Woke up with a deep sigh, actually we never slept. Still making list of things we wanted to do, places we want to visit, and those which we want to visit again, and finally convincing ourselves that we would definitely visit again. There's always a next time. Despite all odds, visiting Singapore again lures us out of the bed. Getting ready was short and quick, grabbed a quick bite at the breakfast and we were waving goodbyes to Aston Bali from our cabs on the way to the airport. Going through airport check took a while - only a few immigration counters are manned - and there's a airport fee of IDR150k per person (better to bring cash with you) - and picking up a souvenir to cash in on the remaining IDRs.
Make attempts to get a window seat on the north side with a clear glass as the take off leads you to the amazing scenic views of the Bali island - couple of volcano craters look fabulous from top - and you can also see two lakes high up in the mountains (I can't actually locate them on Google Maps). A quick in-flight snack and we caught up on the lost sleep. The flight from Bali to Singapore is a short one and soon we were gazing at the beautiful islands and the landscaping, and numerous vessels in the sea, just before landing at Changi. Passing through the airport formalities was a breeze, and we headed to Ikea on the Tampines road. Ikea is one of her favorite destinations wherever she goes; it's always on the must visit list. Walking through the huge store was an adventure in itself - you can practically find everything you need for a house under one roof. Picked up a couple of things, pack them tight in our rucksack-cum-cabin-baggage; went to the Courts right across the street for a quick lunch. Back to Ikea to catch a taxi to the airport.
Back at the Airport, caught up with the rest who had been to Mustafa. Went around the Changi Airport, checked out various shops - most of them with overpriced stuff; Do people really shop here? Fortunately, the drinks were quite cheap; they picked up a couple of bottles; Starbucks coffee, a bit of waiting for our flight back home, boarding and we are flying home now. Though being nastiest of the cities, being back in Bangalore does feel nice. Our gold fish, fighter, plants and Monu-Jumbo were as eager to see us as we were to see them.
