Scotland 2011

 MasyaAllah! I totally abandoned this sad blog. LOL! Apparently I was writing a post on Scotland! Let's see.....

Assalamualaikum =) It's Ramadhan already! I'm so hyped! May you all have a blessed Ramadhan!

So this time around, I managed to persuade dad to send me to Edinburgh for 2 weeks! Rather than wasting time doing nothing, might as well I travel to undiscovered places, kan?

I traveled on Malaysia Airlines from Kuala Lumpur to Amsterdam, that's for transit and took KLM from Amsterdam to Edinburgh! The flight to Amsterdam was a whopping 13 hours filled with movies. haha. Amsterdam's Schipol Airport is quite old fashioned but there's H&M! =D and bookstores all over. That was how I kill time before boarding.

I arrived at Edinburgh Airport at nearly 5 in the evening, shops were mostly closed and all I can do is go back to my aunt's place some 30 minutes away and rest. But it was okay I guess since I was pretty tired from the trip. Plus, I had to recharge if I intend to do some walking the days to come =p

All I did was babysit my little cousin Muaz and help Chik (my auntie) in the kitchen. hihihi.

Some UIA bigshots were in Edinburgh for a follow up with the postgraduates studying in the UK. My aunt and uncle played host again, babysitting was on me. hihi.

Today I got to travel to Livingston with Cik Lan (my uncle), Muaz and 2 of the bigshots' children. Livingston is a factory outlet where you can find H&M, Topshop, Topman, Nike, Levi's, Debenhams, Peacock, Internacionale and many others. They're definitely cheaper than Malaysia but not necessarily dirt cheap.

Today is the day. We rented a car to travel to Southern England. Cik Lan and Chik had it all planned and I purposely changed my flight ticket to fit this trip! haha.
