The first day to Guilin was horrible. First thing in the morning, woke up at 530am... Left home at 6am.. Reach airport at 630am.... Flight was 820am.... Singapore Airlines to Guangzhou Airport.. but the flight was delayed to depart at 850am as the aircraft break down... they towed away the aeroplane... and brought a replacement plane in... =X
Left Singapore at 9am... Reached Guangzhou at about 1pm.... Ate lunch.... Walked around the airport...
Damn .. In China.... Everything is about $$$ .... The airport has boogie cars all over the airport... for a 5 mins ride.... RMB30 (SIN$6.20) per trip to get you around the airport... Ridiculous.. so ex lah....
And they are selling fruits all over the airport... OMG.. Like wet market... Lucky never sell pork...
Transit at Guangzhou Baiyun Airport... on Transit for China Southern Airlines for Guilin Domestic Airport at 530pm.. Stayed in the airport for 4.5 hrs.. Boarded the plane... only to have the flight delayed by 2 hours due to heavy rain.. after we boarded the plane... which is like... WTH... 1 hr flight.. supposed to depart at 530pm.. departed at 730pm instead..
Stranded on the plane itself... Cos the boarding gates have already closed and the plane exits all locked up... Trapped inside the plane for 2 hours... and doing nothing.... HORRIBLE... Zzz.... =X .... A 1 hr flight turned out to be a 3 hr nightmare for us... Zzz... The plane.. originally only to give us biscuits and a packet of mineral water.. ended up serving us dinner on the plane...
Reached Guilin at about 830pm..... Reached hotel after 40 mins ride to Guilin City from Guilin airport... SLEEP... 1st day ends like this...
So practically... the whole day.. from 530am to 930pm (16 hours) is spent on travelling...
