MERCEDES Corby was greeted by her family’s dogs Luna and May as she arrived back at the Kuta home where her sister Schapelle is living ahead of her return to Australia.

Mercedes arrived in Bali on Friday to help with Schapelle’s return plans and has spent the past few days resting at an island off Bali.

She arrived back at the home on Tuesday afternoon and will now turn her mind to preparing for her sister’s return to Australia.

Meanwhile, Schapelle has remained holed up in the rented Kuta home she shares with her brother Michael and boyfriend Ben Panangian and has not been seen since last Friday.

Michael and Ben have been seen coming and going from the home, often with surfboards.

Yesterday an ABC crew from Jakarta, who had approached the home, had a waterbottle thrown at them from within the fence.

A man then appeared wearing what looked like a mask.

The two family dogs, which Schapelle has cared for since her release on parole and to which she is close, will remain in Bali when she leaves.

Corby’s 15-year drug smuggling sentence expires on May 27.

On this day she will sign her parole for the final time and then be deported to Australia on the first available flight.

Corby has lived in Bali, on parole, for the past three years and is understood to be apprehensive about leaving the island where she has spent most of the last 13 years of her life since her arrest on October 8, 2004.

Initially sentenced to 20 years in jail for trafficking 4.2kg of marijuana to Bali, she eventually won a clemency plea and five-year sentence cut from Indonesia’s President on humanitarian grounds, given the mental illness she developed in jail.
