Hi!

I'm shortly heading to airport. My flight is sooooo loooooong. First I have to wait in Amsterdam 5 hours and after that some 14hours in a plane..maybe there is one more stop in Bangkok too, I'm not sure.

Me, Sampsa, Giorgioprimo and Dimas will arrive to Taipei 18.15. I hope we can make it to the welcome dinner in Taipei 101.

i hate landing in wet weather
but wet, windy and wild will bring out a Hindu, Buddhist, Muslim, Christian, Jew and Martian(why the hell not hehe) out of me while landing :D

I flew out of HK during a Typhoon this spring. One thing I love about flying in the east is that they still fly through the crap. In America our flight would have been delayed for days. there they just keep on flying. Great pilots.

This is sad news. When I was there the level 8 only lasted about 6 hours. Hopefully it will be the same for everyone trying to get to Taipei
