Flight to BKK

Highlights of my flight to Bangkok:

1. I met a guy with a great FML. He had a first class ticket to Bangkok leaving Sept. 17th. It turns out his passport expires in 2 months which he didn't know makes it illegal to leave the country unless your passport is good for 4 months minimum. The authorities made him miss his 1st class flight, get a new passport at 7:30am the following day, and gave him seat 60E, the last middle seat in coach. FML

2. Watching the Cambodian guy sitting next to devour and enjoy an enormous pepperoni pizza Hot Pocket. He kept looking at me with a big smile while pointing to his "molten lava" Hot Pocket.

3. Watching all the Asian's do "blood flow" exercises in the Anchorage layover. Then elderly caucasian couple came over and joined. This ended in both of them being seated and massaged by three people each.

4. All they had in the Anchorage gift shop was a duty free, Moose antlers, and a separate room full of various smoked salmons and salmon jerky's.

5. There were video camera's all around the outside of the plane and on each of the personal screens, you can shift through the cameras and see all the different views of what your flying over. This was especially cool during the take off and landing.

6. Meeting a man from Boston who just had a titanium plate put into the back of his head. I would say the plate was about 5in by 6in and left a gnarly scar. The doctors told him it would NEVER go off on any metal detectors... Sure enough, it goes off EVERY TIME!!!
