When discussing with A. about my transfer at Manila airport between an international flight to a domestic, 1:40 hours does sound short, though. She quoted a sentence by a manager from her sister's company on a trip to Japan, obviously when they had similar issue. That is, 'run up if you can.' Funny, but I am not so sure: if and how my senior parents may run up fast, or, how crowded the airport there will be, or if the first flight is on time ?
Different from her, I prefer to prepare as well as detailedly beforehand, especially when traveling with others. Where to stay, how to transport, otherwise the lostness makes feeling so desperate on the way in a totally foreign country.
This last week I've been planning and preparing materials as follows:
visa to philippine,
transportation tickets, Hangzhou-Shenzhen by flight, Shenzhen-Hong Kong by bus, Hong kong-Manila-Cebu, Cebu-Tag by boat, Tag-Manila-Hong Kong by flight; Hong Kong- Penang by flight, Kuala lumper to Hangzhou by flight.
Hotel/hostel: Xintiandi hotel at Jianshazui district Hong Kong, appletree in Cebu, Golden palm resort at Alona beach, Old penang hotel at Penang.
admission tickets in Hong Kong.
My parents always wonder how fast this world has changed. Staying at home but preparing almost everything now. But, even though, virtual world is not a real world, or why should you go traveling?
