Home sweet home

After 16 days of traveling, I am finally back home. I am happy even though tomorrow, I will once again go back to the same old routine. Read newspapers, answer emails, talk with my boss, chatter with friends, eat my packed lunch, brave the bus ride, breathe the polluted air and listen to the noise of Manila. There is comfort in our routine.

I will post pictures during the week (here's to having a fast internet connection!!!). But just now, I savor the fact that I am typing on my bulky laptop while seated on my bed, listening to familiar music, eating rice and savoring the quiet of the night. 

Again just for me, I totally did not get any sleep during the flight home. Watched four movies (Get Smart, Hulk, Fool's Gold and Phantom of the Opera). I was awake for more than 24 hours!

I just so love KLM and the individual tvs, the roving stewardess who bring water or juice throughout the night, the available chocolates for those who are hungry, for hot noodles in the middle of the night, for filling meals (yeah, airport meals might not be the French cuisine but still, they taste good), for middle aisle seats near the lavatories, for the warm wool blanket and pillow, for the adjustable headrest. They should pay me for giving them a good review! 

I thank God for the protection He gave me while traversing six cities in three countries.
