This post makes me think we were neighbours (when I read about your mum etc thought it may have been you) Were you in third room down, left had side from front pool? I was in first room on hols with my 20 something daughter - did your mum move into the room that your friends vacated? Would love to know how they went with baggage weight 'cause even tho the bags (brilliant idea btw) compressed was unsure about making difference in weight and boy did those guys (first timers) buy up BIG.
On our return flight we saw one couple in front of us covertly (not very lol) passing over 100,000 rup 'cause they were 6kgs overweight (boy was the husband stressing out - thought he was about to have a serious panic attack - so much so he dropped his wallet with tickets etc and didn't even realise, I had to go chasing after him with them.
Realising what was happening we quickly stepped to the next check in, were just over 6kg over and not a word was said. Go figure. I did have a few dollars handy just in case tho. lol.
