So, I had 21 hours of flight time, less 1.5hours of transit and Frankfurt. The feeling is quite new as this is the first time im travelling for so long and far. Usually when i travel by air, there would be someone to talk and chat with and the time would somehow pass faster. However this time round, its a different story totally. Im all alone and the worse thing is that i forgot to put music into my phone! And when i wanted to play minion rush to burn time, it needed additional download in order to play. Which means, my phone was totally useless for the first 12hours of the flight till when i got to Frankfurt, where i got to use free wifi and able to use dropbox to transfer some of my songs and to download the additional file to get to play minion rush.
So from Frankfurt to NY its another 8hours. This time round, although with entertainement, it seems like the time pass slower as i didnt manage to catch some rest as much as the first 12 hours. Nonetheless, the whole journey was quite a pleasant experience.
For day one, went to oriented myself with my aunt's place, went swimming, sauna, Times Square, and Red Lobster.
