The Holidays - Part 1




After about 5 years I made my way back to Europe however this time on holiday as opposed to working. The only downside - I wish I was going on working purpose. I so missed my time in UK.

My mom and I, flew on the latest SQ big bird, the A380 - It's realllllly huge!! I found myself wondering how God created men with brain to create a giant metal staying on air for that long. It's really amazing. The fact that the turbos engine can carry the body is somewhat amazing. To me at least...

This was our itinerary : -

Paris - Vienna - Milan - Lake Como - Nice - Paris - London - Paris

This holiday was planned carefully and much thanks to mostly mom's fund :-)

It was a tight schedule. And though I did not manage to stick to every little details considering that we have 2 toddlers and mom on a wheelchair, I am happy that we manage to do at least 80% of it.

We stayed at Ayu's n Megat's home. That's my sister. They have this nice spacious apartment by europen standard at a posh district of Paris - District 13 I believe with the nearest station Trocadero and a stone throw away from Tour Eiffel. Fantastic!!

I was glad that our transportation and accomodation were booked on online. With the volcano eruption in Iceland, hotels price went sky high and transportation were either halted indefintely or available at a very ridiculously high price!!

All and all, the trip will be forever cherished and hoping there will come a day I will step my foot again on these beautiful places.
