Day 7: Two's company!

Im back in Singapore now. After my last Hyatt breakfast buffet and a dip in the pool I said goodbye to Sabah. Of course today was the nicest day, weather wise, with not a cloud in the sky. Oh well.

Air Asia is a good budget choice but there business practices are a little sketchy from what Ive seen. I have taken 4 flights with them now and 3 out of the 4 were delayed. (not including all the delayed signs I saw on the flight status board) I gave myself lots of time this time to transfer (3 hours) and with the delays I was still cutting it close and when I asked for help they said they would work something out wiht my baggage and when I did what they told me they hadn't followed through on their end. I realize they are a budget airline and it's by having a fewer services that they can offer cheaper flights, but next time I think I will pay a little more for a higher standard of care. Maybe it's just the season though. It is a busy one!

Well my day was mostly filled with travelling so no real news. Except that I when I signed on to my msn about 20 minutes ago I had a little chat with Steve (an American ALT from Iwaki who left this past summer) and he told Paul (another ex Iwaki ALT who actually lives in Singapore) I was here so now I'm making plans to get togteher with Paul tomorrow. Its kind of fun that I'm meeting him on his home turf! I'll let you know how it goes!
