Day 8 - Going Home

Well had to do some last minute shopping.....so was going to take trishaw to the bank first. "WAS" because......trishaws are only allowed to ferry customers in the smaller streets and can't get on to the main streets, so here we are riding along and didn't know until the police siren was blaring and an oncoming police car was stopping just behind us.....then the trishaw fellow kept on cycling away.....while urging us to get off ASAP.....we sort off jumped off the trishaw.......and he sped off without colleting the fare...poor fellow.

We booked a cab to the airport.....cost us CNY$ 80. Decided to go early.....3 hours before our flight time, was dozing off in the cab - hot, windy and dusty ride cos the cab didn't put on the aircon.

Reached airport in good time....actually too early to check in so had to wait......then got a pleasant surprise while checking in - 4 free tickets to the 5th Global Chinese Music Awards which we found out was worth RM 150 each when we turned up, courtesy of MAS as the official airline.

But traffic was horrendous around Bukit Jalil - TV3 Sure Heboh and the music award were on that night......cars were parked along the TPM-Puchong road all the way until Astro's entrance and on the opposite side almost until the Petronas station.

We had a packed schedule too - a colleague's wedding, so we went to the wedding 1st and then joined mom & sis later at the awards around 10pm and the awards went on until about midnight.
