  • Roller Coaster Weekend

    Ugh, this past weekend has been so full of ups and downs that I don't even know where to begin. It went a little like this: Downside: The original flight I was planning to book home was full, so no cheap tix for procrast…

  • Spa Day

    On our last day, we booked a two-hour spa treatment before he headed off to the airport. Our treatment menu: 1 hour of four-hand massage 45 minutes of lulur body scrub 15 minutes of hot petal bath soak I've never had a …

  • Hitting the Towns

    I resisted spending too much time in the actual touristy town areas of Kuta and Seminyak on this trip. Not only because it's annoying to be constantly hassled by vendors who want to sell me manicures, hair braiding, or t…

  • Ever since the first visit I've had to Penang, I've always wanted to take a picture of this KFC, and this time I finally got to! Penang is full of these old colonial houses, and some are quite lovely and restored, but…

  • Mini Break Over

    Just got back from HK, a 3-day break to attend a cousin's wedding. The wedding itself was lavish, was huge, and had celebrities, but like many Chinese banquets, utterly dull. J also got to most of the clan in one go, an…

  • Stop 4: On toward KL

    Going through a bit of a writer's block on my work report, so will spend a little time on this. Tourists... Alex got his first taste of driving in Malaysia in the stretch between the jungle and the city. As it turned…
