Sleepless in Singapore

Things I learned today:

1. LAX is dreary and dull.

2. If you're flying the largest passenger plane in the world, you need three separate boarding tunnel-bridge-things to load everyone in a timely manner onto two separate floors. And all 400 passengers do not appreciate starting this process half an hour late.

3. Considering how huge they are Airbus A380s have incredibly smooth landings.

4. I am champion at sleeping on planes. Yeah! Life skills for the win.

5. Singapore's Changi Airport is AWESOME! I'm sitting next to a Koi pond right now. There is also a free movie theater, a cactus garden, a butterfly enclosure and apparently a rooftop pool.

Unfortunately, the price of earning all these useful things is that it's now 5 am on thursday morning, and I completely missed July 4th. Oops. Hope you all hade a great holiday!
