Day 39 - Goodbye Netherlands, Hello Singapore
13.08.2019
34 °C
Today we had to get up early to leave for the airport! We had to leave at 6.30am to get to the airport on time, so we had to get up at 5.30am!
We quickly gathered our last few things, and hopped in the car.

We drove the car back to the hire car place, and then checked in for the airport.
We hadn’t had time for breakfast, and we wanted our very last McKroket before we left the Netherlands, so we went to McDonald’s. Sadly, they didn’t sell McKroket’s at the airport! In the mean time, Titus had a quick nap.

Before long, we were boarding our flight.

We were sitting in seperate rows with a Auke and the kids in front, and Ali behind. This time we were flying with Singapore airlines which was really nice!
They had a menu, and the food was good. They also had a page of things you could request such as socks or earplugs.






Much to Ali’s excitement, they even had cocktails (although when she asked which ones they had, they only had a Singapore Sling, but it was still great!).

The flight went well, and Titus even had a nap in the bassinet for a couple hours. Sadly, every time the seatbelt sign went on we had to take him out of the bassinet which meant he had to keep waking up. For the most part, the turbulence was minimal, although there was one patch for about 15 minutes that was very bumpy.


After what seemed like forever, we finally reached Singapore.
As they somehow how checked our flight through to Wellington, despite them telling us we would have it in Singapore, we used one of the airport prams which Titus seemed to love.

We had tried to book a hotel online, but it hadn’t worked, so we were turning up with nowhere to stay!
Thankfully, the airport motel had a spare room that was available straight away so we booked that, all had showers, and crashed into bed! This time there was no maintenance going on!
