New Caledonia - Entry 6 - La Fin

Well, the holiday was quickly drawing to an end and we were up bright and early to ensure we didn't find ourselves stranded on a tropical island. Actually, I dont think I'd particularly mind being stranded on THIS island, but unfortunately it was time to go.

Our 'ride' came in the form of a covoy of relatives, who gave us lovely parting gifts in an attempt go send us over the Air Calin baggae weight limit. Of course, the aforementioned airport renovations involved an extensive upgrade to the Duty Free shopping areas.

While my travel partners were checking out the perfumes and designer luggage, I couldnt help but gawk at these beauties:

Mmmm... Cant you just feel it go straight to your hips?

In hindsight, that probably would've made the perfect comfort food - it's not easy to say goodbye to them all. But I'll be back next year!
Oh, and I was leaving for Vietnam in a little over a week!!!
