The flight in

The flight in went very smoothly. A lot gave to do with the 737-800 that I took. The leg room on the plane was smaller than the usual 737 but the overhead compartments for storage appeared much bigger. Suffice to say that the plane was designed for short hop such as KUL-Singapore sector where one tended to take carry-ons onto the cabin. The passengers also tended to be the business type which prefer everything simple.

We landed in the rain and as usual, I was expecting a bumpy descent. It was cloudy, so I couldn't see much of the approach, but before long, I saw the famous Marina Bay Sands appearing on my window. An overcast day, so I couldn't really see much. The next thing I knew, we were already on the ground. In the future, I will definitely go for the 737-800 should I need to fly a short hop.

Immigrations and luggage pick-up was a breeze and by the time I landed, the driver was already waiting for me to me to Shangri-La which I will be staying at for the next three nights.

Good Morning

One of the thing I love about being on leave would be that I was able to take the boys to school. That was what I exactly did this morning since my flight will be at noon. This was followed by a quick breakfast with Anita.

Irfan had a school trip today. Not far. Just a quick hop on the school bus to Zoo Negara about 2 km away. He was going on about it all week, and hopefully he would not be caught up in the school holiday crowd.

All set. I was in my minivan in the way to KL Sentral when I wrote this, and as usual I will be taking the ERL.

All packed

Shirts. Checked. Tickets. Checked. Passport. Checked. Laptop. Checked. Camera. Charged. I'm all set for tomorrow. Managed to get some Singapore Dollars exchanged earlier in KLCC as well.

I planned to have breakfast with Anita after sending the boys to school. I will have to be at KL Sentral by 10, likely checking in from there before taking the ERL as I often do. I should reach Singapore by 1, which leave me plenty of time to check in and read the documents before the meeting at 5. Now, shall I sleep or should I watch some movies?...

A Quick Date

Since coming back to Malaysia, we have always made it a habit to go out on the evening prior to me traveling abroad. It would be too far this time. I'll only be heading to Singapore, but when I return, I will need to be in Ipoh for Monday and Tuesday. So a quick stop at home before driving up North.

We had dinner at The Apartments, before going for a quick shopping around Isetan. My flight will be at noon, after which I have meetings starting from 5pm. Will blog from the hotel lobby's free WiFi.
