Whirlwind Vacations

I don’t mind traveling. In fact I am pretty sure the every year at Pixelworks I logged in over 100K miles in air travel. The only travels I don’t really like are the ones which are rushed. Unfortunately when you are talking about worldwide businesses you can’t escape from the last minute emergencies which require multiple people flying to different destinations with heavy equipment the next day.

It turns out I will be heading back to Singapore again next week for business. My sister will be coming into Taiwan for 2 weeks on Sunday so will only have 1 day to hang out before taking off on Tuesday. But it is ok because she and my mom are going to Cambodia on Thursday. This frees Annie up to come join me in Singapore on Thursday also. So it will be like a mini-vacation. We will get to see our good friends there and also check out some of the new sights in Singapore. I actually prepared a surprise for Annie this time. I booked Saturday night at Singapore Fullerton Hotel. When we were living in Singapore we loved that hotel and I promised her to take stay there someday. I won’t tell Annie about it so this is a surprise and also it is a test to see if Annie actually reads my blog:-).

As for Mimi, she will be going back to Hsinchu with Minnie. When Mimi was younger, the first time Annie and I took a vacation she had a rough time. She was still on breast milk and used to sleeping with mommy and daddy. However now that she is older can play by herself and sleep in her own bed she will be ok. She will have Yankee there to play with and also Minnie takes good care of her. It will be a good break for her from being stuck at home all day.
