In transit

I am in Taoyuan airport right now. Once again I am blogging from the airport lounge. My next flight will take me to Frisco - that's San Francisco for you, my dear =)
That's the big flight but I don't think I can get my eyes to shut, dat's just me.

Time now is 9:37PM and I have had a nice shower, eaten some noodles (again!!) and dim sum dimmies in the lounge. Now just kinda chillin checking emails (argghhh!) and starting to worry about the amount of work to be done when I get back to opis after the long weekend. Sien nia just thinking about the pile of work waiting.

This trip has been tiring so far. I don't know why but one things for sure, I know I am not too old for this just yet... still many places to go visit and explore.

Mongolian BBQ

One of the nicest meal I had in Taipei was the Mongolian BBQ. You select from the many variety of meats they have like beef, chicken, lamb, pork and venison and lots of vegetables like lettuce, carrots and bean sprouts then add the various sauces they have for taste. Pass it to the chef and he'll cook it in a big wok for ya.

Here's how they cook it... Mongolian style... yum!

Airport lounge

The last and final destination I am heading to next week is back to the Silicon Valley. I am back home for the weekend and then off I fly again to the United States.

I've been travelling alot the last few weeks and spending alot of time in airport lounges...
CX

Here's a typical business lounge in Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport... it's Cathay Pacific's
CX Lounge
You get free drinks from tea to local beers and liquor and from pastries to noodles... and they are all free cause you've already paid for them in your ticket... duh! You get free broadband and in some lounges, you can have a shower as well. It's good have a place to hang, relax check emails, work and freshen up when in transit especially when you are on long haul flights.

Here's one of the noodles they serve at The Pier lounge in HK airport.

Tokyo, Japan

Like in Taipei, lemme show you first the view from my room and the toilet I drop my deuce.

View from Grand Prince Hotel Room, Akasaka
View of part of Tokyo from The Grand Prince Hotel, Akasaka. Akasaka is located near the government center.

Okay, now moving along... here's the toilet. Everything in the toilet is very compact and small. The sink, the toilet bowl, the bath tub, small small small.
The Toilet
Okay, ladies and gentlemen, this is the...uhmm... toilet. The first thing I did after checking into the room was to head straight into the washroom. Drop my pants and did my job. Travelling to Tokyo took all day. About 14 hours door-to-door from house to hotel room. One day wasted just getting there.

Bestest toilet ever
I dropped a big one and oh boy... you just gotta lurveeee their toilet.

Now that I am back in Penang, I kinda miss my toilet in Japan =(
