delayed flight. our supposed 1525H departure was moved to 1700H. so we were stuck in the terminal with nothing to do. we were bored in the boarding area! and add to that our pestering stomachs. we were already hungry but cringed from buying over-priced food in the terminal.
i dont know what happened but our flight was combined with the next. so the result – a jam-packed piece of cylindrical metal! sardinas for short. all seats were occupied. even the seat plan was not followed! everyone was scrambling. and did i mention we were on a plane and not on a bus?
we landed in mactan around 1745H. and the welcome band marched in. the streamers were hailed. and the confetti dropped. ok, ok! sorry for the exaggeration. actually it was just tomas who was there to fetch us up.
come dinner time, I had steak at mooon cafe. and gelatissimo's chocolate truffle ice cream for dessert. then we chilled at starbucks.
