Back in SG (thank goodness)
by wantunn on Jul.28, 2004, under Ramblings
Finally made it back to SG from KR. Lessons learnt this trip:
- Don’t take the redeye flight and start the tour the next morning after touchdown if you’re not the type to sleep on planes.
- Don’t take a rush-rush 5 day (well, actually just 4) 3 night tour that makes you wake up at 6am (thats 5 am SG time) everyday
- Don’t bring your 80-200/F2.8 when you’re going on an extended sightseeing tour. Especially if you’re using a sling bag rather then a backpack
- Bring a compact camera. It’s no fun going shopping with your wife and carrying a few kilos of equipment and walking around for a few hours.
- No 3 is especially relevant if you’re taking a 30 minute climb (one way) into some god forsaken ^%#&%*@ tunnel dug by north koreans to invade the south.
- Don’t take the 5pm flight and touch down 11pm in SG
- Especially take note not to arrange to start work the next day! Hopefully the large double shot expresso from McCafe works it’s magic.
- P.S. Don’t take a haunted hotel room (according to wife) if you can help it
Bitching aside I’ll upload some of the photo’s later when I’m more awake.
