02 weeks trip to Manchester, Narita, Incheon, Macau, Guangzhou
|
|
We were once again previledged to be the carrier to one of the famous football club on their Asia tour 2007.
At Manchester, I was staying at one of the hotel in the airport together with the rest of team members. My colleague, Sue was there too, and this was her last trip with Charter flight as she is leaving for a better position at IT Dept eff 1Aug07.
Upon arrival Narita, we were staying at Holiday Inn Tobu for two nights. It was my first trip to Japan and everything was seems very very expensive. However, the people is ammazing and it seems like I love the way their greeting and respect each other. Not able to join Arman and Shazlin to Tokyo as I was stucked meeting the agent at the airport. :-(
I was lone ranger at Incheon as the rest of the team members were flying back to Kuala Lumpur after sending the paxs at the airport. Lucky, Bob managed to come one day after my arrival and brought the food stuff, as everything that I brought earlier was finished so fast at Narita (lapar daaaa...). We were managed to go to the mosque at Inaewon, eating the middle east food (30,000KWN.. around RM120.00.. mahal beb...). Bob had to do his shopping alone on the second day as I was so busy carrying my job at the airport. Three days in Korea and I had to move to Macau, and Bob back to Kuala Lumpur.
In Macau, I was staying at the hotel in the airport area. Same as Narita and Incheon, Macau is also my first time visit. Compared to Manchester, Narita and Incheon (everyday raining), Macau temperature was so high... > to 35C. Casino everywhere, and I almost give up hanging around at Macau city. It was so lucky that I met Saniah, an Indonesian girl working at Macau, together with her friend, Anis. Watch out our picture together and I really thanks them for their hospitality of accompanying me at this foreign place. We went to the mosque, red market for small shopping etc. We also met one couple from Johor Baharu (Pakcik Rahman & wife) spending their holiday at Macau.
I was supposed to come back to base after handling the paxs at Macau. However, the office wants me to continue my journey to Guangzhou, their last destination for this trip. Bought my new phone at Hangjin Market with Azman, our engineer based in CAN airport. A night before, we had a dinner at one of the muslim restaurant accompany by our Canton managers, Mr. Jamaran, Danny and my colleague Joe.
Once again, we went to Manchester to send the paxs back before flying home to Kuala Lumpur. With these two weeks journey, I'm not only meeting many new friends, but also gave me confidence of handling the operations duty at stations, alone!!! 8-)
