PR 859, 747-400 flight to Cebu, taking off at 3 pm on November 29th, with views of rainsoaked Makati in the middle of the 6 hour siege of Peninsula hotel on Ayala Avenue...(oddly, at 3:20 in this vid, an Airbus 320 from Cebu Pacific lands...)
taking off from saigon airport, past the new international terminal, the old terminals, and the dragons back protectors for american aircraft during the war.
Deep fried tarantulas are a popular snack
in Cambodia...... and you can find them being sold from early evenings onward in cities and towns across the country.....
Tiger airways flight landing in Singapore, SQ 744 can be seen on take-off at the beginning; then a fly by past Changi over tropical clouds; then a turn over the South China Sea where container ships are moving about before landing.
on a typical street in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, a street stall sells a different kind of snack: deep fried tarantulas, cockroaches, locusts and crickets......
on a morning departure to kalibo, caught these roosters crowing to another batch of roosters in the check in area for Philippine Airlines domestic flights.
a 1:00 A.M. departure for MNL on 5J Airbus 319 - taking off past the new international terminal and making a left turn over district 1 with a 1/2 moon in the distance.
OK, so its not 'The Lover' and its not in Vietnam (yet), but this short clip is the rather atmospheric crossing of the Mekong River between Phnom Penh and Saigon on a rickety ferry......
Is it a flower? A jet engine? A fan? At Singapore Changi airport's recently opened Terminal 3, who knows: the thing spirals and rotates around in the check-in area.....never stopping......
ok, it's not a real white christmas, but as close as you can get in Vietnam: sliding down the steep 'white' sand dunes north of Mui Ne, here on Christmas Day 2006....
