Okay, so we were supposed to leave last night at 8:45pm... maybe an hour and a half before the flight, we heard thru the PA, that our flight was delayed due to unfavorable weather conditions in Manila. Okay, I went online and checked the weather, indeed it was raining there...
For a little more while, the next announcement was the flight will be delayed for 2 hours... It was also announced that passengers may get their snack (a bottle of water and some biscuits), so okay cool. We at least got something to eat for the 2 hours of delay. But lo and behold.. another announcement, OUR FLIGHT WILL BE DELAYED FOR 9 HOURS!!! What the freak! 9 hours? They gave us food, at around midnight, McDonalds fried chicken was served and maybe that was around 3am, they gave us, Jollibee burger streak, always with a bottle of water...
Someone said, "akala nyo madadala nyo kami sa Jollibee at McDo!" Hahaha... That was funny to me...
And where do we sleep? In the airport where else... but, but, but.... the seats are metal (coooolllddd) and separate seats (its not one big bench)... this is going to be one uncomfortable night...
And indeed it was, almost zero sleep and my body hurt all over. My hubby and I were already semi-fighting with our heads hot from the delay, patience were all but nil, so we were butting heads, it's a good thing he has a cooler head (LOL)
But well, all's well that ends well, I guess. At around 5am, the call was made for us to line up for boarding (finally!!!) and around 530, we were on our way!
We got home at around 8am, after a little chitchat with the peeps at home, we went to sleep and slept the whole day! I was shocked to see that it was already 6m and we hadn't anything to eat yet, so we cooked some and had our fill, now after this.. back to some much needed sleep and tomorrow's another day
