After 12 hour flight I touched down in KLIAt around 4:45 pm. I felt much better than last year ... the trick is I suppose not to look at the flight progress on the screen (I am pretty impatience especially when everytime I look at the screen it tells you I have 10 hours or so before my feet can touch the terra firma) ... and it didn't help when a women who sat next to me snored like a steam-train inside a long tunnel !!!
But it is nice to be home. It was drizzling when the aeroplane taxied into the terminal .. cloudy and the temperature probably hanging on 30. The clean shiny marble floor of KLIA greeted me .. I could almost make out my reflection on it when I walked to the transit train that will take me to the main terminal. The immigration was a doodle .. nifty stuff, just stick my passport on the special dock .. it scanned the chip embedded in my passport then wallah my face was printed on the screen telling me I am the person who I think I am ... old pic though I do look horrible !! but then again who cares.
Called my lis sis on her mobile .. she said she would be wee bit late with the traffic jam (Oh how I adore Malaysian drivers ... nooot), so I killed time doing people-watching ... not like Heathrow, people here seem to have plenty of time .. they walk slowly .. haggle slowly ... greeted each other slowly ... I think it is more due to the weather than habit ! .. well fast forward .. sis arrived, decided that we would not make it to home for break fast .. we reached agreement that we will break fast at one of the hotels nearby (Pan Pacific) ... 150 RM later ... we drove home and I was fully stuffed with food !!
