Back in Shanghai

I have to say, the flight was quiet uneventful. The Biz class was full; good thing w/ the SuperElite that allowed me to lock in an upgrade right away. I must be flying this route too many times; saw two of the flight attendants that were flying the Shanghai route. One actually remembered me! Go figure. Movie selection was still terrible. LOL. But the power plug-in allowed me to work for long period of time, 1/2 of the journey. That was good!

I never experience that quick out of the airport - from landing to sitting in the Buick going home! The two longest parts were the taxing after we landed and the Buick ride home. The taxing, we had to go around to the front of the terminal so that felt like forever going around - 15 minutes. Then the ride back to the apartment; with rush hour traffic and the now #1 corner by the Bund being tore down, it took a good an hour and half. We bypassed quite a bit of Expressway on the way to town. But still took 90 minutes; not bad though for peak rush hour traffic.

Temperature was warm and sunny compared to two weeks ago. Seems Spring is coming - finally!

Lots of traveling from now till mid-April. I have been told.... I will probably flying to Macau tomorrow (Sunday eve) so I can hit the road running my errands in Macau and HK. Most likely cancel my trip to Beijing for next Thursday and Friday; but will fly to Haiku on Friday eve with Audrey's bike and all for her Triathlon training; then back to Shanghai for a week; the following weekend will be in New Delhi for 7 or 8 days, then Singapore, then back to Shanghai for a day to turn around to Haiku for the Triathlon; that should get us thru to mid-April; then I might have to head back down to Macau and HK. By that time, it will be May!!!
