Leaving Tokyo

I woke up at about 4:15 AM for some reason right before the alarm goes off, and I had to turn it off. I get myself ready and then checking out from the hotel and get the taxi to the airport. I had given the taxi driver to take me to the International terminal in Haneda, and then he was asking me whether we take toll way or not, I though it was early so we don’t have to do that. Then I double check my ticket, I saw it was terminal 1, so just before he turn to International I asked him to go to terminal 1. The guy is quite polite and turn off the meter and basically the journey from International to terminal 1 is free, but I still end up paying over Y7000 for the trip. Then we notice that there is no Singapore Airline counter there, so I had to ask, and they told me I had to go to International terminal, damn.

How is this possible? I just checked at it said one, according to them it is “I” for International, so shit I had to catch the free shuttle to International terminal, I will probably be late, because only when the third shuttle came is for leaving for International terminal. So I quickly rush to the counter, and check my self in, and the customer service told me the plane is delayed due to late arrival. Hmm ok, so I am not late after all. I still had chance to hang in the lounge and grab one more souvenir for Ipo.

I spend the whole time watching all the movies. Then before it landed the pilot announced that Singapore weather is raining, so the plan had to circle a few time, it took the plane 1hr before starting to land. Then quickly hit the shower and grab some lunch, and then call Ipo, it turned out that she is at home and will be going out later. So I catch MRT and then take a taxi, the taxi ride only cost $4.80.

After the short meeting, Ipo’s daughter came to take her out, so she drop me off at the MRT station and now I am sitting back in the SIA Lounge.
