Another Impromptu Drive!

The past few weeks had been tough. My day job took up all my time, with everyone needed to overcome a major obstacle. At the same time, the project that had drained so much of my energy was finally reaching an important milestone.

But while work pushed forward, my lower back began to protest. Dr Chin at Nova Chiropractor did everything he could to ease the pain, which meant no walkabouts for a while. A real bummer for us.

A Reason to Celebrate

Even though the big obstacle at work was still troubling, we received great news — our project was approved by the board of directors. That meant we could finally move on to the next phase. We were ecstatic, and in true “us” fashion, we decided to celebrate with a spontaneous drive to Sepang.

Our goal was to visit the “Warnai Raya KLIA2” event, which featured several booths from Sarawak. One booth in particular sold traditional beaded bracelets, similar to the ones we got during our last trip to Kuching.

Breakfast and Shoe Hunting

Since we arrived early, we stopped for breakfast at Bungkus Kaw-Kaw. We both ordered Nasi Lemak, and with drinks, our meal came to RM25.10 (approximately USD6/EUR5).

After breakfast, we walked into the Skechers store to look for a reasonably priced pair of work shoes, but nothing suitable was available.

Searching for the Beaded Bracelets

We then went looking for the booth selling the beaded bracelets. After a short search, we found it — but it wasn’t open yet. So we decided to drive over to Mitsui Outlet Park to continue our hunt for brown work shoes.

I also had a birthday voucher from Puma to redeem, but when we arrived, we discovered it had expired the day before. To make things worse, the Skechers store here also had no brown work shoes, even though many other pairs were on discount.

Third Time’s the Charm

After this double disappointment, we drove back to KLIA2, and as they say, third time’s the charm — the booth we wanted to visit was finally open. (Be sure to watch our previous video for a twist in the tale!)

With our mission complete, we headed home.

More Road Trips Ahead

We’re already planning another road trip in a few weeks’ time. Catch you all soon!
