Losing
nine hours during the flight deposited me in Dubai around 9:30PM Saturday night. I was a little taken aback by the lack of
instructions/signage informing where exactly to go, but eventually stood in the
appropriate line and shared an engaging chat with a guy from Britain who was overnighting
in Dubai en route to South Korea + the Philippines. He was on a flight from Heathrow and it took
us awhile to figure that out (since we started by acknowledging we had both
arrived from ‘London’)…no
drinks on his flight --- you couldn’t even purchase one!
But
Mark retrieved me and we had a grand night catching up.
