2/2 - Midnight in Changai

Well, here we are in Singapore's international airport: 12:30am local time (3:30am Canberra time).

We have a wait of a couple of hours before our flight to India. We're both feeling quite tired and a sense of dislocation - all these glitzy stores (perfume, duty free, etc. but also an intertainmjent areas that has free XBox360 play, the soccer on TV - Liverpool vs. Chelsea, and free internet) and wide spaces are not something I feel like dealing with at 3am (bodyclock time), nor do they match my expectation ofr what we'll be confronted by when we leave the airport at Delhi.

The flight here was chiefly uneventful. A very full plane with us right in the back row. There was a bit of a "cattle-rush" by the passengers at boarding time, which I found surprising. We'll see how this next leg is.

Well, my brain is too slow to find something interesting to write. Maria is sitting there watching ER! (a show she's never watched - but it has a comfie lounge chair in front), so I might go and grab here and maybe we'll find a quiet part of the airpport to kip temporarily.
