The people living in the normal world have a huge problem with anyone attempting to sleep beyond 11am. Being able to sleep to this hour is so strange, so inconceivable to them, that they simply won’t tolerate it.
Despite calling the hotel desk the night before and telling them I won’t need a wake up all until 2pm (and double checking that this was cool) the hotel manages to have two phone calls and three knocks on the door previous to the 2pm call. When the call finally arrives I call down to the desk to inform them I’ll be checking out around 2:30pm. They seem less than pleased.
We grab lunch at the club then Kyle and Su give us a ride over to the airport. Our first flight is only 45 minutes long over to LA, but after that it’s a five hour wait in LAX until our next flight. I plug the computer in at a bar and play video games for the duration until Celina and I grab some food at the food court.
The flight to Macau is on a large two story jet where Celina and I have a three seat row to ourselves. For the first couple of hours I continue my video games on the computer then watch ‘21’ on the screen in front of me. The film version is like taking the Hollywoodesque retarded liberties that the book took with the story then injecting them with steroids and adding Kevin Spacey in the mix in a desperate attempt to regain sensibility.
After I finish the movie I lean back in the chair and do my best to fall asleep. My flights lately have been much more peaceful, no German girls balling their eyes out or self urination worthy turbulence. However, the constant pressurized cabins leave me with vicious headaches that take a solid day to wear off.
When we arrive in Taipei it’s another three hour wait until our 90 minute flight to Macau, which I immediately pass out on. I wake up a few minutes before our landing in Macau and peer out the window to see the gargantuan Venetian hotel below us. I really enjoy Macau, but I’d be lying if I said I didn’t want to see Melbourne below me instead.
