Marathon trip home to Boston

Left Yogyakarta at 7:40 yesterday, and through 5 stop-overs & 37 hours, I arrived in Boston today at 10:00am. (Jogja-Jakarta-Singapore-Taipei-LA-Chicago-Boston)

How many ways can I say Singapore has the best airport I’ve ever been to in the world? 3 will do:
couches: loved the tv lounge, playing world cup, with couches that were actually comfortable.
free internet: they have the computer stands all set up,, and they’re all over the airport, not just by the tv-couch lounge
massage while you wait! Why not! $18 for ½ hour in one of those Brookestone ultimate massage chairs? It’s not like I’m not stuck on a lay-over.

Singapore is great. I wish more airports were like that. There are just as many ways to describe Singapore Airlines as the best flying experience too,,, but I only need one: the stewardesses.

Nothing drives home the point more than getting off Singapore airlines, then getting on a United flight.
