Subject: Pics of Singapore airport

So here I am in Singapore. The pictures are as follows:
49 - Leaving the Arrival gate area to the transit lounge.
50 - My computer at the "free Internet access point". They offer free wired and wireless (802.11B) access throughout the airport. Very cool! This is new since I was last here four years ago.
51 - This is the "news" area. They have a bunch of little pod/theatre chairs watching two big HDTV screens. One with CNN one with MSNBC. They also have similar set-ups for sports programs and movie trailers (spelled trailOrs).
52 - This is the "phone" that I called Jane from. In addition to being a cheap phone (only US$1.75 for a 10 minute call) it also can be used to send Text phone messages (SMS), AOL, Yahoo, MS Instant messages, and can be used as a video phone.
53 - This is the Orchid garden (which is right next to the phone I used). They have at least three different gardens inside each terminal (they have two terminals).
So after 23 hours of straight travel, I could really use a shower.
Next stop Kuala Lumpur Malaysia (we leave here in about 2 hours for a 1 hour flight). Total travel time from L.A. to K.L. including layovers 26 hours.
