Airplane friends

Bangkok, Thailand
Wednesday, December 16, 2009

The highlight of today's trip from Ulaanbaatar to Bangkok was our 5-hour layover at Seoul's Incheon Airport. Certainly the airport's play areas were a big hit with A. But what totally captured A's attention was the "show" out on the tarmac. A kept up an almost constant narrative about the planes, the "mommy planes," the "daddy planes," the baggage trucks, and how she liked "tiny" airplanes and not big ones. And then, as they would taxi away, she would look at me with a frown and ask: "Where airplane go?" With all that free fun, it's not too surprising that we ended up dashing through the airport to catch our next flight.
