Being the first time either of us have flown with Cathay Pacific, we had alot to look forward to. The cabin was not the most roomy or comfortable but at least we had some in-flight entertainment to keep us occupied and take our minds off that. We were both pleasantly surprised to find what was on offer; over 100 movies (new releases and the classics), 70 music channels, hundreds of albums and off course tons of really bad Asian game shows!!
Now lets be honest no adventure involving the two of us goes without incident. And this time was no exception. Both of us were enjoying some inflight movies, when Ingrid decided that after watching a movie she would like to play a video game. A particular game (which at this stage we can only recall as the "dinosaur game") intrigued Ingrid and she went through all the prompts to play it and with one swift press of the enter button.............SHE BROKE IT! Worst part of it all was that we were only 3 hours in of a 13 hour flight! Oh Dear! At the end we eventually started to appreciate silent movies again, as well as Emlyn giving running commentary on "There's something about Mary". Good times all round.
As it was a long flight we thought we might get some much needed sleep on the plane.....YEAH RIGHT!!! Emlyn had not slept the night before and it near impossible to find a comfortable position to sleep in. Ingrid was having the very same problem, although she was fortunate enough to have Emlyn as a footstool. Not a pleasant experience at all.
Finally in this leg of the journey, we must commend Hong Kong for its clean, efficient and beautufully designed airport.
