2013 10 22 MY HONG KONG TRIP_SKY ART FROM THE WINDOW SEAT

CLOUDS.

SUCH A SOOTHING VISUAL AND A FORTUNATE-NATURAL VIEW TO HAVE.

I AM GRATEFUL TO LIVE IN AN AREA WHERE THE SKY LOOKS LIKE THE OPENING TO "THE SIMPSON'S" CARTOON.

AT TIMES, HAVING THE FULL WINDOW VIEW WITH THE WING OR SKY FULLY FRAMED BY THE PLANE LETS ME STARE OUT WITH ANTICIPATION OF CHANGING COLORS AND ILLUMINATING ABSTRACTS.

ONLY 20 MIN AFTER DEPARTURE (3:40 PM)

WITH SOME MORE WAYS TO GO UNTIL REACHING FINAL DESTINATION.....

THIS PHOTO TAKEN AT 7:50 PM

EXPLORING ON SOME STATS.....

ABOUT A LITTLE OVER AN HOUR, I LOOKED OUT THE WINDOW AND WITNESSED CHANGING SHADES OF BLUE. THE MINGLING OF THE CLOUDS DRIFTS FROM DARK TO LIGHT. ARE WE CROSSING OVER THE TIME ZONE? LITERALLY? MAYBE THAT SHOULD BE A QUESTION FOR MY PILOT FRIEND. .....K.R.!!!!!

DARKNESS APPROACHED, GIVING IT A DIFFERENT DIMENSION OF COLORS.

I THINK I WAS WATCHING SOME MOVIE WHILE STARING OUT "IN SPACE" -- HA! LITERALLY. THEN WE WERE INTERRUPTED AND NOTIFIED THAT WE WERE GETTING CLOSE TO LANDING.

FINALLY ARRIVED! OH, IT WAS ONLY A BIZZILION SOMETHING HOUR FLIGHT. RIGHT?

MY UN-ADJUSTED WATCH WAS TELLING ME THAT WE LANDED AROUND 6:50 AM-ISH 10/23 EASTERN STANDARD TIME, WHICH WAS TECHNICALLY AROUND 7PM IN HONG KONG.

2013 10 22 MY TRIP TO HONG KONG WITH UNITED AIRLINES AND BEING ENTERTAINED

FINALLY! AFTER 2.5 HOURS ENJOYING MY DELICIOUS SMASHBURGER BURGER AT THE NEWARK AIRPORT, IT WAS TIME TO FACE THE 15 PLUS HOURS OF JAIL TIME ON THE PLANE. BUT NOT TO WORRY, I WAS ENTERTAINED.

THIS WAS THE PLANE THAT WAS STARING BACK AT ME WHILE WE WERE ABOUT TO BOARD.

GUESS I HAVEN'T BEEN FLYING LATELY. INSTEAD OF BOARDING BY ROWS THESE DAYS, THERE ARE LINES SORTED BY SECTIONS OR GROUP NUMBERS.
I FIND THIS TO BE A BETTER SYSTEM. WHY HAVE THEY NOT THOUGHT OF THIS EARLIER? BUT EVEN WITH THIS, I LOOK UP WHILE STANDING IN MY GROUP 3 AND SEE THAT STAFF IS HAVING A HARD TIME WITH THE ORGANIZED MESS. (SECRETLY LOL'ING INSIDE). #PALMTOFACE #OY

IT LOOKED A BIT DRIZZLY OUT THERE.

WITH 15 PLUS HOURS TO LOOK FORWARD TO, I HAD TO KEEP MYSELF OCCUPIED. BUT HOW CAN YOU HIT THE SNOOZE BUTTON WHEN THERE ARE PICTURES TO BE TAKEN, INTERRUPTIONS WITH THE FOOD SCHEDULE, AND WHILE ANTICIPATION IS BOILING !

GOOD TO HAVE GADGETS TO PLAY WITH.

THE SMART THING TO DO WOULD BE TO CATCH SOME Z's, WITH THE LACK OF REST FROM PREVIOUS NIGHTS (DUE TO LAST MINUTE PACKING). BUT INSTEAD.....

LETS PLAY WITH SHOOTING VIDEOS ON MY CAMERA!

BLOCKING THE MENTALITY OF DOING JAIL TIME ON THE PLANE RIDE, I JUST HAD TO KEEP MYSELF ENTERTAINED. FOUND SOME KPOP TO LISTEN TO. THANK GOODNESS EXO WAS AVAILABLE TO LISTEN TO. I THINK THIS WAS THE ONLY BOY BAND LISTED.

WOLF WAS THE FIRST ON THE LIST, IT WAS MY FAVORITE AND SO BAD ASS SOOTHING THAT I DECIDED TO BLAST IT FULL VOLUME AND STARE OUT THE WINDOW. AND OF COURSE IT IS PRODUCED BY ONE OF MY FAVORITE KPOP ENTERTAINMENT GROUP.

(SHARING THIS YOUTUBE MUSIC VIDEO ON HERE TO. SHARING THEIR VIDEO ON HERE TO SHOW HOW BAD ASS THIS SONG IS FOR ALL THE NON KPOP PEEPS).

OK, I'M OBSESSED, HERE IS THEIR LIVE ON STAGE WITH ENGLISH SUBTITLE VERSION. DANG, I FORGET THAT SM ENTERTAINMENT PRODUCES LARGE MEMBER GROUPS IN THEIR FAMILY!

WINE/BOOZE ARE PART OF YOUR DRINK OPTIONS DURING INTERNATIONAL FLIGHTS WITH UNITED AIR. IT WAS NOT THE CASE DURING MY 2008 TRIP TO CHINA WITH NORTHWEST AIRLINES. AFRAID TO BE BORED OR CAN'T FALL ASLEEP ON THE FLIGHT? I HAD A MIXED OJ AND WHITE WINE ALONG WITH SNACK.

I DID FALL ASLEEP, BUT WOKE UP AS SOON AS THE FIRST ROUND OF FLIGHT FOOD CAME AROUND (IN WHICH I'LL CONSOLIDATE ON ANOTHER POST).

AFTERWARDS, IT WAS TIME TO ROAM AROUND.
WHERE ELSE BUT IN THE BATHROOM!
