Looking for a magic carpet?

Beautiful and costly carpets on display at Ibn Batuta Mall.

last day in the office today

Today’s my last day in the office before I my leave starts. We’ll be leaving in a few days and I am so happy to have one extra day tomorrow because of a national holiday. You think I’m going to spend that extra day packing? No! Packing has been done ages ago. The female population in my house (me, my mom and the little girl) will go out to see Mamma Mia the movie!

I have attempted to watch the musical in Broadway when we went to London 2 years ago but was refused entrance since Pristine was barely three years old that time. Now, it’s finally ok to let this Abba fanatic toddler see this wonderful movie. I am sure she’ll love it.

It’s been an exhausting 21 months - the unbelievably total number of time I haven’t had a proper break! I’m really looking forward to this vacation. I need this. But you know those last hours when you’re crunchin’ on a double work pile, trying to get everything done but your brain is already splashing in the surf?
