屋漏偏逢连夜雨

从几内瓦到新泽西机场11个小时飞行中,经历了最少5次的乱流。虽然都不严重,但最近有法国航空的不幸新闻,所以机上很多人明显地在乱流来时显得异常安静。好不容易临近终点站,却又因为雨天的缘故在机场上空颠簸盘旋了将近20分钟。第一次出现晕机现象,忍啊忍。下了机后还是跑去洗手间吐了。

从新泽西到纽约34街一切顺利。可到了42街,整个世界天翻地覆。因故障42街7号车不开,我只好去坐NW车。因为有行李在身,我尽量选择做电梯,结果同一条长通道走了3次,因为工作人员临时因故取消站点。又在同一个电梯上下做了三次,全因标注不清;42街有这么多地铁,电梯里居然完全没有站号标记。兜兜转转,平常7,8分钟就可以完成的路程居然磨了40分钟。

衣服穿得多,行李重,人不舒服,地铁闷热,下午两三点的路上到处都是人,再加上整个纽约又下雨,我心头无名火烧得再旺也被整个湿粘粘的状况给浇熄了。

接下来回家的路上,我连自己会在路上跌倒,整个行李大散架的惨况都已经预想好了。不过事情毕竟会有否极泰来的时候。 接下来的行程,一切都还算顺利。

one thing good about London's subway is that there are signs everywhere clearly point to where you want to go...with less ads in the subway train and stations to confuse you. New York really has to catch up w/ that. even the current MTA subway map is a mess. ususally other cities use diagram map...i don't mind getting map in relation to the geography, but at least, it should be clear to say, visitors.

thank God u got home safe. next time why not try JFK, we took the A train and the shuttle train to the airport, very easy.

thanks, ll~~
i wanted to stick with JFK, but the airfare was much more expensive in for the flights in JFK and in Newark. so I chose to fly to newark. next time, i got to try really hard to find a fair fare in jfk. it's too much travel.
