Spring Break 2012 – Myrtle Beach: Day 1
On the 2nd of April, we drove from Charleston to Myrtle Beach. We stopped on the way for breakfast and had a nice Southern meal: [shashin type=”photo” id=”4844,4845,4843″ size=”small” columns=”max” order=”user” position=”center”] Then, after settling in to our hotel in Myrtle Beach, we headed down to see what there was to see – [shashin type=”photo”…

Spring Break 2012 – Charleston
I’m a little behind in updating about my spring break after meeting with my parents, mostly because the free wifi is in the lobby and I’m less apt to spend much time here. However, since I’m free this morning, I’m gonna catch up a little bit. So, on the 1st, I spent the day in…

Spring Break 2012 – Philly: TESOL Int’l Convention to Charleston
The conference was truly a crazy few days as I started to get over jet lag and was getting up early every day to attend sessions. My main intent for being there was to do the Leadership Certificate Program, which I had started through some online courses in the fall. At the time that I…

Phew, it’s been a bit of a whirlwind the past few days…. I would write more, but I’m exhausted. Instead, I will just post some pics: [shashin type=”photo” id=”4789,4790,4791,4792,4793,4794,4795,4796,4797″ size=”small” columns=”max” order=”user” position=”center”]

Spring Break 2012 – Toronto: Day 3
In general, if I haven’t planned prior to traveling, I basically do whatever the mood strikes when I am actually on the trip. This makes things easier for me as I either plan or plan to be spontaneous. 😛 Since my main purpose for coming to Toronto was to visit with my friends, Shu &…

Spring Break 2012 – Toronto: Day 2
Jet lag hasn’t been so bad considering the amount of flying I did, but it still exists…. Although I woke up at 5am with some dozing until about 10am, Shu and I still managed to walk from Howland through Little Italy to Queens Way to Chinatown to Kensington Market area and back home again. It…

Spring Break 2012 – Toronto: Day 1
My first full day in Toronto has been pretty relaxed. We had a relaxed start, but still on the early side as I’m kind of used to getting started around noon, not when it is still morning…. 😉 [shashin type=”photo” id=”4671,4672,4673,4674″ size=”small” columns=”max” order=”user” position=”center”] So, we headed down to St. Lawrence market, which is…

Spring Break 2012 – To Toronto
Surprisingly, I am awake at a ‘normal’ time (8:00am) after taking a 12.5 direct flight AUH – JFK and then after a 4-hour layover was on a 1.5hour flight JFK – YYZ. The flight to New York from Abu Dhabi was fairly painless in the grand scheme of things. However, nearly 12 hours of two…

Indonesia: Bali Days 20 & 21
Well, our last day was spent relaxing with final massages, errands, etc. Overall, we had a really lovely time in Bali and were sad to see the time come to an end. The return journey took us back to Jakarta on our way to Bangkok. I headed back to Abu Dhabi from there. Here are…

Indonesia: Bali Day 19
Hardly worth posting for today, but a little something is better than nothing they say in the blogging world… 😀 The best part of the day was getting massages – about USD6 for an hour – at the first place we went to when we arrived. They were the best. After that was dinner at…
