chasing the sun
March 27, 2007
So that was a really long flight.
Also, it turns out that the only Airbus 340 without power outlets for the laptop and without individual movie screens was — yup — the one I got stuck with. I know, I know, boo hoo. But 14 hours is just reason for my initial disappointment. It worked out though cause I got free beer and wine.
Anyway, at Hong Kong airport now. Definitely more serene and quiet than I imagined:
I ordered an egg tart and the lady thought I was weird for not ordering two at once… I tried to explain that I wasn’t that hungry but it’s 5 am for me and the words didn’t come together. Oh and I went on the automatic human conveyor belt in the wrong direction. Nice.
Anyway, looks like the Bangkok flight is boarding. Later!
word ferd! i’m glad you survived that long haul 🙂 (on the cheapie airbus no less). what’s an egg tart??
