Houston, We Have A Problem!

It has been exactly a month since I blogged, and I deeply apologize. For those who are in my Facebook social circle of friends, you would have known why.

Yup, I had a 10 day meeting in Houston, Texas! Hubby and Aiden tagged along during this business trip and survived a one-way 30 hour (accumulative) flight. We even made a short 3-hour drive to San Marcos to check out the outlets there (as if the two outlets in Houston weren't enough).

Since Hubby and I were in Houston for a month about two years ago, we had done all the touristy stuff back then. And as Aiden is too young to understand the sightseeing, we made this trip specifically a shopping trip.

So where are the pictures, you ask? Erm.... to be honest, I don't even know where to start. So bear with me while I sort through this 167 new work emails before finally getting to choosing the pictures, editing and blogging about it. But for now, all you need to know is that it was definitely an experience keeping Aiden occupied in a long-haul flight, we had soooooooo much fun shopping and we brought home 100kg worth of luggage.

And still, I have some shopping regrets. I am mad, sometimes.

  7. Dayang, good luck for Italy. I just missed the Black Friday sale by just a few days (*sigh* if only the meeting was postponed by just a few days) but what to do! At least we all went and it was definitely an experience bringing Aiden with us. So now i'm just going to sit quietly at home sebab bank dah kering.

  12. Mira, I think its the exchange rate conversion in our head lah. For instance, kalau shopping kat Spore, conversion is 2.2 or 2.3. Tapi bila nak convert to RM sure kira times 2 jer. Actually the .2 is a lot! Sama lah macam US, 3.4 tapi kira times 3 jer. Hahaha...
