This entire day was spent either on a plane or running between planes. I didn't really sleep that much on the flight to Singapore, as I was cramped in a middle seat. I watched The Pursuit of Happyness -- pretty good - and read loads. Unfortunately at Heathrow the check-in lady wasn't able to check my bags through to Perth so when the flight into Singapore was delayed by about an hour leaving me with about 30 mins to changed flights I started to get a little stressed, especially when they started announcing the gates and boarding times for ongoing flights and my flight was due to board about 20 mins after we were due to land. Thankfully Qantas customer service proved amazing and there was a guy with my name on a board waiting for me as I got off the plane telling me to quickly go the flight transfers to get my bag checked through the the next flight. So after a quick dash to flight transfers and another jog back to my gate I was on the flight to Perth - didn't even have time to go to the toilet.
After another 7 hours I was in Perth, and surprisingly so was my bag. I managed to find my way to a shuttle bus which took me to my hostel, Governor Robinsons in Northbridge. The hostel seems pretty nice and I have a massive room so I'm happy enough. Now I just have to try to sort out the jet lag......
