The plane trip wasn't that bad actually. I logged in around six hours sleep total and arrived in HK at around 7:45am (their time). The plane had more than 30 movies, 70 "video games" (although not play-worthy), and 20+ tv series to choose between. They also had playable CD tracks and radio channels for music varying from cpop, jpop, and kpop. I ended up watching "The Invention of Lying", "Speed", "Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs" and some various other tv shows.
Now onto the flight meals (sorry, didn't take pics of it cuz I was too hungry and the though of taking a pic of my meal didn't come to my mind). Had the supper first:
- Red bliss potato salad with smoked salmon (this was quite good)
- Sweet and sour chicken with veggies and steamed jasmine rice (which I picked vs the other choices and it was quite decent; I love sweet and sour stuff)
- Apple cheese cake (I actually ate this too and it was decent; just didn't like the cheesy-ness of it)
-Coke (diggin the caffeine so I could stay awake to watch more movies)
Breakfast was:
-Fresh fruit
-Fruit yoghurt (did not want, did not eat)
-Warm croissant with ham and egg sandwich (ate but was "meh")
-Coffee (more caffeine so more movie time)
Yea, the person who was scheduled to sit in the middle of my row didn't show so the guy @ the other end and me just sat real comfy. Overall, it was a pleasant ride.
After getting picked up by my uncle, I just went over to his house and unpacked my stuff to get settled. Then we went out for dim sum (it wasn't super awesome but it was alright). Shrimp dumplings were a bit small and weren't oh em gee delicious. Mixed mushroom rice rolls only contained 2 diff kinds of mushroom vs the usual 3 back in BC (it was alright). Beef omasum sucked haha. Beef balls w/ beancurds were "meh". Uncle Albert seems to like it there though. Then he just showed me how to get around by foot, shuttle bus, and MTR from the home location. Didn't end up buying anything today (so far); it's only 3:22pm over here.
Edit: Slept from around 4pm till 8:30-ish. Then went out to a random place to eat. Ended up with this:
Veggies were decent. Sweet and sour pork sucked; worse than Cathay Pacific , hah! Then just went to a local Wellcome supermarket and copped some oranges as well as
Anyways, that's a wrap for today's rant. Hi Kevin, Mom and Dad : D
