Today we started our epic journey to mainland China. It
would take a train, a bus, and a plane before we’d touch down on Chinese soil.
Ironically, we called into a pub in our regional Chinese quarter for breakfast
before the second leg of our journey to the airport. Then, once we’d
established our check-in counter, we sat at the end on closed check-in counters
eating M&S Christmas sandwiches. We met our guide when the counter opened
as well as some of our fellow travellers. Once we’d been screened, we settled
into the lounge and I decided to explore the viewing tower. It was a shame that
it and been vandalised and the sponsorship had been withdrawn. Planes were
landing every other minute but I had no idea where they were coming from. I
wondered if I’d be sharing the flight with a bunch of chickens in cages, but I
was disappointed to see that it was like any other airliner. Maybe there would
be an opportunity for that later.
