Before I knew it, I found myself trying to pack up and force all those cans of beer into my bag. I was going back to Sillypore. Time files when you enjoy what you are doing. Time flies when there's no one in town.

Did some last minute shopping in Eastern Iowa airport. Bought a couple of postcards (didn't managed to send them out because I didn't have time to find a post office) and a fridge magnet for Bb. It was a die-cast porker. There were alot of souvenirs with pictures of pigs or hogs. When I got home, I realised Cedar Rapids is know for raising pigs. I guess that was something good that I bought.

I started my 30-hour journey back home. Cedar Rapids-Denver-San Francisco-Seoul-Singapore. Nothing eventful happened except I got to watch a movie called "Failure To Launch" during the domestic flights (there was no video in-demand). It was really corny and wasted 2 hours of my life. The remaining excitement is we will arrive in Sillypore at 1am and will back at work at 1pm. It's quite ok actually.

Goodbye and see you again in the United States of America, the land for the brave, the land for the free!!

   
Reaching for an empty beer bottle in the fridge. A picture says a thousand words.

Do not litter. Keep America Beautiful.
My evening "office" in Mainstay Suites. It was actually quite cozy. I got a small kitchen with fridge and microwave.
Eastern Iowa Airport, transit, gate 5. Picture shows a spiral fixture in the ceiling. The airport generally serves 2 cities: Cedar Rapids and Iowa City.
Our trusted CRJ-70 flying at low attitude above Denver. Asked my boss about the greenish circles on the ground and she told me it may be one of those symbols shown in Mel Gibson's Signs.
Big Breakfast at Denver Airport. The scrambled eggs was delicious. It set me back by USD$3.70.
Southern Fried Chicken at San Francisco International Airport (USD$12.00). The salad was great. We didn't know that we were short of time so this gets to go through the x-ray machines together with my shoes.
Kim Chi fried rice in Economy Class. I wonder why the fried rice was so delicious that I finished every grain of it.
Enjoying the evening rays in Incheon. This area was relatively quiet as compared to the gates where the flights were bound for Germany. Why? Because the world cup is here and alot of South Koreans were all getting ready to fly to Germany in their red jerseys.

Korea! Be the reds! Korea! Be the reds!
In where else do they serve you food, tons of cold beer and endless amount of movies to watch without the need to do any work?

Did you say travelling was boring?
