Arrived in Asia

I arrived today in southern Asia with five hundred others having spent three days and nights on a ship. The trip was fine and I brought some study material with me as well as my own coffee and French Press.

It seems like 50 % of the passengers brought their own form of entertainment. I saw dozens of personal laptops playing movies and games. Dozens of my fellow travelers also had PSP players or IPods. I used my IPod a lot but mostly to drown out the constant playing of movies on the ships dvd broadcast throughout the ship.

We arrived early in the afternoon but some didn't get into their rooms until midnight. Its amazing how so much time is lost on occasions like this. I'm fairly tired and look forward to a good night's sleep after three nights of sleeping on the floor.
