Spain trip day one

Tuesday 22 november 2005 3:29 s’pore time

8.29 amsterdam time

Well here I am at it again. Blogging from Amsterdam airport. Supposed to transit at Amsterdam then go Barcelona from there. And this can b considered an experience la. First time blogging out of s’pore. Anyways this lousy KLM airlines (their dutch national airlines) delayed back then at s’pore for 45 mins coz the fuel or something missing or what. Then now ar, our klm transit flight to Barcelona at 630 cancelled “due to technical difficulties”. We have to sit the next flight at 12. which means we’re stuck here for a solid 6 hrs… :( Everybody very pel chek coz, now everything as in all the sightseeing stuff have to shift forward. And the day one tour have to rush guo qu. Lousy airlines…cheat my feelings and my money. But oh well, shan’t let this kind of depressing feelings spoil the trip. At least we got that time to look see around their airport, which is supposed to b the ex-number one airport in the world. Quite ok la.. saw some of the souvenir shops got some nice stuff. The traditional blue-white glazed porcelain which r made into pots, cheese holders, vases, candle sticks and ever thing else useful under the sun r quite nice, though they r priced on the high side. Plan to buy them when we come back here again for transit to s’pore at the end of our trip.

The flight here was a solid 12 hrs. so sit and sit until car tia. Ah yo get up already really feel like uncle. And quite squeezy. Although I was very tired, had trouble sleeping during that night flight becoz this stupid ang moh behind me also find his place very cramp and keep on fidgeting and kicking my chair. Almost want to box him. Then get up then see him whoa so big size wif all the dua liap muskle then changed my mind and pretend stand up to go toilet instead. And the young ang moh man sitting next to me quite helpful when want to embark that time so kind to help us take our luggage from the upstairs compartments. And during the whole trip only sleep a short while then the rest of the trip read this thick textbook. Dong noe what subject. Written in dutch and like very boring. Got no pictures.
Then I had a dream,…dreamt that I was woken up during the by somebody’s sms. Then realized that ker xin sms me, say she wish me have a safe journey and enjoy my trip. And my first reaction was whoa.. even she also read my blog…ah ya then after that woke up to real life then realized it was only a dream. Reach airport cheack handphone..ya it was really dream. Nobody sms me. What a strange dream.

So now at the airport eating lunch. Ya still having trouble getting to used to their time zone. And I hope the rest of the trip won’t have anymore of these nonsense or worse still (choy choy choy) go to the tourist site there then realied cannot go due to bad weather…

Feeling abit disappointed now.
