Time Flies When You're Having Fun

Well, they came and now they've left. The Tay-family's mini gathering here in Bangkok albeit short, was most fun and enjoyable. Being in a kid-friendly hotel like The Oriental made so much of a difference having Emma with us. Then again, at the Oriental, money talks and shit walks. So you know my little Princess of a niece had the best of everything the last few days... of course, she has the best of everything everyday; and the hotel certainly lived up to her standards (and ours, as expected). Her special meals everyday were absolutely delicious lol. The waitresses were awed by her and of course, dad had the time of his life showing his new pride and joy off to everyone :) Strangers were taking pictures of her. It was quite funny.

Despite the crazy happenings in the middle of our vacation ie mom landing up at the hospital, dad and the sil falling in and out of the bad flu that mom had caught from Emma, crazy conversations with the Cambodian traffic mover at the Conrad Hotel (you can't miss him when you drive up to the Conrad), praying dad didn't embarass us by screaming at anyone at the Oriental, dad screaming at the limo girl at the Oriental (lol), practically being 'arrested' at the hotel trying to sneak some fresh durian into the room (that was not only funny, but we saw it coming way too late and by then it was too late to even give it to the cab driver lol) and just insanity that sits by the Tay family when we're together.

All in all, I had a great time and I can't wait to get together with everyone again.
Maybe dad and Kevin will join us in Tokyo in a couple of weeks for an eat-fest lol. If not, I guess we'd go see Emma again in Australia in June/July. That girl is SOOOO adorable. I'm going to put up some short videos of her in the pictures site here so you can check it out.

Now, I have to get ready for my 24 hour relay back home. I'm so not ready for this. If it wasn't for love... lol :D
