it to the airport bright and early (Ted, you would have been proud of us!), and already having checked in online 2 days previously, we were quick to get through all the checkpoints.
Astrid had a VERY pleasant suprise for all of us on the other side of customs...one of her good friends was working at the Singapore Airlines lounge, and managed to get us all in for a free buffet breakfast before boarding! Looking and feeling quite out of place in amongst all the suits and laptops, that didn't stop any of us from having a good feed!
The flight to Singapore was uneventful, we are currently in Changi airport...Astrid is looking for a digital camera, Christian has parked himself at a bookshop, and well, you can tell where we are!
Next post...Chennai...we hope!

Ass put me onto your blog, and its given me fun reading while I'm pretending to work :)
Look forward to logging in every now and again to see what the four of you have been up to..
Love karin
fill me in on what kind of camera you picked up Ms.Stark.
i have postponed my journey to Armadale until the morning. Nadine invited me over for dinner tonight. I did have to cancel a prior engagement with David Attenborough...I thought we've got the next 6weeks to get re-acquainted.
Looking forward to bonding with the birds...and as previously discussed- thieving their eggs to give to other people with the express purpose of earning praise with the desired effect of temporarily elevating self-esteem (I've got it all worked out...it's the new 'how to win friends and influence people' using the poultry method.
Just thought I'd let you know that there are 7 additions to the back-yard family. They are very cute chicks. I'm guessing there'll be a few more before too long. A chicken and a duck are taking it in turns on one set of eggs...the duck didn't take a shine to me, but I'm sure given enough time we'll get along really well. I'm all settled in...no problems. There was an initial fright when I looked in the freezer and thought that I may not be able to find space for ice cream...but I made space, and the disaster was averted.
