Yeah! We are off to Cairns again next February......yes I know its the wet season but hey its a holiday and when it only costs you $68.00 (including insurance) for return airfares who's complaining. As you can see we encountered the wet season this year. Fares were $4 each way if you only had carry on bags or $14 each way if you opted to have baggage. Thank you Jetstar.
Helen & John went home this morning - glad I left for Coolangatta early, the Tugun by-pass is almost finished and currently with the testing of lights and the finishing touches being done traffic was moving at a slow pace. If you book to fly with Tiger Airlines do make sure you get there well and truly before the cut off time - I witnessed two lots of late arrivals turned away this morning, possibly they were late due to the traffic snarls. 'Tis very interesting people watching at an airport.
Received my autographed copy of Catch The Wind by Damien Leith in the mail yesterday - gave it a good work out today.
Have a few emails to catch up on again .........seeing Helen & I spent 2 hours last night trying to get through to the Jetstar site - Helen missed out though I think it unfair as she was in the process of completing her booking at 9.58 and finally it went through at 10.02 but came up with a message saying the sale had closed and her tickets couldn't be processed!
Anyone looking at flying with only carry on baggage or on an international flight where you are only allowed 10ml bottles - I have found some great products in small sizes and also the refillable bottles and jars. Just ask me and I'll pass on the information.
Yesterday we met up Peter and Carol for lunch at Robina.......which reminds me I meant to ring them to see if they missed the traffic jam after an horrific accident on the M1. Then today we went to Labrador AFL club for lunch with my friend Robyn .....3 course meal for $7.95 - great value, soup was vegetable, I had Shepherds Pie while Bill & Robyn had fish and chips followed by fruit salad & cream.
Peter, Helen & I all bought tickets in last nights Oz Lotto - sorry to say ours were not the winning Gold Coast tickets.
Oooh I just noticed Jetstar have some more bargains......
