Melbourne, Victoria
The adventure begins! It's currently 12.20am on Saturday 7th November. I have made my way through baggage check in and customs which took about 2 hours. Was excited to see Melbourne International Airport for the first time, but disappointed to find most places were shut at this hour (no different to good old Perth where I am originally from!). So I am now waiting in the departures lounge at Gate 18 for my 1.05am flight! First flight to Singapore then to Koh Samui...
