THE TRIP through Southeast Asia had gone smoothly enough in almost every way. The last days played themselves out in Bangkok. I visited, or even revisited a few places, using buses or taxis, to move through the city. Suvarnabhumi International Airport came and went and then the China Airlines flight to Taipei, with the hope of making my connection to Vancouver.
Much later, the Jumbo approached Vancouver. It had left Taipei some 12 hours ago, taking off into the night. We had followed twilight or darkness all across the Pacific. Raindrops appeared on the window as the descent in thick cloud began. Soon the waters of the Georgia Straight appeared. There were cabin announcements, an approaching runway and an extended bump on the tarmac.
Home again.
