HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!

Where Am I?

People say that travelling is glamorous and fun. To me, I think of super long flight, recycled air, horrible airline food, small seats with no leg space, jetlag, etc… Yes people, I am back in Penang and staying put in the country for the next one month!

I have been gone for almost four months from Penang, the minute I got back to Penang last 3 weeks was to unpack and pack for our Europe trip, and my “stopover” in Penang was 6 days before jetting off to Rome, Prague and UK. At first I thought to myself… gosh it will be fun!! Boy was I wrong, fun on ground – YES. Fun up on the plane- NO! I wish I could just beam myself to any location in the world!

SUMMARY:

When we reached Rome or Roma (what the Italians call the city) I was hit by the amount of tourist and how expensive the city was!! Not only that, it was soooo dirty! Ciggie butts everywhere and the city sticks of pee pee! But then again…the city was so old and ancient and beautiful.

After 4 days in Roma, we flew to the city of Prague in Czech Republic. One word! AMAZING!!! London was dusty and rainy (nothing to shout about) until we drove to the City of Bath (which we celebrated our 2nd Wedding Anniversary) and Salisbury which was what we were looking for in a typical English city.

My mom and I did burn a hole in Dad’s pocket by “investing” in a number of designer bags and shoes…. I did say INVEST rite….!!

Picture to follow when hubs and I finally sort out the hundreds and hundreds of photos we took
