Yesterday was a very nice and relaxing day; just how I planned it.
I took my time getting started and then the first order of business was the continental breakfast that was included with my room. I went to the dining room and it felt special because I knew it was my last morning in Australia and it was nice to just throw on some clothes and not have to worry about brushing my teeth or even putting sandals on. I went in bare feet, a skirt and camisole.
The second order of business was to find a phone booth to confirm my pick-up to go to the airport. Then I threw some laundry in and started walking towards the Esplanade looking for some kangaroo for lunch - I wanted to eat kangaroo on my last day. I wish we had kangaroo in Canada because it is so lean and tasty - better than any beef I've tasted. Oh, oh! I can't go anywhere until I put my wet clothes in the drier. I walked back to the hotel and decided to put my wet clothes in my room and dry them later. I don't want to be tied down with house duty.
I had a delish kangaroo dish at a restaurant called the Raw Prawn and sat on the patio on the Esplanade looking out at the ocean - well, actually it was the mud flats, not very attractive, but I had my eye out for crocs because these waters are infested with them. I didn't see any. It would have been awesome seeing one crash up through the water to eat a bird, but no go.
I went to the Qantas office to find out more details about my flights. Apparently, I didn't need to confirm if the flights were on time because they must always be on time. I guess they never have to worry about de-icing wings.
OK, I'm ready now. All the dirty work has been taken care of. All I have to do now is shop.
