Russia travelogue - day 0: the plane ride

June 15 10:34 pm
We have a take off. After 2 hour delay, we are up in the air. Shaks and me in our matching Argentina jacket, settling down in our seats. For last 3 hours i have been frantically downloading music, graphic novels, tv shows like it's water and i have been dying of thirst. I would have continued as well if it wasn't for the fact that i can't get any signal anymore. Some day I'm going to be comfortable with silence but today is not that day. Alright enough psuedo philosophy, I intend to record my daily travels so let's get back to that.
The day was sort of crazy as working days just before a big vacation tend to be.Shaks was out for 5 hours getting her hair colored! She just made it back in time to finish packing before we absolutely had to start for the airport. Lesson number 1on this trip: do not get a hair appointment on the day of travel. Her hair looks sweet though with light green shades mixing with browns and cascading down in curls from half way through. Every stand caressed by a meticulous stylist who kidnaps her clients for hours before they can resurface into the world reborn from a catalogue. Lesson number 2 then, do get a hair appointment before a trip if you're into that.
Now we are aloft in the middle of sky, and all i can think of is to get dinner and then catch some sleep. so tidbits that to throw at you, listening to blond by Frank ocean. reading saga comic series. Lugging my better half's heavier duffel, looking forward to the colored minarets of st Petersburg.
Dusvidaniya maybe?
