Philippines 2009 Day 9

Everything went smoothly in the morning - woke up early, got our luggage ready and left for the airport way too early. Saw the customs officer who made the first "So you like popcorn?" remark yesterday, but this time, he just grinned at my three innocent tubs of popcorn. Now I was irked.

Slug's brother, who had the Dept of Foreign Affairs pass, was able to escort us all the way to the flight gate. He was so kind to buy us some sandwiches to eat on board should we get hungry. I must say, his hospitality is unparalleled!

As if my popcorn had not been harrassed enough in the Philippines, back in Singapore, I had another customs officer asking me "So you like sweet things?" WTF! What the hell is wrong with buying popcorn!

Till our next trip again.
