2nd Day In A Foreign Land

At this time as I’m writing my blog, it’s actually 2am on the 3rd day that I arrived this foreign land.


People commented that NW / DL is the lousiest carrier going to the States but I didn’t feel any difference as compared to the other flights I’ve sat on like Cathay, Qantas, Garuda, etc. The flight was smooth sailing except for occasional moments of turbulence which I think it’s really normal.

Our first league was from SIN - Tokyo. It was a 7 hour + flight and I slept through the whole flight like a baby. I only woke up on occasions to eat and I went on back to sleep. Same goes for my 2nd league from Tokyo - Portland. I spent another 9 hours + flight sleeping and waking up just to eat snacks or dinner. The meals served on both flights were pretty nice I must say. I think I’ve eaten worse flight meals.

The last league from Portland - Boise was slightly more choppy as it was just a propellor plane. Again for that 1 hour + flight I was sleeping through. Adrian wonders if the air sick tablet that I had taken before my first flight was this powerful that is causing me to sleep almost the entire 18 hour flight excluding the transit timings. I absolutely have no idea :)

Portland wasn’t as cold as I anticipated but my gosh, it was really cold when I stepped into Boise. There was a football team coming back at the time when I arrive Boise airport so there were some videographers and reporters. For a minute I was wondering if they were welcoming us :P

There was a small issue when I arrived Boise. One of my luggage didn’t travel with me and I had to do a claim at the Baggage Service. It was a good thing that I had packed winter clothes in both my luggages although I was missing my skincare and moisturizer.

Ok that’s all for now... till later.
