- Blogging on my life events & whatever that comes to my mind!
We are now in Changi waiting for your next flight to KL which departs at 7:10 a.m. The free internet is great, a little slow, but it’s working great.
We started off the morning of departing MSP on a horrible note. DB had to run his errands at the last minute which made us 1.5 hours late checking in. We were the last ones to board the plane. Of course going through security was hell, too, since he had so much crap brought with him.
The flight from MSP to Narita (NRT) was a flight from hell. The row next to us was a family of 4 – parents and two very young kids. The younger kid was screaming his lungs off the moment in was in the plane. The only time he shut up was when he was sucking the tit and then he starting screaming again. The most peaceful moment was when he was sleeping for about a few hours before the arrival at NRT, then he started again.
They were at the same flight with us to SIN too. Good thing they were at the back of the plane, so the screaming and crying was not too bad. We slept the most during this segment. The Airbus is still the best compared to NWA’s old crappy Boeing 747s. They really suck. We sure felt like we were in a cattle herd.
We are checking our emails, banking, pay bills, and me gotta blog first. Oh, my camera crapped out on me when we boarded the plane in MSP. I wanted to take a picture of DB and me, the cattle herd, and the cool high school kid (Kelsey Douglass-White) who sat next to me, the camera gave me a black screen of death. It has power, new batteries, but can’t see anything out of it. DAMN!!!! We have to get it fix when we get to Ipoh.
Kinda pissed me off. Oh well.
Next we are going to do now is to get coffee, walk around a little as our butts needed to be stretched out! Then I will have to go to the fitness center and workout, then shower. Db will do the same.
Till the next post…..
wohoo, your vacation started. Enjoy yourselves in Malaysia yeah!!!
It snowed for a little while here in the morning. Kinda nice since it’s the first snow shower here in 2007.
Lucky you!!!! You’re almost home!!!! Bet your family is excited. I’m leaving MSP tomorrow. Like you, I have a lot of last minute stuff to do too.
hi dawn,
welcome back to hot…hot…Malaysia.
Have a great holiday.
Hi Dawn
Oh! I wish I could be in your place – on the way home.
I can fully understand how you feel about the trip being crappy all because of a screaming child. It was torture for me when I flew from Frankfurt to Houston in August. That child just could not stop crying and screaming. Sometimes I pity them because their discomfort in the plane could be due to so many reasons.
Well, enjoy your holiday and look forward to some updates. I will come in when I can. Been a little busy lately. I will be away for Thanksgiving.
Welcome home and enjoy your vacation!
Hi!
My name is Kelsey Douglass-White. I’m the high school student you sat next to on the airplane when I was on my way to China.
I googled my name and saw that I was mentioned on this blog. I thought, “Wow! Not many people have my exact same name…. In fact, I’ve never heard of anyone else having it.” So I figured the blog was from someone who had actually met me. When I discovered it was you, I was pretty darned excited!!!
Please email me back when you get a chance. I would love to hear from you about how your vacation went
