So, I left Boston last night and arrived in Dublin very early this morning. I had a 10-hour layover before my connecting flight to Frankfurt, so I took a coach into the city and did some sightseeing.

Only to find that my connecting flight was two hours late. I finally got to Frankfurt at about 21.00 (at this point, I had been awake for about 36 hours - I couldn't sleep on the plane), only to find that my backpack was missing. I repor...

Hi All, I plan on making entries into the journal from the travel journals that we wrote on our trip. This hopefully will keep the entries fresh and spontaneous (although technically late entries hehehe).

To see the photos larger (and good quality), click on the view all button in the trip photo album above. Day 1 is the easy entry. Travel day. The only comments I can muster about travel day are.....the flight is too long, the seats are too small, team VT gets real tired (code ...

As we had chosen an Emirates flight, we had a 10-hour stopover at Dubai. It would be highly impossible for us to join a city or desert tour given the short stopover, hence we decided to explore the city on our own. We reached Dubai International Airport early in the morning (4am)but the sun was already rising as if it is 7am back in Singapore! Dubai Airport is huge and we had quite a DIFFICULT time finding the exit to the city centre. This is because there are practically NO signboards in the airport premises. The customer service officer advised us to get around in taxis and not buses as buse...
