Arriving in Bangkok



Orchids and Birds of Paradise all over the airport!
 After a 27 hour flight, we arrived in Bangkok! It was 2 am in Bangkok time, but because of the 12 hour time difference, it took us until 4 am to get some rest. Jet lag was definitely kicking in, so we took a dip in the rooftop pool and hit the hay! I took a few pictures of the hotel room and airport, but more on Bangkok to come!
Our hotel room in the Sukhumvit District of Bangkok



Our balcony

A little kitchenette-- but who needs to do dishes?! Not me!! :)

Flying: Japan!

Flying over Northern Japan






About to turn the plane and land in Tokyo!


Flying: Alaska and Russia

Over Alaska, soon to be over Russia. 6 hours and 20 minutes
 until we reach Japan, then another 7 hours until Thailand!

Alaska :)

Russia, outside air temperature...-62!!!

Too cold for me!! I sure wish I was headed to the tropics...Oh wait...I AM!!!:)

It might not look so appealing from the highway, but from here its air art!


Our Asian Vegetarian meal with United Airlines, not bad!
Curried peas and lentils with rice, salad, yogurt and lemon cookie

A cool perspective of fog!

After this shot it was a complete white-out, then--Alaska!


Good Morning Chicago

We landed together with 2 other planes in Chicago! Click here to see video
The basment of the Chicago airport is SWEET. It has a constant-motion
 light up ceiling and a walking escalator that talks to you :P


A imitation Brachiosaurus in the airport!?
 
A few more hours and then we're off to Japan
  
Passing the time with omelette tacos and beers for breakfast!


Chicago-brewed beer, Goose Island's Honker's Ale,
a flavourful bitter hopsy kinda beer

Little boxes on the hill side,
Little boxes made of ticky tacky

Getting comfy-its going to be a long day!
