MuSiNgS oF a Maverick

Well I went to the airport to catch a flight to bombay in the early morning. I checked in my stuff and like a typical vooru guy I requested the person for a "window seat". Lucky for me through out the journey I always had "window seat". Then I boarded the jet airways plane to Bombay. I slept in the plane and airhostess used to disturb me for meals and drink etc and finally to get down. Well thts the fun, she would very politely request me to wake and the sound was no way near to my ear. Then finally during the landing ..because of a jerk I got up. Surprised to reach Bombay so fast. I got down from the plane and reached the baggage collection counter. Always I had a feeling that i am going to loose my luggage.

After reaching Bombay I waited about 1 hr for the bus to take me to the international airport. I quickly got down and searched for the singapore airlines flight and reached a counter for the immigration check. I have gone to an empty counter and stood there .... then suddenly I realised that I was in the wrong queue and seen a very big queue 2 counters away. I asked them and realised that It was the same flight i am supposed to get in. I stood at the end of the 2km long line. Long later I could get this completed and moved to customs. That was done and I reached the boarding lounge.

Then I got into the flight and sat in my window seat. The singapore air hostesses are the best I should say. There was one lady Priyanka who is really beautful. Whenever she used to come around I would request for a glass of apple juice. Here in the plane there is access to about 96 movies. I have seen 2 movies "X men3 and Nacho Libre" by the time I landed in Singapore. Singapore airport is one of worlds biggest airports. For a typical person like me, I did not understand what I should be doing now. I dont know if I have to collect my luggage or not. The time for the my connecting flight to Adelaide is about 3 hrs. I went around and finally was able to spot some airport officials, talked with them, found out that I need not collect my baggage here. I felt little easier and went into shopping malls in the airport. The airport was really awesome. I walked till my legs started aching. Then I went to the gate for the process to begin. Here I met a Danish guy also going to Adelaide. He was reading the Kane and Able book. I just asked him if he was going to Adelaide. Thats it, tht is the only sentence I spoke and that fellow never gave me a chance to speak again. He is such a chatter box, I felt Baba is better at times. i anxiously waited for the announcement and barged in to escape from him. But the fate is that he is in my next seat. I had to bear him for the rest of the journey........

Here I should mention one grt thing happened to me. In the middle of the night, airhostess (Priyanka) gave me a packet. It has something like socks in it. After reaching Adelaide I put on these new socks. i came in the evening and seen the contents of the packet. It was written gloves in the contents. Suddenly I realised tht gloves are the socks that I am wearing. Earlier I got a doubt that these socks are very short but convinced logically that singaporeans are short, hence are the socks......sry gloves :))

In the sep18th2006 moring I reached adelaide
