Well, so far my trip has been a disaster, and I'm stuck @ Bankok right at the moment, staying overnight at the airpot, too.

About a month ago I sent my Taiwan passport back to Taiwan, just so my mom could bring it to the travel agent and they can get us Russia visa all together.

So today I flew 11.5hrs, arrived Taipei Taiwan at 5AM local time, entered Taiwan immagration with my Canada passport. Then I went home for a shower, rested for a little bit. In the meantime I quickly re-packed my luggage, and thought "well I'll only need my Taiwan passport to enter Russia, I'm gonna leave my Canada passport home. Taking it all around with me is only risking any chance of losing it!" My mom agreed with me, took my Canada passport and put it into her drawer.

Around noon time I (with my mom this time) headed back to airpot to meet up with rest of the tour crew. We picked up our passport and plane tickets/boarding passes from our travelling guide for the next 10 days, then went off for lunch. About 40min. before the scheduled flight time, we started heading over to immagration, soon I realized.............

I don't have my Canada passport with me. And I can't go through Taiwanese immagration with my Taiwan passport since the last record on it was me leaving Taiwan. If there was no record of me entering Taiwan with that passport, I simply can't leave.....

We immediately called my dad, asked him to send my Canada passport over. But even with that I couldn't make that flight. So the original flight plan was Taipei Taiwan --> Singapore --> Moscow. Frankly, there just weren't any other flight from Taipei to Singapore would depart in time for me to catch the Singapore --> Moscow one.

Anyway, instead of leaving Taipei at 2pm and arriving Moscow at 8am next morning, I'm now being sent to Bankok at nearly midnight, and my flight to Moscow won't leave till 10AM tomorrow morning. I'm going to miss the first day of the tour. Not to mention all the extra costs of the plane tickets and the hotel fee at Bankok tonight.

And the flight (Taipei --> Bankok) itself was HORRIBLE. I was sitting in the very middle, and two passangers sitting on my both sides were totally pushing their elbow towards middle. The lady on my left hand side actually was LEANING on me for a long period of time when she was trying to watch the movie. I was wearing short sleeves....imagine having to have skin contact with a total stranger, in a not_so_comfortable seat, for 4 hrs. Never in my life I've strongly wished a plane would fly faster like that, every single minute on the plane felt like a year for me. ~>_<~

So here I am at Bankok airpot, exhausted, bored, typing/whining at the internet cafe.

Oh btw. what's even worse, is that, people in this airport are so unfriendly..... ~>_<~ People in the uniform wouldn't answer my questions at all, the the airport map totally sucked!
