Jetlagged Thoughts from an Airport Lounge in Asia

They tell me it's 7:45 PM Monday here at Hong Kong Airport, but my computer and body clock both scream "It's 4:45 AM!! What are you doing awake?"

I had the most comfortable 13 hour flight* I have ever experienced aboard a big old 747 from San Francisco to Hong Kong. As we came into to a landing here we flew above central Hong Kong, dominated by it's compact downtown and the majestic adjacent mountain.

In a few hours me and my colleague will board a flight to Delhi and we'll leave the sleek modernism of Hong Kong's airport for the chaos of India.

I'm going to stay awake until I get on the next flight. Off to check my work email, to read the newspaper.



*- 13 hour flights can't really be comfortable
