Boarding the Cathy Pacific (CP) flight in LAX we walked through the luxurious pads in business class to join the huddled masses in the rear of the plane. But the seats in this 15 hour flight are comfortable with adequate leg room. Also one can have ramen noodles any time during the flight! I am a fan of CP.

My 15 hours were spent sleeping, listening to some music, reading the autobiography of Booker T Washington (I recommend it highly), standing and flexing some muscles, eating the offered meals plus ramen noodles, and composing this blog entry on our iPad. I also drew from memory a sketch of the Hong Kong skyline as seen from our soon-to-be room in Kowloon at the YMCA hotel where we will stay. If the sketch, composed of course using the iPad/brushes app, works out I will post it on the blog.
