It got me really worried about the blocked ears from the changes in air pressure during takeoff and landing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(2) Then I almost missed my flight for the SFO &#8211; PHX route which I blogged about it <a href=\"https:\/\/violinstar.net\/?p=35330\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(3) Next is when I forgot to check what time the departmental store is closing and almost couldn&#8217;t get to the pick up point for my hotel shuttle bus. I blogged about that in <a href=\"https:\/\/violinstar.net\/?p=35300\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(4) My transit flight for DTW &#8211; LGA is like 10 mins after I am expected to land in DTW airport from PHX. Again, I blogged about it in <a href=\"https:\/\/violinstar.net\/?p=35331\">here<\/a>. Luckily it turned out to be okay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(5) Then there was an epic deplaning incident for my flight DTW &#8211; LGA which I blogged about it in <a href=\"https:\/\/violinstar.net\/?p=35368\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(6) As usual, I had a bit of nose bleed when I was in Scottsdale. Happened on the day 4 or 5. Then it nose bleed more in New York. New York winter is no joke. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(7) My hands became red from the cold exposure within the first day. I went to Uniqlo at Hudson Yards to get the cashmere gloves. However, it might be a bit too late but applying the Kiehls Ultra Facial Cream on my hands help to control redness from getting worse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(8) I was the last to board the JFK &#8211; SFO flight which I blogged in <a href=\"https:\/\/violinstar.net\/?p=35369\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(9) I had to give up my Popcorners and Sulwhasoo skin care bottles due to luggage weight limit and space constraints.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I had so much epic-ness in this trip which I think I should blog about before I forget.
