15:40 PM Changi Airport Terminal 3<\/strong><\/p>\n

We were all prepared for our second overseas course in Shanghai. We headed for the check-in counter right after the birthday lunch with JZ.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

JR couldn’t wait to check in….<\/p>\n

JR’s present to himself.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Wearing the iPod nano on his wrist.<\/p>\n

There was a slight delay in the flight as there was a missing passenger.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Once again, there was a delay but this time was due to the fog and the unavailability of runway for landing.<\/p>\n

23:20 PM Shanghai Pudong International Airport<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Here at last!<\/p>\n

We took a cab to the hotel as it was too late to take the Maglev train, the world’s first commerical magnetic levitation line.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The air was really foggy… There was nothing to see on the way from the airport to our hotel.<\/p>\n

Our room came with 2 super single beds instead of a King sized bed that we had requested. We were told to wait to Monday before they could provide a change of room for us.<\/p>\n

It was almost 2 AM when I finally get into bed… Good night!<\/p>\n
