BIG BAGS

So- who knew that international overweight baggage was $35 a kg? Yes, yes… I’m sure you all did… How did we miss that? Out went the 8kg stack of papers- big ups to Dave and Katie who saved our 56kg-$350-bacon. Suddenly I understand why people insist on travelling via the US (2 bags of up to 32kg each as opposed to 20kg pp through Asia). Suddenly a smaller bag seems like a better idea. Suddenly it seems like you need a LOT of gear to travel to the other side of the world and still do your uni work. Silly me.

Anyway, we made it safely to Singapore without having to part with cash (cheers AirNZ for those gratis 4.4 kgs- oh and THANKS again to D+K).
