Home Sweet Home

Tracy and I went to Bethel Centre to attend Sunday worship. There was a problem with the notebook connecting to the OHP and therefore worship started a bit later than 9.30a.m.

After worship, we stayed back to have some refreshments. We could not stay on for bible study since Tracy had to fetch me to KL Sentral to check in for my flight and to go to KLIA from there.

When it was my turn to buy the KLIA Express ticket to go from KL City Air Terminal (KL CAT) in KL Sentral to KKIA, the Indian lady asked me the time of my flight. When I told her, she told me that I had to go straight to the airport after I checked in my baggages because I was running late.

When I was queuing up to check in at KL CAT, there were about ten people queuing up in front of me. There were three check in counters available but one person at one of the counters only managed to serve the same person in the duration I was queuing up. When it was my turn to check in, the gentleman told me that my 2.15p.m. flight had been delayed to 3.05p.m. I was relieved to hear that. At least I had more time to get to KKIA and I could walk around when I arrived. I told the gentleman I wanted an aisle seat.

He gave me the following bookmark.

After I had passed the turnstile in order to go down to board the KLIA Express, I heard someone calling my name. Tracy had parked her car and came in to chit-chat with me. Since my flight had been delayed, I could chat with her for a while. Thank you once again Tracy for your hospitality and the belated birthday gift.

The train had already arrived at the platform when I went downstairs. A Malay lady came and sat next to me as there were a lot of people on the train. As the train was departing from the platform, an announcement came through the PA system saying that the train would not be an express one (ie. KLIA Transit) since there was construction work being done on some of the tracks and therefore the train would stop at Bandar Tasik Selatan, Putrajaya & Cyberjaya and Salak Tinggi Stations. The duration would prolong to 35 mins instead of the usual 28 mins.

I arrived at KLIA at 1.40p.m. I thanked God my flight was delayed. Otherwise I would have to run to the departure lounge for the 2.15p.m. flight. Instead, I managed to take some shots around the airport.

After passing through Immigration, I still had 50 mins to spare before flight departure. I was hungry and saw Burger King.

I ordered The Whopper.

Whenever I could, I usually take out the crunchy dill pickles because I do not like the taste.

After finishing the burger, I walked slowly to the departure lounge. The gate where my flight was departing from was A7.

We only boarded the plane at 3.00p.m. The seats were so colourful.

I sat next to an European couple. I greeted them but did not receive any response from them. Three of us sitting on the same row were reading our own book even before departure.

I was glad the air-conditioner was on full blast until some passengers had to request for blankets. The air stewards also provided them with pillows.

The air steward who was serving the meal told us we had a choice of fried rice with either chicken or beef satays. I chose the latter. The food tasted great, better than the chicken meal I had on the flight from KK to KL.

I do not drink coffee and not much tea and therefore I had this OJ.

The plane arrived in KKIA at 5.45p.m. The baggages were taking their sweet time to appear in front of us.

Thank you CTY for fetching me at KKIA and for dinner at Kepayan.
