Butterfly Park - 016
April 26, 2012 // Toni Tate // Kuala Lumpur // Comments 0

Thanks to my Nonno and Nonna I have always called Butterfly’s Fuffalina’s and sometimes without realizing, I would refer to them as Fuffalina’s in front of people that don’t know what I’m talking about and get confused, quizzical faces until I realize they don’t know what the bejeezus I’m talking about. Fuffalinas in Perth are… Read more →

It was a very smooth and painless flight from Bali to Kuala Lumpur and we landed at the low cost carrier international (KLLC) for Air Asia 20 minutes early at 8:40am instead of 9am which is even better.

April 21, 2012 // Toni Tate // Bali // Comments 0

So finally getting to sleep at about 2:30am after arriving at midnight, I awoke about an hour later to Merv snoring peacefully and a most annoying mosquito that would not leave me alone and kept me awake all night on the hour until Merv woke up and went for a run at about 7:30am.
