A scene from Lost

If you are not a Lost fan, this won't mean much to you. On the way to Beijing, I had a surreal experience. On Lost there is a period of time where Sawyer is locked in a zoo cage with Kate across from him. He spends a lot of time trying to hit the right sequence of buttons to get his fish biscuit. It is a tremendous feeling of accomplishment when it finally comes out.


I had the same sort of experience at the airport with the vending machine. With a couple of hours to kill I decided to check out what was available. I'm sure it was quite fun for the locals watching the caucasian attempt to earn his fish biscuit! The good news is you can get beer from the machine. Unfortunately I didn't seem to get the right sequence.
