Last night we chatted to Kolt for a while, ended up going to bed late and for some crazy reason, agreed to eat breakfast with him at 8am! We were seriously tired, but got up and had a nice Indonesian American breakfast at a restaurant called the Gong. Then we went back to Jacko House where we lived, and packed all our stuff. We'd talked to Jacko yesterday about a taxi, we'd said 12 but he thought it was way too early and that we'd just be bored sitting at the airport.
So instead of waiting we went to an Italian pizzeria with Kolt and had amazing pizzas yum! Then had another look at Padang beach before returning to pay and leave. Jacko was very nice and was sorry I had to give him extra money for the bike, Indonesians are very honest, good people.
Short taxi ride to the airport and then we had to find a new departure card. Why? You might ask. Well, the past week we each sent a parcel home with papers and gifts and souvenirs we didn't want to carry around (I think you can see where this is going). My dear friend Emelie was looking through her papers and passport stuff. Inside her passport she found a little card and was like "what's this rubbish?" so she sent it home. Then next day she was like
- "Ok so we just need our passports right, no extra papers or anything?"
- "um, no papers, just the departure card"
- "Haha that's a joke right"
- "Err no, I have mine right here"
- "I think I sen mine back home to Sweden...!"
Anyways, all is well. I think people losing their departure cards happens a lot, cause there was a whole stack of them at immigration.
Now were sitting on the plane waiting to depart. No window seat this time. Emelie is disappointed. But we have a very nice looking man sitting next to us, toothless and everything ;)
Ok, so the flight was pretty good, they had little tv sets in the seats so I watched cool 1980-90's music videos and Emelie watched the Chelsea Newcastle match, so everyone was happy!
