Final days of the holiday day 30 we had the morning free in Melbourne so visited the art gallery and immigration museum, very interesting place. After grabbing lunch and a coffee it was time to leave for the airport to start the long journey home. Flight 1 Melbourne to Singapore about 7 hours, so I watched Elvis and Maverick again. After a three hour layover. Flight 2 began Singapore to London - 13 hours. Managed to get some sleep but not much. We arrived at Heathrow just after 7 am, and immediately noticed the temperature drop. And just like that the adventure was over 😪. Its been an amazing month with lots of memories created. I would like to thank Lyn for the opportunity to join her on this trip. So Monday will be back to work and saving for the next holiday.
So the day started with rain again which got worse as we ate our breakfast. We had a couple of things planned for today and given there was suppose to be an improvement on the weather as the day went on we decide to delay the morning activity until lunchtime. So just chilled in the morning and read. At lunchtime we set off to the first adventure. A trip to the Redwood Treewalk. Yes thats right we walked amongst the trees, yes I still have a fear of heights but this wasn't too bad, the higher walkways were slightly more scary. After that we then drove 20 minutes to Hells gate, thermal mud pools and sulphur pools. It was amazing, once you got use to the smell and our skin felt amazing afterwards. Once we got back we went out for dinner and then back to the hotel for a moijto. Tomorrow we have a massive adventure planned, so make sure you check in....
