Jet Lagged!

It is HOT. No, Humid is more like it. HUMID. H.U.M.I.D yeah, i think you get my point.

Besides being on the verge of being slowly steamed alive by the humidity, i made it to my family's New Year's dinner. Before i go more into that, let's backtrack:-

At the stroke of midnight, i entered Singapore's airspace and saw the fireworks go off over the Marina Bay. It was simply beautiful. While others were watching the fireworks from the ground up, i was watching it from the sky. I was too mesmerized to take pictures.

The whole time when i flew from dallas, the sky was light, up until the last 6 hours of my 30 hr flight. Got some nice pictures of clouds....yes, i was that bored and restless.


In Narita, this is what their MP3 players look like:--------------------------------------->

Got hungry. Northwest have great seats & drink selection, but their food needs a lot of improvements. Ate Ramen at Narita. nice but salty.


Here is my special New Year dish from the chef of Ikoi (BEST jap restaurant in SG), who is real buddies with my parents.. There were snails, anchovies & something else that tasted good but i cannot recognize what it is.


Ok, let's backtrack more...

At the eve of my departure, i had my last dim sum meal and my last fortune cookie as well. It was delicious! Funny thing is, that place opens til 3am for the chinese pple who want to have supper. Glad that i found it though. =)


At the back of my fortune, it was a learn chinese tutorial. It had the wrong pinyin to the wrong characters! Hah! Here's what it said:-


English: TASTE
Chinese : "Wei-Dao"...............but the chinese characters said "Kou Wei"

No wonder it is hard for the americans to learn chinese!

It snowed heavily when i was in Minneapolis. The plane had to be de-iced several times. When the back of the plane was done, the front started to ice up again. But i still made my arrival early in Narita!

Now, to end my blog, it is the perfect timing to go grab some nice fresh fruits to cool down. Mangoes, anyone? (^_^)
