2023 - year of new travels

 August 2023 to Bangkok

and

November 2023 to Nha Trang (where we planned but scuttled by Covid many years ago)

First flight post Covid restriction

 Apr 15 - 19 2023

Flight to KK for short vacation @ Sabah.

Been under virtual house arrest with Covid, since ... March 2020

 Both Sam & I had our vaccination jab in May 2021 and scheduled for 2nd jab on 27th of July (about 9 days' time).

This has been a very unpleasant period for humanity, many had died from the disease, many had taken their lives and many more had lost their homes, their jobs and sources of income, living on assistance render by kind Samatarians.

When would we see light again?  Good question.  This is a very trying period, especially to the religious inclined, coz their prayers are yet to be answered and offer no basis to their continued faith.

2018

Another hard to believe story: Ernny is now 9 years old.  A fine young lady, with her own 'attitude', that needed to be moulded, to enable her to fit into today's society.

And she has a younger sibling, Bernny Chan, who is turning 5 this November.

and I am zooming into 'retirement' age, with months to go: though cannot retire until 75.

Zooming into the future

Hard to believe, it's been over 4 years since the blog was created (and left idle).

Now, little Ernny has done 42 months whereas her Papa had done 49 years.  Time flies.

Maybe someday when Papa has long gone and Ernny has grown up with offsprings of her own,  might get nostalgic reading this Blog to her kids (that is, my Ernny has my thread of being a sentimental, loving and a little foolish homo sapien.

While being with her Mama wasn't honeymoon (and honeymoon days ended right after the Sydney trip), Ernny is the most exciting and pleasant creation of our union.  Thank you Ernny for joining us and making my life complete
