A Trip of a Lifetime!
Up at 3:30am for my flight home. It was the hardest thing I've ever had to do saying goodbye to Sam this morning but we knew we both had to be strong. I had had the most incredible 4 months of my life but I couldn't wait to go home to see my family. Sam and I knew we'd see each other again soon. He was planning on coming over to England and that made me really happy. Off I headed into Melbourne airport. My first flight to Dubai was 14 hours and my second flight was 7 hours, a very long journey! And before I knew it, I was back in Manchester airport, greeted by Mummy and Daddy in the arrivals hall. It was the best feeling seeing them after so long, and I couldn't believe I had arrived home in one piece! What an incredible 4 months, I am such a lucky girl and it will certainly be an experience I will never forget!
