Now in OC California.
Delayed at Beijing Airport due to Mechanical fault.
Beijing airport, looks big, but they dont allow us to travel
between terminals, so I spent over $300 shopping. I only
realised how expensive everything was when I sat down for a beer at
a pub restaurant.
Did the calculation and realised that my beer cost $5/- and the
panini sandwich with one slice of lettuce, 3 pieces of bacon cost
$30........
And I didnt realise the milk scare from china was so bad, the 5
boxes of expensive chocolates from China looks about to go into a
trashbin.
4 boxees of majong shaped chocolates & 1 box of chinese
opera mask shaped chocolates...
My lips went dry during the flight and no amount of lipbalm is
saving me now. Trying to drink plenty of water now.
The last leg of the flight, I was trapped at the window seat
with a china mummy & two daughters. The kids are very
quiet and shy, and the mother did have some hard time trying to
hold her elder daughter to sleep. The gal threw up and I
helped with containing her vomit and helped the mother to clean her
up.
It was not a comfortable journey since I was trapped at the seat
for most part of that journey.
