On the ground at last..it was about a 15 hour flight.. but it passed quickly and peacefully . The funny thing is that the little interactive ‘how far till landing’ screen got stuck.. It kept telling me that we had 7 hours to go.. then they told me we were landing in 20 minutes. A nice surprise !. An even ‘better’ surprise was that this particular Delta flight didn’t have 110V AC plugs in econmy.. that meant that I couldn’t work the whole way.. instead I read, meditated, slept.. and watched a couple of movies.. ‘Midnight in Paris’ by Woody Allen (cute ) , 8 TED talks, a documentary on Kurt Cobain and .. I must confess.. Juno..which I have watched 5 times . This is one of my favorite movies for reasons I can’t quite explain. I watched it carefully to figure out why I like it so much.. and I think it’s because it’s the best portrayal of a parents unconditional love of their kid.. .. I also like all of the off-tune singing. <\/p>\n

I came out of my movie coma long enough to look outside and see the polar ice cap…. a view that is amazingly exciting in the most boring way imaginable. i watched for about 30 minutes without as much as an identifiable feature.. how cool\/uncool is that ? <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We landed about 7.. but i took me more than an hour to get to the hotel. This hotel is in Pudong part of Shanghai … bit too far away fro the river to walk at night.. I’ve opted to stay hear.. catch up on the work I missed during travel.. and get some much needed sleep.
\nfor that reason.. I don’t have much in the way of cool pictures to share.. .. Here’s the view from my room.. note the fancy multi color LED’s everywhere.. just like my headband. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Ahhh. one more thing.. I tested out the bed as I always do in a nice hotel <\/p>\n

ok.. that’s it for today.. more tomorrow..
