At 3.30am, I drove all the way from the hotel and arrived at KLIA at 5.00am. I parked my car and took the parking token.
I changed the currency to get AUS$1000 (AUS$1 = RM2.72) and later I bought the Da Vinci Code book.

We took the Perth Airport shuttle to the Emerald Hotel. We slept early today to save our energy for tomorrow.
