I have finally arrived in Sibu at 10:10 am today. I couldn't take the Sunday flight out coz the fog grounded all of the incoming planes, which were routed to Sydney. After a 2 hour wait, the airport cancelled all remaining flights and put us up at the Rydges with dinner and breakfast vouchers and a cabcharge coupon (lets you get on a cab for free). The hotel is in corner Exhibition St. and Lt. Bourke Street. Right in the middle of the city...I would have thought they will put us up at the Hilton opposite the airport. Heh. Rydges is not a bad hotel nevertheless, I think its a layby hotel for cabin crew coz there are heaps of them walking around. I got a suite with a king sized bed all to myself. Not bad at all, although I would have preferred to fly out on Sunday. Well, there were two flights out of Melbourne on Monday, the 3 pm and the 11:50 pm. The MAS people said they will try their best to put us on one of those two flights. I didn't get to go on the 3pm coz I have a connecting flight that couldn't be made with the 3pm, so they assigned me to the 11:50 pm one. Oh well. I didn't do much though, just slept through the night and woke up at 9:30 am to line up at the MAS counter and grabbed some breakfast after that. I slept most of the afternoon as well. Heh. MAS paid for two nights at the hotel, but I had to check out at 9 pm to catch my flight back. The flight was overbooked so good thing I was there earlier. Anyway, I couldn't get the pics up coz I don't have image editing software at my home computer. Will pick up a warez CD of Photoshop on my way back later. Feeling tired now...nearly had an accident just now too. Those damn brakes need to be changed.
