Got my extra 10kg of weight allocated to me by Malaysian airlines on Thursday but declined still by Emeritus as I wasn’t flying with them out of NZ. My travel agent has been working very hard this week to get it and it has been much appreciated. We packed my bag by the scales in the middle Auckland airport on Saturday morning hoping we will get the 10kgs from Emirates. So with a bag packed with 30kgs to KL and heading off to check in (either going to dump stuff and repack in KL or pay excess weight costs) we received an answer to prayer and the travel agent was on the phone to say the allowance had come through and I was able to take 30kgs all the way to Entebbe.
A quick good bye to Mum, Dad, Clinton, Amy, Raewyn, and Xiu had turned up at the airport as well to see Mum and Dad. I walked through customs and straight on to the plane. Repacking the bag had meant that we didn’t get much time to sit down and talk very much before I left.
