1st trip to Fairbanks on 28 june
I woke early and was using the loo when the phone rang and my friends said that Jean wanted me back to work. I was like, OH disappointed and continued to wash up. Then Shiwen was talking with the rest that maybe she wanted me back cuz she requested for an early day so she'll talk to Jean about it and let me go Fairbanks cuz i habern been there yet and she went alrdy. In the end, shiwen talked with Jean and she agreed to let me have my trip to fairbanks while Shiwen had a full day.
so we had breakfast - for me, pancakes. then at 8am, Ditty, our trailer supervisor, drove us to Fairbanks using HUgh's car. Yuxuan slept on the way to fairbanks while Ditty and i listened to the Ipod on Hugh's car. I took a few pics of the sceneries and it was a beautiful day, sunny and with clear skies. We reached North Pole abt 11+am and took a look around Santa Clauz House. We also took a pic with the MR & Mrs Santa Clauz. After which, we went to the Regal Stadium cinema and checked out the movietiming. There was 12.25pm LIVE FREE OR DIE HARD movie that we all wanted to watch so we decided to catch the movie 1st before going to lunch and buying supplies. Yuxuan and i shared a hotdog combo US$8.50 and took toilet brk before gg to see the movie.
The screen is much larger and the theatre quite big too. However the seats are not very comfy like cathay ones. The movie was quite good - great actions and special effects! lolx after movie, it was abt 3pm, we went to get the supplies needed by the hotel and then when Ditty said he needed to go bank, i suggested that he let us off at Fredmeyer to shop for groceries. He gave us 45 mins to shop and went to his bank. We spent quitabt 1 hr in the supermart, buying alot of stuffs. Cookies, eggs, yoghurts etc. I also bought sushi and snacks for lunch, costing me US$10.40.
Then we met up with Ditty and rushed to Regal Stadium again to catch another movie. We caught PIRATES OF CARRIBEAN 3 while he watched SPIDERMAN 3 cuz he had watched Pirates alrdy. Our show was juz startin - 5.20pm while Ditty's show started at 6.30pm. so when our show ended at 8pm, we decided to crash another movie. We went to the restroom 1st before entering the Nancy Drew show at 7.45pm de. we watched from midway to end it wasn't very occupied so it wasn't hard for us to find a seat. Besides this show is shorter and i estimated that it'd end ard the same time as Spiderman 3. I was right and we met up with Ditty in the carpark.
We then went in search of dinner. He wanted to have Thai dinner at Sweet Basil but it was closed. so was the few other restaurants we tried. We finally came to a restuarant that was still opened at 10pm - THE AVIATOR STEAKHOUSE. I had prawns main course with salad, bread and veggies. The food was very tasty and delicious! However both of us didn't have enough money to pay for our shares but wellz Ditty was very kind to not ask from us.
By the time, we finished dinner and was on the way home, it was 11+pm. And we reached our trailer abt 3am. I slept on the way back but it wasn't the most comfortable sleep i had. I quickly kept the perishables in the fridge and took a quick bath before going to bed. It was a fun but tiring day! And the enxt day, i still had 8-3pm work.
LET ME FLY AWAY FROM HERE
- 9:01 PM
