executive summary: still waiting at singapore aairport
After cancelling our flight, we waited for 6 hours at the counter while they sorted out what they were going to do.
the girl behind the counter was getting upset as she was getting flak from the customers but no info from china eastern!
at 4pm we finally got rescheduled for a midnight flight and they bussed us to a hotel back in town. At 4:45 we fell into bed for a nap. Between 4:45 and 7pm we had 7!!!! Phone calls from the hotel desk before we gave up the idea of sleeping and went down for dinner (Thereby missing our 8pm wake up call). Dinner wasn't too bad.
now we are back at the airport. Not sure what we are going to do when we arrive at shanghai airport at 4am!
For now, we just wait (and hope the ipad battery holds up)
