Packing and more packing

This morning we slept in until 9 - wonderful! We had some breakfast and did a few things around the house before driving out to Great Eastern mall. Ross got measured for his business shirts and a new pair of trousers. Hopefully the material I bought will make nice shirts! We went downstairs and had a coffee at Starbucks before doing some shopping, picking up my contact lenses and getting some sushi for lunch.

On the way home we stopped at Hock Choon supermarket where I was supposed to put a sign up for Daisy to advertise for more work but they wouldn't let me unfortunately. So we browsed around instead as it was the first time that we had been there. Apparently Hock Choon had been the only place where you could buy Western (and particularly American) products a few years ago. They did have some things that you couldn't buy elsewhere but in general it was all pretty much the same. But it did seem that the expats were still shopping there in droves.

Back at home and Ross got busy packing for Japan while I went through my stuff again. I also started packing for Australia including a bunch of my jewellery making things. We stopped for a late lunch and then I got back to it again. By the time I had finished, I couldn't believe it was 6.30pm!

We decided to walk to Changkat Bukit Bintang for dinner. On the way we stopped in to Isetan to see if they had some shoes for Ross. We ate at the new Tapas bar that had always been closed every time we wanted to go in the past but tonight it was open. The food was good and we had a glass of peach sangria with our meal as we sat outside and watched the world go by to the sounds of Latin music. It was a really nice night.

We walked home and it was the most humid I think I had ever felt it. I was drenched in sweat by the time we got to the apartment and 20 minutes later it started pouring rain so obviously the humidity had gotten so high that it just had to rain. We watched some of the NRL game between the All Stars and the Indigenous team and then watched the first half of the AFL game between Port and Adelaide before heading to bed.
