Hi,
We're sitting in a very large food court in the Hong Kong airport. The trip has offered some pleasant surprises so far. The adventure continues.
This week's 'Easy Monday' song was "Smooth Operator" by Sade. Ming has suggested a Sade Revival. I like the idea. But first we have to get 'Zany Day' under way. Here's a tribute to this time of year. "Well we got no choice, all the girls and boys, makin'all that noise 'cause they found new toys. Well, we can't salute ya, can't find a flag, if that don't suit ya, that's a drag. __ __ for summer. __ __ forever..." Clue: I think this may be obvious. Singer had quite a zany visual presentation.
Today's photo is one of the many curiosities we see from day to day. Most school kids are driven around in vans or pick-ups. This bus takes the cake for secure transportation, and, it's a long way from Fresno. When I first saw it, I thought it was a prisoner bus. Some kids might agree.
This morning Daku knew what was going on. Actually, I think he knew last night. At 8am both dogs confronted us and wanted to go outside and play. We managed to escape to the airport right on time. While getting coffee at the airport we noticed they were selling frozen dinners. What? OK, so you buy a frozen dinner, fly to Bangkok, drive through the traffic in the heat and by the time you get home it's ready for the oven. (555)
In Bangkok, we were looking at that 7 hour wait. As we passed the time with a foot massage, Lisa got a call from Cathay Pacific telling her that they wanted us to take an earlier flight so we could connect with the L.A. flight. Oh, and they'd have to upgrade us to business. Sweet.
The Hong Kong airport is like a giant shopping mall. A great deal looks like it was modeled after Rodeo Drive. Needless to say, we're not shopping; everything is so overpriced it hurts. Now if they had a Ross or a Target, well...
In a few hours we will board the plane and spend 11 hours suspended above the clouds, over the Pacific Ocean. I'm ready for a nap.
See you in a different time zone.
Time for Wacky Wednesday.
Peace,
Danny
