Last night I arrived in Newark, took a cab to Hoboken, and then met up with Tien and Jeannette in Koreatown in Manhattan. BonChon specializes in Korean fried chicken.

When did they start handing out coupons in-flight? Got this on my way to Newark.

For the record, I’d rather just wait for my bags, thanks.

Some sights from the Newark and Chicago airports in the past few days. I love the last photo because there is so much going on. The dinosaur.. I wonder what the woman in red is laughing about.. the police officer lounging back in his booth.. the little girl with her little girl suitcase. . The airport is so best for people watching.
