Now for the Recovery.

Finally I am back in Singapore. From the lack of updates, I guess most people would've guessed that I made it to Perth.

Miracles do happen. On Monday afternoon, we received a call that someone has seen 2 empty seats on the midnight flight to Perth and very quickly booked 2 of us on the seats before its taken. (Thanks to the blessed soul who must have been constantly refreshing the computer screen.)

And the remaining 2 of our friends managed to get 2 allocations at the last minute on the midnight flight !

So we all made it to Perth, just in time for KOP's funeral.

I will leave out the personal details, but I will say that KOP should be happy with all the funeral arrangements that D and family has so patiently worked out.

He is in the place that he so gladly called home.

Came back on Friday night and Saturday morning was the service in Singapore. All went smoothly.

*~*~*~*~*

Thanks also to all online friends. Your words of encouragements have been seen by D and she is touched.

I think KOP would also want everyone to remember his voyage, his ordeals, and his words of wisdom. And finally, never give up on your dreams.

I can't believe that he has died. His journey in Australia has barely started.
