All by myself...

Once again I find myself 'Home Alone'!

Zubair arrived just before 1am this morning to collect Thomas and take him to the airport. As I would not be allowed in the airport building, I declined the journey to the airport and waved him off from the gate.

We have had a very restful week, which was just what we needed. We did do a little sightseeing, by visiting Makhli and Thatta, but mainly we have just enjoyed being together and played a lot of Scrabble (both scoring over 400, in different games) and Cribbage.

Sadly, Monday's trip to thebeach didn't happen as Thomas had eaten something that had disagreed with him and didn't want to be too far from the facilities.

Thankfully, by Tuesday he was fully recovered and so after our excursion into Interior Sindh we booked into the Arabian Sea Country Club for two nights, which was wonderfully relaxing, the Club is about an hour's drive from Karachi, but about a million miles!

Friday took us to Maria's for 'Ande paratha' which is an eggs and bread brunch. After this we went to the markets to do some shopping. We bought scarves and shoes and a couple of other bits and pieces.

Then on Saturday it was a little more shopping and a delicious lunch out and then back here to pack and play a few more hands of Cribbage before it was time for Thomas to leave for the airport.

After two weeks of getting up late and lounging around I am a little concerned at the thought of getting up at 6.15am tomorrow!! Well at least its only 9 days until our next holiday and only 10 weeks until the end of term, how will I survive...
