how the journey begin
it was saturday, 14 of july. the flight was SQ 967 flying to singapore. there was no problem. plane landed at changi airport on schedule. it was 22.50 singapore time.
on the sign board written :
SQ 672 Nagoya 01.05 RE-TIMED 05.00
the announcer said because of taifu, flight will be delayed until 05.00 a.m. there was a transit hotel in 3rd floor. but because of the flight to tokyo also delayed, the hotel was full occupied.
sigh...
some of the japanese youngsters were playing cards. but most of the passengers were lying on chair or on the floor. sleeping. but i couldn't close my eyes. it was 01.30 a.m.
at 05.00 all of the passengers were ready for boarding, but then there was another announcement. boarding delayed (again) for 1 hour.
all screamed "heeeee...." (you know.. with the- japanese-tone).
finally, at 6 in the morning we got in the plane and took of to nagoya. i could not close my eyes even until we arrived at chubu centrair international airport six and half hours later.
it was a long tiring day.
abang irwan (who has been stayed in japan for a month) and his colleague was picking me up at the airport. we went to toyota city by car. it took approximately one hour until we arrived at the apartment in mikawa-toyota.
yes, it was a long tiring day. but i was excited to start living a new life in japan!
