Landed in Atlanta.

Finally! I've arrived at Atlanta, Georgia, where I'm doing a 2-week attachment as part of my professional development programme.

Having touched down only at about 2.30 pm, I haven't really done much yet. Good thing my mentor came to pick me up from the airport and I had dinner with his family.

The flight was long & arduous, especially the 2nd leg after my transit in Tokyo. Had a window seat so I only got out once. And Northwest doesn't have individual screens for each passenger for the long haul!

Going through the security at the airport was a little confusing. After clearing immigration, claiming my baggage from the flight, and going through customs, passengers need to re-check in the bag and take a train to go to the terminal to collect it back. The whole process took about 1.5 hours. My mentor told me that it was pretty good time already.

Ok, getting a little sleepy. Shall see if I can actually go through some readings which my mentor gave to me today.

It's off to classes tomorrow!

(p.s. Atlanta time is 12 hours behind Singapore)
