A Balinese Escape... Pt 8

Day 8, Final Day of the Trip - 28/05/10

Sick as a dog.
Our last day in Bali is upon us.
The family head to Kuta for some last minute shopping and I snooze on the sofa in the main room of the house, trying to be more social.
We swim and relax and soak in the last of the Bali rays.
We pack.
Our beautiful villa staff wave and hug us goodbye as we head to the airport.
Abigail had NO sleep all day and was a complete ratbag by the time it came to check in. Our flight was delayed by an hour. Great. Luckily we head to the lounge and have some quiet time before boarding the flight at 12am.
Abigail was beyond exhausted. She passed out as the plane took off. J nursed her on his lap the entire flight home. 6 hours pass. She woke as we were descending into Sydney, about 30 minutes from landing. Absolute bliss. It could have gone the other way. I don't want to even imagine it. If she didn't fall asleep....
Our holiday is over.
Well and truly over.
It took us an EPIC 3 hours to clear Customs and Immigration. A true crime indeed. 3 hours. I could have murdered someone by the time we finally left the airport.
Once home and unpacked, I got sicker and sicker over the weekend and was so ill, I couldn't leave the house to get to a Dr. My sweet husband went for me, and collected my medication. Turns out I had contracted a parasitic infection in Bali. Not just the usual gastro bug. I couldn't eat a meal for a good 3 days, I was so ill.
So there you go. Holiday over. Already planning the next one.

Yes, you are probably wondering why these photos all look the same. I spent most of the day in the bathroom. Abi and I had a little party in the huge bathroom, dancing around, posing. She also made friends with a little frog in the outdoor shower / bath.
