3-4 March 2025 – Home to Perth

Our journey to Byron Shire, NSW started just after midday on the 3rd March with a taxi ride to Heathrow terminal 3 then a flight to Hong Kong. After an expensive beer in Hong Kong we boarded the next flight to Perth, WA eventually arriving at our chosen hotel late on the 4th March.

One of the receptionists was from Ayrshire.

On the flights we had the option of watching newer films such as Conclave and Heretic as well some oldies and a lot of films which were probably more suited to the Chinese speaking Hong Kong audience.

LHR to PER via HKG

I watched a couple of animations and documentaries as well as some normal films

  • Up
  • Robot Dreams
  • Free Climb
  • A different man

PER to BRE

I started watching The Wild Robot and a couple of episodes of Better Call Saul

On the return flights I watched

BRE to HKG

  • The Wild Robot
  • Waitress: The Musical – the start… primarily since it stars Sara Bareilles
  • Asteroid City – mostly with my eyes closed

  • The Long Game
  • Next goal wins
  • Here – with Tom Hanks
  • Gladiator II
  • High Potential – the pilot episode
