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.

Getting to sleep had been a struggle. I felt unusually cold, largely because the air-conditioning unit was positioned directly above me, and I had a vague concern that I might wake up with a stiff neck.

After arriving at Gate 3, it was door 1L that opened first. That had become something of a theme on this Asia leg, particularly with Cathay Pacific.

After a solid night’s sleep at the Regal Skycity Hotel, I woke at around 5am — refreshed and ready for my final flight before a long-awaited day off.
