Setting foot abroad

We reached our destination in the wee hour of the morning..it was about 6 am local time and it was winter…the boys did not have their heavy sweater on and it was chilly..both my son were not in their strollers and they were groggy from sleep..

The line at the custom and immigration were quite long since they only open one line…however it ran quite smoothly..although we didn’t appreciate all the dogs sniffing near us and the bag! But we understood the needs..then came the final big question..

The custom officer picked one bag and asked us to describe what’s in it..among all the 3 big + 1 smaller traveling bag, 2 back pack and 1 tennis bag..the custom officer picked up the tennis bag..the question actually froze us in track..she can just pick any of the other bag and I could gladly tell her what is in it and the exact location of everything inside the bag..but the tennis bag was the bag that we stuffed every other things that cannot fit in the other bag, that was the last one packed..and I can’t remember the things we put inside it..nor did hubby…plus hubby was soo worried about a little stain on his tennis shoe…but the question was just a formality..we didn’t do anything wrong..she just pick randomly and check..fuh lega…

A friend of hubby, came to pick us up at the airport..however we still have to take an additional taxi because of all the load hehehe..we stayed a while at their place, they even cooked nasi for us..thanks a million!!..however I was quite tired, and dozed off a few minutes…well u see, I didn’t get a chance to sleep in the flight because my baby boy was fretting even in his sleep…

Then we went to another one of hubby’s friend’s house, where we will spent a few days before we find a place of our own..
