Joy and magic of flying

31 December 2012

After an early breakfast, I taxied out to Supadio International Airport. I had to wait briefly for check-in to open even though it was 90 minutes prior to the flight. We were delayed for about half hour.

The MASWings flight was very empty despite the zero-fare promotion which I was lucky enough to snatch. The joy and magic of flying is knowing that the 45 propeller minute flight replaces 9 hours on a bus!

I caught a taxi to town to see my family GP to check on my ear blockage. It had not cleared despite using the antiseptic oil drops from the pharmacy. As it turned out, there was no wax blockage or any obstruction to the outer ear. There was some irritation to the inner ear and some mucus and some non-antibiotic medication was given.

After grabbing a quick lunch and popping my medication, I crossed the Sarawak River by boat back to my apartment.
