Drove to KLIA instead of taking the ERL from the Central. It will cost us less to park the car at the airport. The whole of next week I won't be seeing dear hubby. He will be away in Singapore, attending a course and some sort of certification. We planned to spend the weekend there together.
Our flight was postponed to 4.55 p.m. While waiting, hubby managed to nap a while. He looked tired. We stayed in Rendezvous Hotel in Bras Basah. Quite a nice cozy hotel and a walking distance to the mosque and Shopping Malls. At night, walked along Orchard Road and had nasi briani and Mee goreng at the Mamak Restaurant. Although we were tired, we slept very late, talking while holding each other close, making full use of the little time we have together...

It was noon when we hauled ourselves out of bed. We had a good sleep last night. Had lunch at a nearby Mamak stall and alighted the hop-on bus to Suntex City. Bought us tickets for the Wacky Duck Tour. Later, walked to the Esplanade to watch the fireworks. Although it was only for a few minutes, the fireworks show was beutiful. Should have brought the camera but, we managed to snap some pictures with the phone. They are having fireworks again next week and the week after. Singapore is celebrating its 39th years of independence. Happy Birthday Singapore!

Fire drills and goodbyes

The commotion outside the hotel room woke us up very early in the morning. There was a fire drill in the hotel this morning. The corridor was crowded with firemen with smoke masks and water hoses. Hotel staff running here and there and everywhere. We saw the red civil defense trucks and vans blocking the hotel entrance and exits. They were quite serious with the drill. Had a quick breakfast. The cab came at 8.00 a.m. and we kissed goodbye.
Will be seeing dear hubby on Monday next week. The flight back was on schedule. Feeling sad and lonely…
