Headed down to Winchester to see Andrew and Sam. Add in a bit of sailing with Andrew as skip. Turned out to be fun.

I slept fairly well — at least by my standards. I switched the light off at around 9:30pm and didn’t wake until about 2:30am. That might not sound like much to some people, but on a trip like this, it was plenty for me.

Having only climbed into bed at around 5am, it was entirely reasonable that today turned into a very gentle one. As a result, I didn’t actually do very much of any real consequence — and that was absolutely fine.

Photos from Day 14, when I spent an 11 hour layover at Tokyo Narita Airport, enjoyed a flight to Jakarta, fought my way through a rain soaked Jakarta to my hotel and watched Liverpool beat Newcastle 4-1.

I arrived at Gate 93 while things were still calm and orderly. I spoke to the gate staff and had my document checks completed early, including showing my D1 visa. That at least saved some hassle when it came time to board.

Photos from Day 12, when I enjoyed an early start to the day in Denpasar, I took a Cathay Pacific flight back to Hong Kong and I had an easy ride on the way to the Skycity hotel.

Cathay Pacific only operated a single daily flight from Denpasar, which was the return leg of the Hong Kong service I’d taken a couple of days earlier.

I’d made a comfortable start to the night, but I woke just after midnight with far too many thoughts racing around my head.

Photos from Day 11, when I spent a fair bit of time at the airport, did some sight seeing in and around Denpasar and enjoyed a lovely dinner at the hotel restaurant.

I briefly considered delaying the start of my sightseeing in the hope that traffic might ease later in the morning. The counter-argument was obvious, though: leave it too late and I’d risk drifting off to sleep instead.
