Driving down from new Norcia to Perth Airport, we had a couple of hours to kill. We called into McDonald’s for free internet and realised that our flight scheduled for 1750 was delayed. So we killed some time at the nearby mall.
Kim had bought an expensive (by my standards) Tissot watch in KL airport while departing. It was an impulse decision which I wasn’t comfortable with. In the mall (and also later at Perth airport) he compared his purchase price at KL airport with the Australian prices.
The price at KL airport was half the Ozzie price! The difference was enough to pay for eight of the nine economy class flights flown during this holiday! Is that amazing or what!?!?!
You’ve probably heard of happy endings in a massage … but this is truly a happy ending to his travels!
