‡R@Stupid Me!!


----------@What have I done!?!?@---------

I transferred to Hong Kong at Addis Ababa airport
without any problems. But, I made a very very big mistake!!

I had an aisle seat on the left, and next to me was a young Chinese guy.
He often looked behind and talked with a young Chinese lady
sitting at the seat 2 rows behind him. I guessed they were a couple.

When I also looked behind at her, I saw an empty aisle seat next to her
(2 rows behind me). I thought if I had changed my seat with hers,
I could have an extra space to relax. And they would be able to sit together
and thank me. Everything would go well!! So I offered her my seat
and moved to the empty aisle seat next to hers.

BUT!! A big Japanese guy came back from the washroom,
then said to me, "I think you are in my seat!!" Oh, No!! Really??

The aisle seat next to her wasn't empty.....SHOOT!!

So I moved to her seat in the middle. On top of that, a big black African man

like Bob Sap was at the window seat... I was totally stuck in the middle.....
The African guy could speak Japanese a little, and said to me,
"Hey! You are a Japanese?? Yoroshikune!!" in Japanese, smiling at me.
But I was crying inside......My flight to Hong Kong was a hell...
Horrible...!!! Awful...!!! I felt suffocated......

Bob Sap invaded my space!! His right arm was pushed out,
and he strtched his right leg into my space too! So every time,
I kicked his foot and he pulled it back to his space. But he kept coming back
so I kept kicking him back... we were battling for the space....

The big Japanese guy looked like a tour conductor. He had kept the light on
during the night to write and read something. On top of that, he was very restless
and moved his body around, so he shouldered and elbowed me... What the hell!!
So I pushed him back. Then he put his body back to his place, but after a while,
he started again. So I had to fight with him too. I got 2 enemies on both sides. Hmmm....

Bob Sap and the Japanese guy were the passengers
everyone hates to sit with. After all, I ended up putting myself
in this stupid seating situation and made myself even more tired...
Please laugh at stupid me!!

----------@Gave myself a pat on the back!@---------

After got to Hong Kong, I fled out of he plane. And then,
I transferred to KIX with ANA. It takes about 5 hours to Tokyo
from Hong Kong, but just 3 hours to Osaka with a direct flight.
These two hours makes a world of difference because
I was very very exhausted from Mt.Killimanjaro
and the buttles with Bob Sap and the big Japanese guy.

So... I had many many troubles during the trip but I managed to finish it safely.
If I have opportunities, I'd like to try other mountains all over the world.
