Asia on a whim
« on: October 25, 2016, 03:04:27 PM »
I'm writing this from the lounge in TLV. I should be doing  more productive things like arranging a driver or accommodations. I literally booked this flight 3 hrs before heading to the airport on a whim. I have nothing at all planned. I was counting on the WiFi that KE apparently doesn't have to book a hotel for when I land.

This isn't much of a TR start nor is it intended to be but I'm hoping this will push me to actually finish a TR for once.

Like this better than these trip reports that start with 7 segments of their First option second option. Changes & more changes but never get to write what happened once they got out of the airport.

Then there will only be 1 page to read before seeing that it's not really a TR just travel details & options

Does this mean we should turn the thread into a choose your own adventure TR where we collectively fabricate the details?
