I just dropped HK$40 for an hour of wireless access, however much that is in real money... ah, Internet access.

At touchdown, 05:35 local time, it was 24°C and clearly very humid, as the airplane windows fogged up as soon as we slowed down. I got a brutal tension headache as a result of an improvised neck pillow (just because the universe is a safer place if you bring a towel doesn't mean that it'll be helpful in any application).

There are many very tall, very thin skyscrapers just outside the airport. Behind them, there are many hills that remind me of the mountains surrounding Quito.

I'm waiting for the goddamned Starbucks to open at 07:00 (in about 15 minutes). No, wait, it looks like it's open, i see a woman with Starbucks. Caffeine, here i come!

OK, now that i'm properly caffeinated (and got shafted by Starbucks for about 1 HK$ for paying with US$, grr), i must point out that there are posters all over the place that feature Damon Jones. Of all the big names in the NBA, why Damon Jones, i wonder?

OK, time to board for Singapore. Later.
