Travel diary: MNL-HKG-LHR
MNL-HKG
Flight: CX 218 (Cathay Pacific), around 90 minutes
Notes: Volunteered to take an earlier flight to HK. Better to wait at HKIA than NAIA.
Dinner: Slightly spicy beef with rice.
Viewed: CSI:NY
Check-in baggage: 27 kilos (!!!)
HKG-LHR
Flight: CX 251 (red-eye), 11 hours 45 mins
Notes: Some flight attendants are in vintage Cathay uniforms. Prefer the 50s grey manang look with pleated skirt to the late 60s red minidress.
Dinner: Penne pasta in red sauce
Breakfast: Asian noodles
Viewed: The Da Vinci Code, American Dreamz, and the bios of Simon Cowell and Olivia Newton-JOhn on E!
Train: Heathrow Terminal 3 to King's Cross on the Piccadilly line, about an hour
Black cab: King's Cross to Ashwell House, less than 10 minutes
Off to Dijon tomorrow. It's possible that I'll be quiet for the next few days, if there's no Internet connection within easy reach. I have a few posts up my sleeve, but the travel kwento will have to wait until next week, when I've uploaded the photos.
(I can't believe I'm actually here. Pinch me!)
