Survived Another Business Trip Part 2

I am super thankful that the office is a stone throw from the hotel. This means that I had more time in the morning. Gym time. 


On the way to the office, I brought bfast and snacks for myself and the colleagues. Day 2 in Jakarta was uneventful. Dinner was in-room dining while I caught up with work. Happiness. Coke with ice after a long day is superb!


I visited the site on Day 3 and felt a little like Puah Chu Kang.
These are safety shoes but I didn't feel very safe in them bcos they were too big and super loose. Half the time, I was worried that I would trip over in them but I survived. 

Nana asked for pictures of the hotel room. I forgot to them on day 1 and waited for the room to be made up for these. 

The room is spacious and the bed! So big with 4 fluffy pillows. 

My flight home was on Friday, which was Day 4. It was a 7pm flight and the colleagues kindly reminded me that I should depart early for the airport bcos Friday's traffic is always unpredictable. I left at 3.30pm and the traffic wasn't too bad. Immigration was smooth too and I found myself with a lot of time. Never mind, I am an expert in nuahing. 

This was pre-dinner snack. 

I asked for a glass of ice to go with the coke then changed my mind. I don't think I should take such risk pre-boarding. 

It was a busy/ full flight. People started queuing before the gate was opened. 

I waited bcos I only have a backpack that can go under the seat and didn't have to fight for the cabin luggage space. But the Singapoean in me got more and more jittery as the Q extended. Singaporea must Q. Ya, I gave in the joined the crowd too.

While boarding, I saw this interesting luggage. Reminded me of the trunki that we had, which basically cannot put anything much. Lol. Our kids would have love this if they are 10 years younger. 

I had in-flight dinner bcos the pre-dinner snack had digested long ago. It was hot beef with potato. Nice! I was half thinking if the family would come pick me bcos Nana went on her own to send the Chan Family off wor. 
Did they? No lah. Hoho. Daddy Lim even reminded me to tiptoe when I am home to not disturb his beauty sleep. Zzzzz.

I think most of the people on flight were transiting bcos I am sure I didn't take that long at immigration or choosing Daddy Lim's whisky but this was what greeted me at the belt. 

So lonely. Lol. 

I made it home safe and sound. I tried tiptoeing but was obviously very loud. Lol. In fact, I started dropping stuff the moment I enter the room. Hohoho. I am home!

Yay, I survived another business trip. Nana survived a day braiding her own hair without me. 
She said that it was so messy and so many of her friends commented on her hair. It was only to take a paper and she immediately unbriaded her hair after she stepped out of school. She unfortunately has no papers to take for the rest of the week and thus no school and no need to braid her hair.
