A small load of laundry through the wash and hanging on the line before my 9am visit to my hairdresser for a quick shampoo and blow wave. After that it was the final few things into the suitcase, zip it up and lock it. The bathroom scales registered 15.5kg with some room in the luggage for souvenirs. Magnets don't take up a lot of room. The carry-on weighed 9kg. Mind you, that has the laptop, the DSLR and batteries & chargers etc in it. I've only ever had a carry-on weighed once.

My driver arrived for the 4:15pm pick up and I was whisked off to Canberra Airport. I had checked the luggage in (16.3kg according to the check-in scales) and was ensconced in the Qantas lounge well before 5pm. Good thing I have brought my kindle with me, as it helps while away the "between flights" time.
The flight to Melbourne departed on time at 6:20 and touched down in Melbourne at 7:17pm. I like Melbourne airport. A short walk from the domestic airport and you are at the International one. After going through security, (my handbag was held for a 2nd run through, as I had the iPad & kindle next to each other and it was a bit dense for the machine to read properly), straight through to immigration and then to the lounge. It's 8:20pm and I'm going to have a bite to eat.
The next flight is due to depart at 9:15pm, so next update will be in Dubai.
