Firstly, please don’t SMS me here unless it is important. It costs me almost $2 per SMS sent and received.
Secondly, to clarify any emails I may have sent — I’m arriving either on the 3rd, or the 6th of September, with El-Al flight LY84, which lands at 23:20 at Terminal 3. I’ll let you all know here if I arrive on the earlier flight.
Arrived late last night into the hot, humid and polluted swamp that is Bangkok. I don’t dislike this city, but I very much hope I can get on the earlier flight to Israel (3rd of September) because I seriously don’t know how I’ll spend the time here until the 6th. Its too little time to go to the farther islands by plane and it is not quite the season either. Someone recommended Koh Samet to me but even that relatively close island is a almost day of traveling each way.
I have found a nice day tour to a tiger park where I hopefully will get to play with cub tigers ;p… I’ll book it today probably. If I become their lunch then they’ll get a heart attack.
Tonight I’ll go check out the Bangkok weekend nightlife, should be a riot. Hope I’ll find fellow travelers to hang out with.
I’m not even within a week’s radius of landing in Israel and already I’m pissed at Israelis again.
Why? Because while sitting at the airport waiting for my flight I hear that every time they page for late passengers there are always Israeli names included, always. Do you realize how small the percentage of passengers are Israeli? Yet they are the star of the show when it comes to rampant disregard to anyone aside of themselves.
Passengers Vardi, Shavit, Egoz, Ronen and co., please get your lazy asses out of the duty free store and onto the bloody plane on time!
Sitting here in Sydney’s airport, waiting for my flight to board in about an hour and a half. These days with Gabe were great, and I should definitely arrange to visit more.
Bangkok, here I come!
To be continued…
Just came back from a lovely night with Meg and Gabe, which started with an amazing meal at a restaurant called the Red Lantern and ended with me tying a game at the PokerDome, winning $85 having re-built my stack from 125 in chips to most of the chips on the table.
Truth be told I’ve had an amazing run of luck, but it was enjoyable. I was chip leader but agreed to split the total prize with the other person left on the table as it was getting late and I just wanted the game to end.
The funniest part is that with 125 chips when the blinds were at 600/300 I was ready to call it quits, but got convinced to stay by Gabe and two others which later in the game I took out (Gabe was out at that point). As Gabe said to me- as long as you’ve got a chip and a chair… :-)
Flying out in 14 hours… Can’t wait!
