Back

Hello dear bloggers,

I have been wishing to blog but life got in the way again. And my mum is visiting so that kind of fills up our life in a nice way. We also managed to go to Bali over the spring break and it was lovely.

I made this card in a real jiffy with pretty store bought stickers. I know I could have made the roses at home yet I find it a thrill to stick something right away on a card and be instantly gratified. 

I was so impressed with this bougainvillea plant in the hotel where we stayed.

This is the view of the paddy fields from our room.

Sunset from our room...

Down below are pictures of the Bali safari.

See you soon,

We were away to a hill station for two days

Hello sweet bloggers,

We were up in the mountains for two days and we also managed to go to the Animal Safari close by.  We have been here many times, but it always seem like a new and refreshing experience every time. What luxury to go to a hill station and sit there just watching the beautiful scenery and admiring the breathtakingly beautiful flowers. Oh beautiful Indonesia!

We also drove through a picturesque tea estate and bought tea from there.

Be warned - this is a picture heavy post. Lol.

Flowers in the resort ...

More pink flowers...

And still more flowers... these are zinnias down below. Incidentally Zeenya is named after this flower but we changed the spelling of her name.

Down below is the beautiful view from our villa

Another angle...

 Tea gardens...

Down below are pictures of animals we saw from our car... Aleeza loved them and so did Zeenya (even though she is not so much into animals)

Guess what this is - a hungry hippo ;-)

 I guess one has to pay a price for everything - the price I paid for this was a flu' that I came back with. Never mind, it was still worth it - of course Zeenya could not wait to get back to wifi as their was poor wifi there. She even tried her best to pre-pone our departure... Lol.

Thanks for all the lovely comments on my previous post. 

I am all ready on the mend so will come and do my rounds soon.

Love,

Monica 

Will be back soon!

Hello bloggers,

Thanks so much for the kind comments on my last post...

And a warm welcome to my latest follower - Bhavana. Thanks so much for following my blog.

Just to let you all know that we are on an autumn break and will get back coming Sunday and you will find me coming and visiting. Nonetheless I have carried my craft kit with me and have made some cards as well. They are rather simple and quick cards which I will need for the Christmas Bazaar.

I am taking part in the Zeenya's school Christmas Bazaar as well. No idea what the response will be but I am excitedly getting a range ready. After that there is another Christmas Bazaar that I will participate in, that is if I manage to get a table... I believe it is quite a big thing to be able to grab a table in this Bazaar so am keeping my fingers crossed.

Catch you soon.

Hugs,

Monica
