Ramadan Dailies: #2

(The following was written during the journey)

I am typing this in a notepad while everyone is snoring away amongst the clouds. Yes, my second Ramadan day was spent in air!

To avoid jet lag- I am holding my sleep for a decent one back home. Spending my flight hours in reading some research papers (Dr.C will be proud), watched one movie and will spend the rest of the flight reading Quraan.

I only had 3 hrs of rest yesterday due to my excitement! The ride to the airport went well and so was checking in, UNTIL we decided to wait a bit and be the last passengers.

Well I guess that wasn't a wise decision. We arrived at the checking point and was greeted by a screaming pilot which called his lungs out saying " I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR YOU - ALL OVER THE PLACE".

He then had anyone that passed the check point "RUN" to the airplane. Seriously run. Anytime I would turn my face back to find any family member he'd scream "NO DONT STOP RUN". This was rather hilarious.

Alright that is it for now, 2 more hours until I land safe and sound. Will upload airport pictures in my next post (after landing and after rest!).
