Day Forty Three. Off to the Airport and onto Kuala Lumpur.

I did not sleep well on my last night in Cambodia as I was incredibly sad to leave. Not only was I sad about leaving the country behind but also my daughter who I would miss terribly. We got up early and Sok our Tuk-tuk driver rang to say he was downstairs early. Got ready, showered and closed my suitcase and went downstairs. We both cried and hugged and off I went with Sok to the airport. Spet the trip crying as did not want to go. When we got there Sok gave me a big hug and we said our goodbyes. He had looked after us well and was going to take Heidi to work every morning which I was pleased about.

The flight to Kuala Lumpur was very turbulent. I was not aware at the time but there were heavy winds and rain there. The descent into this weather was scary. I was relieved when we landed.

It is so nice to walk around Kuala Lumpur airport as it is huge and very interesting with lots of shops to see. I went and found my gate so that I would not get lost, then decided to do the jungle walk which happened to be closed due to bad weather. I was disappointed as I had not seen it on the way through. 

Sat and sent some Viber messages to Heidi and rested for a while. Getting hungry decided to eat and wanted something bad like a burger. Went to Burger King as had eaten fabulous food in Cambodia and wanted a change. Could not eat it all but felt better. It gave me some energy. Went to a lounge area with couches and T.V. and I wrote and wiled away my time in the digital world via my phone. As time got closer to departure I went to the gate area. Other people had the same idea and I had a lovely time talking to a lady from Melbourne and then a Buddhist monk from the monastery in Bendigo. Finally boarded for our night flight back to Melbourne .
