Hong Kong To Tao Yuan...Cathay Pacific 747-400

Postby Triple_7 » Thu Aug 30, 2007 1:36 am

At last I have made it...took awhile thanks to Typhoon Sepat.  My original plan was to make it to Taiwan before August 18th and make an anniversary flight in memory of that wonderful trip one year ago.  But as I mentioned the whole typhoon deal kinda ruined that idea :'(  So now I sit in...... :-X

Don't know what it is with me and Asia but I always seem to pick gloomy mornings for my flights.  Lifting off from Hong Kong for the short hop to Taiwan as Cathay 450.

Above some of the haze and getting a good view of the airport.

Wings like rubber bands as we climb through the clouds.  Heavy turbulence expected for the next 10,000 feet.
Image
A little over an hour later we begin our decent as that beautiful island appears in the distance.

Tao Yuan weather wasn't much better...spotter shot as we make our way to the gate.

Parking brake set and ready to get out and enjoy a couple days in Chung Li.  Won't stay long as there are many other places I have to get to.

So far this trip about...18 countries and 4 US states....many many more to go.

Cool set. Really like #2, 3 and 4, and the foggy ones... which makes all of 'em! ;)
Think I'll have to follow this tour. Keep 'em coming!
