Red eye to Bangalore

After a very sad goodbye with my Peter, I started walking away from my life as I know it. As I turned and waved for the 10th time, the 11th time I waved I could no longer see him because there was a crowd of people walking between us.

By the 12th wave goodbye I saw the car drive away from the airport I waved again anyway even though he probably couldn't see me... I took a deep breath and dragged my luggage onward into the airport.

It was a nice flight especially since I coincidently met a friendly SAP specialist from HP named Arvid. He fly’s all over the world helping HP customers and he really seems to enjoy his work. When he overheard me saying to the flight attendant that I was going to Bangalore, he mentioned that he was flying there as well. It was pretty amazing that I ran into him. During the flight he answered all kinds of question about SAP for me.

When we had our stop over in Paris, since he has a gold frequent flyers card, he took me to the luxury business lounge with a stocked bar including breakfast foods, drinks and alcoholic drinks. I'm usually not a drinker in the morning, but I thought, why not be a bit decadent, this doesn't happen every day and had champagne with my croissant! Actually it was a 'mimosa' cocktail, mixed champagne with orange juice. Yes, I know I'm bad!

Normally I despise flying, unless I'm in business class because I have never figured out what they expect me to do with my legs and arms. I'm just too big for those little tiny airplane seats. However, the rest of the flight was actually enjoyable with the new monitors that are on the back of the airplane chairs. I watched several Bollywood films, some animation films and I was finally able to see 'Yes Man' with Jim Carrey. I thought it was a very good film.

I was enjoying my phantasia of films so much that I thought it was a pity when we arrived at midnight in Bangalore, India. I was just starting to watch my favourite Bollywood films 'Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi' staring Shahrukh Kahn when we started to land.
