• My barely-a-month-old Anna Sui Secret Wish Eau De Toilette was confiscated at immigration. And hell yeah, I was extremely pissed! You see, I got that cologne at The World Trade Bazaar for, guess what, 40% off! And! I had only used for like, 10 times! But I had no one to blame but myself (which is probably I was so upset). I just dumped it inside my handcarry and didn’t even think of the airport regulations. Ayan tuloy Kelly! Tsk tsk tsk!

• Manu’s F1 cap, which was purchased at Monaco, got lost at Changi Airport! This was also upsetting as this was our favorite cap, add to the fact that you just can’t buy it anywhere! Again, Tsk tsk tsk!

• Manu’s Percy Lights and Sounds train (which costs P1,000 for a small wooden train, can you believe it?) also got lost somewhere between Pepper Lunch and Royal Plaza. At first, we thought that it was under our bed but when Gats tried to look for it, Percy wasn’t there.

• All of the above happened during the first day of our trip. TSK! TSK! TSK!

• We were able to purchase accessories for Manu’s train set, namely:

The Echo Tunnel

A limited edition Holiday Tunnel with Christmas Thomas

Quarry Mine Tunnel

• I was able to buy a pair of Melissa Night which costs 50% less than retail price in Manila

• I was able to buy three boxes of Royce’ chocolates. Yumyumyum!

• And the ultimate highlight of the entire trip? Going through the entire experience with my Manu and Gats. Everything else comes in second.
