TGIF - we're off to Vietnam for our first real beach holiday in SE Asia and I feel like a little girl on her last day of school. Joe and I have been really busy lately so I can't wait to get to the hotel/island and have no option but to just cchhiilll. It'll be four days of sun, sand, and maybe some rain. The tropical kind is okay though - I'll take a downpour while wearing a bikini rather than a coat any day!

I'll be back here on Wednesday but will probably sneak in a few instagrams while away, join me will ya?

Selamat Hari Raya to those celebrating the end of Ramadan here in Malaysia and have a great (and restful) weekend to you all!
