This is it! I'm at the Kuala Lumpur airport waiting to board the first plane of the day. It's 4 hours to Hong Kong, a 3 hour layover, and then the 11 hour flight to LAX. I'm having the last bad cup of coffee and I'm looking forward to reading Harry Potter on the flight. I found a copy at the airport bookstore. Booksellers are still boycotting the book since the supermarkets refuse to stop discounting. The supermarkets have all run out, the pre-sales are all sold out, and people are getting desparate to buy this book. Seems like the boycott was a big mistake.
Dusseldorf - continued
The sun slowly gave way to clouds then rain. This is not a city for walking in the rain. Before it was time to shelter and stay dry, I did one last walk around the area. The business district and surrounding areas are clean and little graffiti or murals. Found this flamingo? near the old city. While the leaves probably congest the waterways, they do look cool floating on the water. Ornate door entrance. Soon after this was taken, the clouds and mist lowered and the top of tower stayed obscured for the rest of my stay. I decided to pass on paying to go to the top when there was no visibility. Back in my hotel room I saw this rainbow emerge right before the rain started pelting down.
