An Unexpected (Extended) Holiday!

Due to fly off on Tue (3 Jul). Was happy to be on the way home as I missed my Darling a lot.

We arrived early at Cardiff Airport, expecting jam and such due to the high alert state that UK is in now after the various bomb scares and Glasgow Airport bombing. As we waited, the timing of our departure kept changing. In the end, our flight to Amsterdam was delayed as a result of bad weather. We knew we would be late for our connecting flight. I could only pray that that flight would be delayed too. Alas, we did miss the flight back to Singapore and we ended up staying one night at Amsterdam. We had initially wanted to visit that city when we had a stopover on our way to Cardiff. That didn't materialise as time was tight. Well, well, now we did have the chance to have a quick glance of the city!

It was indeed an extended holiday! We managed to visit a windmill park and gotten some souvenirs. It was a good trip on the whole, aside from all those unforseen circumstances.

It'd be quite some time before I have the patience and courage to travel long distance to Europe again (& having to have Western food all the time!).
