Our guest came and went, and during the short time he was with us, we had a very hectic and packed schedule. Mark and I both agreed that we haven't had such a activity filled (read: exhausting) day in a very long time.

Mark's cousin made a rather last minute request to go to the zoo, and much as we dreaded it (due to the heat, school holiday crowd, etc), we took our guest there. There was A LOT of walking involved.. I don't remember the last time I have walked so much (or perspired as much).

Breakdown of events for yesterday:
  • 9am - Prepare breakfast
  • 10.30am - Wash up and get ready to leave the house
  • 11.30pm - Leave the house for the Zoo
  • 12pm - Arrive at the Zoo (there was a freaking long queue for the admission tickets)
  • 1pm - Enter the Zoo (finally)
  • 4.30pm - Leave the Zoo for my friend's place (to drop off Christmas pressies)
  • 5.45pm - Leave friend's house to go for early dinner
  • 6.45pm - Leave for the Airport
  • 7.45pm - Leave Airport for Home Sweet Home
  • 8.30pm - Arrive home (followed by cleaning up the guest room, guest toilet, etc)
  • 10pm - Snooze-time
At least I was fortunate enough to be able to sleep in this morning while poor Mark has to drag himself to work. However, today is going to be a housework filled day because I didn't get much done over the weekend. First up? Laundry followed by ironing.
