Anyway, we came home with heaps of stuff. Mum and Dad threw two parties for Naina, which meant a luggage weight of 62 kg. We ended up sending three boxes back to Melbourne by Australia Post, plus leaving some mammoth toys and stuff in Perth and still were just overweight at the airport.
I have a new respect for Qantas. They have bassinets on long haul domestic flights. This meant that on the way back, Deepti did not have to pouch N for three hours and had about only 30 minutes of carrying. N spent the rest of the time on our laps or asleep in the bassinet. We're going to Perth in Jan for Green and Catherine's wedding, we'll be flying Qantas again.
Deepti had shocking luck with any take away food during the trip back. The morning of the flight, the sandwich from the airport was foul, possibly rotten (don't eat food from the Qantas terminal cafe in the middle of the departure lounge, a huge cockroach was also loose in the shop), then from Spicey Dragon, a samosa that was also out of date.
Anyway, getting back to the car in Melbourne after nearly two weeks in Perth and three weeks alone in Melbourne was rewarding in itself. The luggage getting into the car proved a trickier exercise.
Sulo bin and witches hat not included in luggage allowance.Baby considered carry on.
