Back from Bangalore…
Last week I had a last minute urgent trip to Bangalore. This is a tough trip, generally a red-eye there and a red-eye back. Not sure why the Indian government makes it so hard for international flights to get in and out of India. I arrived in Bangalore late Tuesday night and left on the red-eye Thursday night. This is the Thai flight that lands in Bangkok at about 4 AM the morning after leaving Bangalore. At this time nothing in the airport is open and people have to wait at least an hour before little coffee shops open at 5 AM and two hours until everything else opens at 6 AM. My flight left Bangkok a few hours later and just before leaving I snapped this pic. The Thai plane is the one I was about to board. The Sri Lankan plane was waiting to taxi out to the runway. In the distance one can see the image of a plane just as it has lifted off the end of the runway. Considering how much I travel this is a familiar scene for me.
Since being back in Hong Kong I have been battling the GI infection circulating through our home but I am now getting back on course.
