Bangkok again with Singapore and Batam.

Saturday morning and the start of a very quiet day. breakfast.




The Chinese were there again and once more ordered one of everything on the menu. It was interesting watching the fellow eat his runny poached egg with chopsticks.
Mrsdrron had scrambled eggs.


And because I could I had Pad thai.


Had a nice long nanny nap after breakfast, So the next big thing in the day was the evening nibbles. Again all the people from the night before were there.


I didn't have the soup but did have all the other dishes.
Duck Breast.


Paneer.


And the snapper with red curry.


Plus a couple of plates from the buffet. My first.


Sunday and time to leave. We ordered our transfer with Exclusive transfers for 8.30 am so went to breakfast at 0700.




A bit of a heart stopping moment as our safe wouldn't open so we called for help. I decided to have one more try and naturally it opened just as the maintenance woman walked in the door. It had been slow on a couple of other occasions so probably needed a new battery.

We went downstairs to check out and at 8.10 just as I finished that our car arrived. He went a back way and entered the freeway just before the congestion broke up so arrived at the airport at 8.40. We had checked in online but I wasn't confident with the Thai security check as my phone likes to tun everything sideways. So stopped at checkin to see if we could get a physical BP but were told it couldn't be done until 9.30. So went to the premium security line.
Just as I feared my phone played up so after 2 failed attempts I gave it to the agent and of course she was successful. At security I had to wait for a secondary exam as we had a can of Eucalyptus oil which looks large but is 60 grams and 100ml so not over the limit.
Immigration was quick so after mrsdrron went through the Thai gift shops we were in the SQ lounge.

Now our flight was at 12.15 so I thought we would only have a choice of breakfast items but at 10.30 thhey put out lunch items so I had a small plate of Som tum, massaman chicken and pork with cashews.


We left the lounge early as the Gate was quite a distance from the lounge nd I no longer can walk fast.
So the flights home to come.

SQ 707 left BKK one minute early at 12.14. We arrived into SIN 10 minutes early at 3.30pm. The crew were not as good as usual but not bad. This was a lunch time flight so here are the wines and menu.










Mrsdrron had the chicken breast and the Austrian white which she enjoyed. The chicken though she thought was the worst meal she has had on SQ.


I had the Panang moo which was enjoyable with some extra sambal. I had the French red which was reasonable.


Not a long flight- just on 2 hours. I caught up with emails whilst listening to the best of Queen. When that finished there was a button for similiar so I pressed that and found there were 3 other Queen albums which I thought I wold listen to on the flight to BNE. Not long left when the Queen album finished so I listened to a bit of AC/DC. Nothing out of the ordinary in flight though the landing was a bit bumpy.

Normally our flights from BKK come into Terminal 2 so I was happy that today it was Terminal 3. My mood changed when I realised that we were at the furthest gate from the Immigration hall. Fortunately my legs behaved and I walked the distance without a stop. Was then able to walk the slightly longer walk back to the CP. Great walking straight from Immigration to the Green customs panel and exit.

checked in by the lounge Manager who said that the place was virtually full all week so we were given floor 5. Not a problem as the room was
exactly the same as the higher floors. I was given 2 lots of points as the Welcome amenity.

%.30 and back to the lounge. Neither of us was very hungry but I did enjoy my laksa.


Had a couple of slices of pizza, a G&T and a couple of glasses of Cabernet. Slept like a log. Had booked a 6am wake up call in case we slept in. The wake up call came just on a minute after I woke.
