The flight to Taipei on
China Airlines was awesome... it was only a 2 hr flight but came complete with a meal and free alcoholic beverages... China is definitely going to take over the world. The airport in Taipei was eerily deserted when I landed but filled up when I got towards the international flights. They have art exhibits scattered throughout the aiport. High tech furniture, flowers, wood carvings, murals, paintings... I really want to visit Taiwan sometime.
Bangkok, also another place I need to go. Next trip? I had a 4 hour layover and there was enough food and things to keep me busy. Dairy Queen, pizza, fruit smoothies... all the things one could miss in Japan. I exchanged some of my money to Bhat... which has their president on every denomination.
I also had my first experience with an Indian here... pushy bastard who cut in front of me while I was waiting in line... hilariously, the girl taking my order shut him down with a hand that chopped the air, bruce lee style... then she turned and took my order while the indian guy had a dumbfounded look on his face.
On the way to my gate, attendants at the airport said my flight was leaving... I rushed to the gate to find I had another hour to wait...
Traveling lesson - Always where a watch.
Response:
Later in the trip, after India mentally exhausting us down to a nub, Hahn and I completely forgot about a day...I think it was a Thursday. I figured Hahn would bring a watch, and in fine style, he believed I would bring one. I have since acquired a watch.
