5 hours into the flight (as I write this, not when posted) daylight looks centered on the flight (I watched sunrise earlier from YYZ to EWR).
Breakfast and lunch in biz, though no entree choice for lunch!?
Flight 2 of 10… EWR -> HNL
Lie flat biz (UA BusinessFirst) seat using an upgrade, 11hrs…
Followed by just under 24hr layover, meeting a friend for dinner.
Low lying fog over lakes and rivers in New Jersey.
5 nights. 2 countries. 2 cities.10 flights.
On board flight 1 of 10…
PS those 2 cities aren’t in those 2 countries…
Guyana: map finally created
Finally wrassled the new Google Maps into something sort of like I want… Guyana map
Japan Rail Pass. Check.
Just bought my 7 day ordinary class Japan Rail Pass voucher. ¥29,110 charged as CA$313 (US$279 on my cc).
Surprisingly it’s not tied to a passport, just spelling of my name on the pass has to match my passport when I go to exchange the voucher for the actual pass once in Japan.
Guyana: money shot
Common bills and one not so common coin
Myanmar/Burma is a go!
Received my approved e-visa today ($50 online application, 5 days to get). No need to courier a passport. Sweet.
1 week in early December.
Just booked the SIN-RGN (Yangon) round trip flight too, on SQ (Singapore Airlines)
Guyanese resto in Toronto
I was dropping off an Aussie friend at a hostel on the Danforth (near Donlands subway station) last week and across the street I see thus Guyanese resto:
Copa biz meal
Not sure there was any protein in this veg meal I pre-ordered, but the ice cream sundae was tasty!
Panamá: on my way back
Interesting chat with a UN World Bank worker (light blue UN passport) from Alsace, who speaks 6 languages.
Was upgraded on each leg.. Just before boarding, the guy behind me (a Silver status) was asking if he got upgraded but alas, it was not robe for him.
Disappointing ground beef empanada like thing for lunch on the plane:
Ships outside Panama City:
You can just make out the highway over the water going good around Cacao Antiquo
Lots of skyscrapers
And a wide low tide line
