Took a bit of breather resting at home yesterday and got the much needed cuddles from my Pixie. She&#8217;s apparently still having her coughs and colds so also nursing that, too. My cracked phone from dropping it accidentally in Bangkok was also quickly replaced yesterday thru the husband&#8217;s help and <a href=\"https:\/\/info.singtel.com\/personal\/phones-plans\/mobile\/vas\/mobileswop\/detail\">Singtel&#8217;s mobile swop<\/a> policy where I get to receive a swop unit right away even if\u00a0I needed to pay a little extra. Better than not getting a phone at all. I should get those extra super sturdy cases recommended by a new friend for someone as clumsy as me who has proven it too many times.<\/p>\n<p>Meantime, while I get back on track, I&#8217;m still holding on to that lingering feeling of being wanderlust high&#8230;posting some bits and pieces and behind the scenes. I haven&#8217;t been to any European countries yet but travelling to these places gave me a taste of it except of course the sweltering weather. You&#8217;d be as \u00a0deliriously\u00a0surprised as I was\u00a0that we found these vintage, rustic and charming spots \u00a0(including the <a href=\"http:\/\/josephinesicadphotography.com\/blog\/2015\/02\/27\/hello-from-hua-hin\/\">lovely vineyard<\/a> I posted before this), not close somewhere in European countries &#8212; but just right around Hua Hin. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>Hope you all enjoy the rest of this week!<\/p>\n<p>p.s. I needed a new profile photo so I found my spot and got my new Thai friend click the shutter for me and take that photo above. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-12116\" src=\"http:\/\/josephinesicadphotography.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/2015-03-03_0019.jpg\" alt=\"2015-03-03_0019\" width=\"900\" height=\"606\" \/>If only there were clifftop views of the ocean, you&#8217;d know straight away we were in Santorini, Greece&#8230;.but we&#8217;re not.

And on my right is Lulu, one gleeful lady and nurse who I really salute for being the most supportive bridesmaid to Alycia and taking care of us if we needed food or a drink. She rightfully earns it being promoted to Maid-of-Honor now! Right, Lulu? \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>And of course, the gorgeous charming couple, Alycia and Desmond, who I owe this great experience for. I&#8217;m truly delighted and eternally grateful that you trusted me to be part of your pre-wedding trip.
