EVA Airways Flight BR15

My flight from LAX to Taipei was very cute. EVA is a Taiwanese airline with a lime green theme. The slippers, cups, utensils, and even the dessert were lime green (it was quite tasty - some kind of pistachio cake). The flight attendants were adorable and spoke excellent English.

While waiting to board, it looked like I was the only American on this entire flight. Oh wait, no, an obnoxious group of middle-aged surfer dudes just showed up. Swell. Guess where they ended up sitting on the plane? All around me. But they seemed to have some powerful drugs that shut them up pretty quickly. One of them got in trouble for sleeping on the floor. They were headed to Bali.  I was actually next to an Australian girl who had been traveling in the states. She really loved Utah and prayed before eating.

For dinner (at 3am), I had shrimp fried rice with a delicious ice-cold Kirin. For breakfast I got "porridge", which was topped with pork, eggs, and green onions. Not too bad actually. There were some odd pickled fruits and some red stringy stuff. Also a pouch of "Fish Floss" which I guess was a topping for the porridge, but not anything I was inclined to eat.

For entertainment, I watched half of a bad French movie ("Polisse") and an episode of Hawaii Five-O. Why? I don't know.

 Ok now I need to learn some Vietnamese on my Kindle.

My fav is definitely the "Speed Puff Jet".
