Safe in Singapore, now to Christchurch... but earthquake?! :-(

We landed safe in Singapore (great flight services!), slept in a airport hotel and were on our way to visit a friend in the centre for a beer and than fly to Christchurch. Just posted that on facebook, when a friend in NL reported a devastating earthquake hit New Zealand.... 65 dead already. :-( Poor people!! We fly in a few hours to this town, and also had a booking at the campground near this city. Not sure what we can do, but my mind says tourists should stay out.... so will see what will be happening.

Let the trip begin

A few hours are left before the lift off for flight Amsterdam to Singapore. Bags are packed, batteries charged and only a good night sleep is left "to do".

It will be an early wake up and a long flight, but for a big trip , investments must be made ;-) 12 hours wait in Singapore, (we hope to meet an old friend there and also made a reservation for the Airport Hotel for some sleep and fresh up), before the 10 hrs flight Singapore - Christchurch will fly.

Today our parents came by to say goodbye, and we even went to visit the Greek restaurant for an excellent dinner. Lets back the small bags and call it a night.

Let the trip begin.
