We got to the airport at around 10 in the morning, for a 2pm flight to Singapore, that got use in at about 8pm local time (so an 8 hour flight to get here).
The plane ride was full of misadventures, but we all eventually arrived safe and well in Singapore. What I noticed is that while I’ve been here before (around the age of 12, I believe), being a little older makes me appreciate new things, but also harks me back to my younger travelling years. When I was younger, there was a playground at Changi airport, which had a very distinctive dinosaur in it. As soon as I stepped off the plane, I was reminded of that very playground, just by the décor of Changi Airport. As soon as I stepped out of the hotel,I smelt a smell that again reminded me of my younger years, while still becoming fresh and new because I am now a little older and wiser to enjoy it.
Here’s a shot of homely old Brisbane Airport, and a shot of Changi Airport…aren’t they both really nice places to be?
After we’d checked in, we went out for dinner. As I’d eaten on the plane, I felt that a lighter meal was the place to be. After stopping in at the local 7/11 (Are we at home still?) I bought a bottle of water and a packet of crisps.
Wait….isn’t that Snoopy? It is, it’s Snoopy Chips, surely the most peanutty chips ever!
Tomorrow is our first (and only) day of rehersals. I’m a little worried as how the 80% humidity will affect the way things sound, but that will all be shown tomorrow!
Much Humid Love,
Jamie
