  Friday 29th of July 2016 and Qantas Airways flight QF1940 departs from Ayers Rock at 10:35.  We will leave the hotel 2 hours before and I had asked for a wake up call  for 6 o'clock.
The flight is operated by Qantaslink - National Jet Systems and we will land in Alice Springs at 11:20. I will have to wait until 13:10 when Qantas flight QF722 is departing to Adelaide from Alice Springs. I was at the reception to check out at 8 thirty and I kept my eyes out for birds while waiting for the airport shuttle. We made two  or three stops before we left for the airport and it was a 10 minutes drive to get there. We were going with AAT Kings again and I like their buses.
Friendly drivers, at least the two I have met. I also see that they have WIFI on the buses I have seen, at least there is the WIFI symbol on the buses. So I would not mind going with them again, of course, if it is a short trip. And they are obviously also arranging tours, everything form one day tours to several days. Anyway, we arrived to Ayers Rock Airport and we got our bags and I went inside the terminal.          Security, same thing, until they discovered that I had e-cigarettes in my bag. They took them out and they wanted to take them apart and put tape on them in order to seal them. - Hold it right there buddy boy! - We need to seal them, not allowed - How do you do with real cigarettes? - It is not possible to do anything with them - So why with the e-cigarette? Anyway, I asked them to stop and I took my things and went outside again. I can as well enjoy my e-cigarette untold time for boarding. So I was walking around looking for birds. And I also saw when our plane arrived so there was no end to the excitements while I was enjoying my e-cigarette.  Our plane arrives to Ayers Rock

I got off the flight and as I was about to piss my pants I went straight to the bathroom. I don't  know if it is since I started with the smoked salmon in my cabin. No salt and I have started to go to the bathroom every 5 minutes. If I'm lucky I can piss myself to a V-shaped torso. If I'm unlucky I have got an deadly decease and I will piss my self to death.  I went in to the  coffee shop and I bought a bottle of orange juice and a bottle of water.  Hmm, thinking of it, there might be a third reason for me having to run to the bathroom all the time.
Anyway, I ripped off the tape from the e-cigarette as soon as I was out from the bathroom. I uploaded some of my pictures and it was soon time to board Qantas flight QF722, the last leg  Alice Springs to Adelaide is 1h 50m
When I checked-in at Ayers Rock I had an empty seat next to me on both flights. But there was so many people waiting to board so I went to Qantas service desk. The flight was full and I had someone next to me. I was disappointed, but it is only a short flight and I had the aisle seat. I was just about to board when the girl came with a new boarding pass, she had found a seat and it turned out that I had 3 THREE seats for my self. Otherwise there wasn't any empty seats on Qantas flight QF722 to Adelaide. And no need for any security check, it was done in Ayers Rock. They checked my luggage for traces from explosives and the machine was not working. They closed down the whole security  check and I was wondering what was going on. Was it “pay back” for my e-cigarette?
I walked over the tarmac to our plane and I discovered that the plane's name was Kakadu. A perfect name as I'm saying farewell to North and Central Australia. From now on I will stay in the  South of Australia. I have had an excellent time and it have been very fun.
Now it is time to say good bye and I will never come back again, now I have seen  this part of Australia and, well, I'm not homesick. But a day without having to wake up at 5 o'clock in the morning would be nice.

This is my fourth domestic flight in Australia this time in Australia. It have been 4 nice flights. The Qantas staff is very friendly and the Australian airports are very nice and convenient. The  Australian airports, well, I have not had have any good experiences from Australian airports.
Last time in Perth it was like India back in the 80's. But now they are very nice and clean and restaurants and shops so there is nothing missing. I had booked a taxi for 15:30 and there were no sign of any driver. I was around looking and asking at the different desks. After 20 minutes I went out in the taxi queue to get a taxi to Cape Jervis and the SeaLink Ferry to Kangaroo Island. Will I get sea sick on the ferry? Will I make it in time? Well, we just need to click HERE to find out about the adventure on Kangaroo Island.
