Bye Sydney...

We had to get up early this morning as we will be flying off in the afternoon! Can't believe that our holiday is over in a flash! Mommy was doing lots of last minute packing and we finally made it out of the house by 10am!

Lil' Angel saying goodbye to Great Grandaunt...
We headed to Kingsford for lunch at another of Mommy's favourite restaurant. The food took quite awhile to be served so we had to pretty much gobble down our food when the food came. Then we rushed off to the car rental company to drop off the car. We made a wrong turn which caused us to make a BIG detour back to the rental company! Thereafter, we took a cab to the airport and we made it to the airport in good time! Thanks to internet check-in, we didn't have to queue to check in our luggage! The queue for the normal check-in was looooong!
Lil Angel enjoying her ride on the trolley...

She was happy to see the Wiggles...she likes them!

Yet another Wiggles poster...
Lil' Angel doing her Piggy Face expression again!

That's our plane in the background! We will be taking the A380!
Playing with the water cooler...

Walking around the terminal while waiting to board the plane...
Singing songs to pass time...

Swinging and running around...
And it's finally time to board the plane! There are two different aerobridges to board the plane...one is leading to the lower deck and the other leading to the upper deck...we are on the upper deck!
Lil' Angel's boarding pass...

A380 planes are sooo much nicer compared to the normal Boeing 777 planes. It's so much newer (but of cos since it's indeed newer), more leg room, the TV screen is much bigger, seats more comfy, and there are more compartments at the seat in front of you. See...even my penguin has a "seat"!
There...the overview of the aeroplane...
The Bigger TV Screen...
Lil' Angel was pressing and fiddling with everything she could lay her fingers on...

I really appreciated the cup holder!

Mommy was so smart to choose the seats in such a way that the THREE of us had FOUR seats (the whole row) to ourselves...heh heh!
Lil' Angel examining the activity pack...

The service back to Singapore was better than the service rendered when we flew to Sydney. The air stewardess upon seeing Lil' Angel immediately gave her the activity pack to keep her entertained. And she even made it a point to remember Lil' Angel's name so that she could address Lil' Angel by her name! Great service!
Lil' Angel kept saying that she likes to take aeroplane...well, it's not hard to guess why! She's really one happy fella in the aeroplane...and she has no problems with the changing air pressure!
She had the Children's Meal...and she ate quite a fair bit of the pasta. After she was done with dinner, she took a snooze (for only an hour) and I took the opportunity to watch "The Proposal". I love the show!
Sleeping Snugly...

Lil' Angel had a good sleep since she had two seats to sleep on and the arm rest between the two seats could be raised up fully!
When she woke up, I was still half way through the movie but thanks to the Barney show, I could complete the movie in peace. From then, we were glued to the screen! I watched "Aaron Kwok in Concert" next and Lil' Angel caught the "Powerpuff Girls" and "The Simpsons"!!
Pancakes & Strawberries for supper! She loved the pancakes!
We finally arrived at 945pm and Lil' Angel was so happy to see DADA!! She was glad to be home as she missed Daddy & the Gramps very much! She was asking for them everyday!
Overall, it was a good trip! Lil' Angel learnt so much during this trip. She has reached the age where she can remember the places that she has visited, what she has seen, how two countries are so far apart from each other that we need to take the plane etc. She knows the Sydney Opera House, Harbour Bridge, the OZ Animals! Show her the logo of Singapore Airlines and she will say "Singapore Airlines"!
Lil' Angel's shopping loot for this trip are casual tops and bottoms (nothing expensive!), snacks, very nice jigsaw puzzles and a guitar! Mommy is so proud that she was so controlled! :)
