Wednesday evening, I get on that "steel tube with wings" for the slog to LAX via CKS.
Yes, this is steel tube with wings...
I've never connected through Taipei; wonder what kind of facilities (food) they got? Of course, since I AM flying Singapore Airlines, I'll probably be all full and won't even need to partake of the fine airport fare that CKS has to offer. But I digress...
Last night (the night before tonight), I met up with Xuan for a nightcap. This being Singapore, it rained, so our initial plans of visiting Loof went "poof". Instead, we ducked into a hotel bar for sapphire-tonics and sharing stories about life, travel and Texas and South Dakota in the winter. Charming!
I....think I need to lose some weight there....
And speaking of rain, about 0400, the mother of all thunderstorms blew through. Woke up everyone in the dorm as it was a light and sound show of magnificent proportions. It was neat except for the mess in the bathroom afterwards because someone left the window open (not me!!). Best of all, I fell asleep (I usually have problems sleeping shortly before a long flight) to the sound of rain. Nice.
