Life in India Day 1

Day 1 - 17th & 18th June 2009 (leaving HK + arriving Mumbai)

Thanks Hover and Terry to farewell me at the airport~ and thx the "gift" -_- you gave to me -_- hahaha!! the flight took off at 18:05... and we were at airport at 11:00~ had long chat and fun time!!!

HK->Mumbai

my seat number is 11A (why special!?) because i have to learn how to open the "emergency slide"..hahah!!!

AIR INDIA was not a comfortable flight...and children were running around...and no one would stop them >_<...didn't sleep well during the flight >_<..as i didn't sleep the night beforehead...I was so tired....

We arrived at Mumbai Airport at 00:XX, the next flight was at 05:50 so we have plenty of time to hea……When passing through the gates, customs, the signs were not clear enough, little bit confusing…. But, the staff were friendly, one of them told me to take the free shuttle bus for checking in of the next flight, and reminded e not to pay to anyone! One of them guided me to take the lauggage, and also guided me to fill the declaration form of swine flu. ^_^ people there were really helpful!

Waiting for the next flight -> Baroda....

I met Vincent - an Indian man who has worked in China and HK for 14 years. During the waiting of the flight (he was going the Ahmedabad in Gujarat), we chat a lot, he gave me his name card and I can now get discount from his Indian restaurant at LKF :P haha! also he gave me his contact in case i need help :P

At around 05:50, we got on to the flight - Jetairways...it was really good!!!!!! Touch screen personal TV, with songs, games (bejewled!!- I played once and now the highest record is my name!! HAHA), movie, cartoons (simpsons). Nice food and drinks, and gave bottled water to passengers. The level of jetairways is much much higher than Air India!!!!!!!!!!! 40mins flight was not enough!!!!!!!!!! :P:P

~1 hr...we arrived Baroda...the city I am going to stay for 2 months.....
