I am supposed to continue my story about the last Chicago trip, but can’t help to write about this trip! Well, am in Beijing now, just had my morning meeting, lunched and in the hotel room.
Okay, why I can’t wait to write about this trip? Just want to complain only… The airport and ‘Boarder Control’ system was so lousy here. Though I’ve been here many times before, never been this bad.
My flight arrived at 6:30am. At 7:30am I was still queing at the ‘Boarder Control’. There was like no clear lines, and it was like a zoo. Two lines can converged into one, and one line can lead to no where, etc.
After I cleared the imigresen, I was stuck at the luggage claim. All the TVs do not display my flight. No info on my luggage.
I asked someone on the ground, he asked me to go to the baggage assistance counter. When I reached there, a lady staff just grumbled: “为什么每个人都来找我呢?”
And she just walked away, gong to the back of the counter. I chased after her coz I was in a hurry having to make it for the morning meeting. I asked her “小姐, 我那班机一个小时前到, 但电视上都没有它的 belt number…”
She continued to walk to the back as I was talking and said “你去隔壁呀!”
I was left there helpless, coz there is no one else at the counter, and I was clueless on what she meant by that. Finally got someone to help me and that was another 15 min gone. Luckily my car still waited for me.
When I reached the hotel, to my surprise, they can’t get a freezer for me, and they can’t fiind dry ice for me either. Now I have problems with my EBM. They’ve finally agreed to keep my 3 packs of milk in their so called ‘not cold freezer’ and to test out whether it works or not.
I am now in dilema whether to freeze (not sure work out or not) or to chill my ebm. If I chille, I only worry that it is difficult to transport so many of the small lam-bet-bet (soft) packs. Worry of leakage lah, etc. Aiyeh! Why so difficult one? And I have to come back again 2 or 3 weeks from now!!! Geram!
