And an even nicer one at Auntie Allison and Uncle John's place in Coorparoo . . .

For what happened next, click here . . . And remember - scroll to the bottom the first time around!

And to Brisbane International Airport . .. where a very welcome reception committee awaited our arrival!

But we were all keen to get back to Brisso by now, so it was back on the big jet . .. with a quick detour via the cockpit . . .

And some of the kids we found on the houses on stilts . . .

And here's one of the spray-makers . .

Here's Mummy staying out of the spray . . .

Including the famous Bandar Seri Begawan Floating Village - which we put on a dress for . . .

Before heading off to see some sights - like you do . .

Mum and I gave the beds a sleep of approval . . .

A Very Big Place. . . . built for a CHOGM conference and then reopened for us . . .

and even though the lagoon pool was being re-lagooned, some pretty cool alternatives . . .

. . . and bathrooms . . .

with very nice rooms . . .

It was a big place . . .

We stayed at the Empire Country Club (and hotel) for a couple of nights - it's a long, long way from Europe to Australia apparently, although I've never tried to wlak it myself - so a stop over somewhere Dad could feel he was getting a decent night's sleep was a popular choice . . .

We seemed pretty popular on board our jet too . .

and here we are a few naps and meals and tours of the plane later . . . Brunei!

And this is what business class gets you lots more of . . space! And great cupboards in the lounges for playing hide and seek!
