Well, I am at least in the right continent today. Landed at Kuala Lumpur at 7am to the news that it was really 5am!! Not a coffee shop in sight-not an open one anyway!! So I took a stroll through the airport jungle enclosure and did some power walking to get rid of the swelling in my legs.
After a few really strong cups of coffee I logged on to the airport’s free wi-fi account and sent some emails off to family and friends-just in case someone is worried about a 52 yr old woman travelling alone to rural Cambodia!
Had my first cultural misunderstanding-the ladies on the PA at KL international airport only speak
Malaysian (funny that!) and I hopped on a train to the international terminal in KL but had no idea where to get off. Thankfully a thoughtful young lady turned to me and sent me on the right path to the plane to Siem Reap, complete with boarding pass. Amazing the effect a smile has when you can’t understand a word someone is saying.
Looks like my plane to Siem Reap is boarding now so I will sign off.Am a little scared, excited and thrilled all at once! Talk to you again in Cambodia.
Hey, good to see you’re still chirpy after all that flying, let us know that you’ve landed safetly x
