The final day in the city started with us doing some packing and placing the things beside the bags that it should go into. Breakfast was still the same toast and eggs. After breakfast, we went to grab few can of beers that is to be use as souvenir. On the way back to our hotel, we went into a shop selling clothing's and the pricing was reasonable, so we each grabbed a similar matching shorts, at least we get an item which is fairly priced rather than carrying back a currency which we don't know when we will use it again. Back to the bag shop, we grabbed a bag that we fancy knowing that back home, it would cost at least twice the price we paid for.
We did our final packing and waited for the taxi which the hotel had helped us to arrange and paid for. This taxi is called Saigon Air and is not the same company as the Green Toyota Innova. When we arrive at the airport, the taxi driver actually ask for tips from me! Tips has always been given willingly and out of courtesy rather than being asked.
The Q for checking in was super long as a huge group of people from the Malaysia Karate team was also doing their group check in. Not trying to be racist but i notice that the group was mainly and largely made up of the darker skin tone when i had always thought that Karate had the participation of the 3 main etnic group in Malaysia. We waited almost half an hour before seeing that we could go to the other counter where the team wasn't in Q, as all of us thought that we had to wait behind them. Maybe next time for those who have check in, please stand and wait elsewhere as people would think that you are also waiting to check-in and drop the luggage. Our return luggage was far below the allowance that we had purchase as many items that was planned didn't materialize.
In the boarding area, we saw the group of 4 girls again as they was taking the same flight as us. They was transiting in KL before taking the connecting flight back to Sabah the same night.
