About Airports And Transits

7.30pm, that was the time me and my friends (damien, winson, dickson) were supposed to meet at the main terminal of KLIA :) so says 7.30 and as usual with all the reasons in the world which i don't wanna get started on, i was late :| and i got my friends waiting, urgghhh, what a bad feeling it was, but well it wasn't my fault that i got stuck in the jam for nearly half an hour (here i go again)...
but well, so my friends waited and i arrived 15 minutes later, we checked in and got everything settled and waited for the time to enter the departure hall, ohhhh, all the scanning and stuff.

RAPE!! RAPE!! nah i was just joking, haha but well, i did got literally 'raped' by the imigration officer, as in i was being performed a body check after the metal detector sounded when i walked through it, apparently it was due to my belt :( and i still can't believe that i lost my virginity just because of that ^^

After countless security procedures, finally! at last! in the end! i was in the plane, after 8 years since the last time i was on board a plane. lol, this time, it was made even sweetter with the japanese stewardess welcoming us on board :p

Barely able to settle down, we were immediately told that we were about to touch down at Changi, rumoured, or at least that was what i heard to be the best airport in the world. Well, it turned out to be somewhat true :) with so much of free stuff around, massage chairs, good internet, free TV and the list goes on and on....


Me & Changi :)


Changi

8 hours later...

The worst has yet to come, but the coming flight will be a 7 hours one, hardly i could imagine resting my a$$ on a chair for twice the time it usually takes for me to return to my hometown, but whatever :p 7 hours of torture ensued, lol, the hardest thing was to find something to keep myself occupied, sleeping wasn't a really great option due to the terrible turbulence now and then.

But somehow, 7 hours passed and we landed in Tokyo Narita airport.Well, to be honest, Narita wasn't as good as Changi in terms of entertainment, but hell, it was holy clean and the legendary toilets in Japan was really true, heated seats, automatic wash, super clean floors and on and on and on. 3 hours, that was the time we had in Narita before we boarded our next plane, so all we could do was to hang out at our departure gate and kill out time there. Up next will be the mother of all tortures, a 12 hours flight, urghhhh........


woooooooot, me beside an aeroplane in Narita :p

What i could did during the 12 hours flight was just sleep sleep and sleep, there were much turbulence, very, shaky ones, lol, at times i was wondering whether i could reach chicago in one piece or not, haha.. our flight brought us across the alps like mountain near Alaska and what a sight to behold and i even managed to grab some pictures :) there was nothing much about this flight besides the food, which was among the best meal we ever had since we started our journey towards the east (east yes, we flew across pacific).









Upon arrival at the chicago airport, we were required to go through the customs and later take a domestice flight towards Orlando, Florida. LOL, i got the scare of my life when the customs detained me for further interview (only me and not my friends), i was interviewed by a customs officer and everything turned out fine after all but i had to admit, i'd never felt that kind of fear in my life before. We moved on to the departure gate of our domestic flight after going through the stringent checks of the US customs. Before that, we managed to grab some fresh air outside the airport and the temperature was a cool below 20 celcius, there were time for some pictures too :) All i did on the next flight was to sleep and soon we arrived at our destination and we were transported to our condos after a short wait.
