Early in the morning, the crew of the Star Dancer took myself and the other guests to Rabaul airport. I flew with Air Niugini from Rabaul via Port Moresby to Brisbane in Australia. In Brisbane it was hot and humid, and the overnight stay in a badly air-conditioned 4 star hotel was really quite uncomfortable :-( The following morning I flew on with Qantas via Sydney to Singapore. Unfortunately I was disappointed by Quantas, who gave me no leeway for excess baggage despite being a business class passenger. Many airlines will find some compromise, but Quantas just gave a strict "no". The price was shameless, I could have easily taken another Economy Class passenger with me instead. What about people who weigh 100kg? They only have to pay the regular price too! The arrival in Sydney made up for the annoyance with the excess baggage. I had a sunny and peaceful day in Darlin Harbour. As always when I visit Sydney, I looked for a sushi restaurant there and enjoyed the fresh fish with a view of the Sydney skyline. To round off, I photographed the opera house and the Harbour bridge.
