Abu Dhabi Adventure

We left the Philippines last tuesday with a heavy heart and in as much as we want to just sit back and relax, that will not work, we need to work for a living. I really wanted to update my blog but the business center of Crowne Plaza is always full because of the limited number of computer units. Anyway, here are some pictures of our Abu Dhabi sojourn.

A Busy Saturday

The drilling company came today to conduct soil and stability test on the lots of our family friends Thomas and Remy here at Southforbes. We monitor the drilling and the workers worked on the lots till 9 in the evening.





We also visited the newly constructed church at Ayala Westgrove heights, our neighboring subdivision.




In the evening, we hosted a get together with our german friends at Rose and Grace Restaurant.

A Trip to Animal Doctor

Yesterday, we did go to the veterinary doctor for consultation and immunization of our schitzu named Guyguy/chichi. She developed some form of allergy and its good that our cutie only needs shampoo for her skin disorder.





A funny conversation transpired between me and the doctor.

ME: Doc, its much better if the hair will be remove
DOC: (tiger look on me as if saying grrrr, are you insulting me???) i'm already
bald and i dont need it (very well said doc hahaha)

Then the revenge....

Me: Doc probably our cutie will get hurt with the injection
Doc: No problem, she cannot feel the pain if i will inject it in your arm
(My Gosh, i'm not a german shepherd)

Market Day

It is holiday today due to the independence day last saturday and we declared it as our market day. We buy some vegetables, fish, chicken, fruits and dog foods at the wet market of Paseo. The nice thing about our market is that it is clean and properly maintained.





We also drive to the nearby Rustan's Supermarket to buy some groceries and filipino delicacies (suman and sapin-sapin)

A Relaxing Weekend

It's now officially rainy season but its not all rain, the sun just come and go. The weather is also nice and the plants loved the automatic watering system from the rain thus saving water and effort. I just finished my treadmill session when the Krause couple arrive yesterday. Marianne is having her driving lesson inside our subdivision. We talked about everyday life once again while relaxing in our living room.
