Loving London

We had a ten hour layover in London...

What can you do in London with 10 hours???

First- Go to

 https://www.heathrowexpress.com

Get round trip tickets to Paddington Station

Now- Get tickets for the Big Bus Tour

http://www.bigbustours.com/eng/london/custompage.aspx?id=london_sightseeing_tour&gclid=

When you leave the Paddington Station,  go across the street to the LEFT and you will see a Burger King, from there... Make a right. On the corner is where you will board the Bus... You will be on the Blue Line... You will switch buses...

We got off the bus and caught a taxi back... I love taking local transportation. 

We saw so much!!!

Tour De La Texas

What to do and where to go in Texas???

Good Question:)

I loved most of Texas... The weather is a bit tricky there this time of year... Sometimes it was nice and warm... And then... It was cold.

Here was where we traveled:
1. Killeen
2. Belton/Temple
3. Austin
4. Round Rock
5. Houston
6. Dallas

It was very strange driving in TEXAS...
In Kuwait Flashing lights means, "Get the *$%&*#( * OUTTA the WAY! In Texas it means, "It's clear, Come on over and get in front of me!"
In Texas EVERYONE that you pass waves... No matter what side of the road they are on...
In Texas the drivers move to the shoulder so you can get past them... Awh- The land of NICE!
It wasn't a dream, or was it...? Guess who got pulled over? And not for speeding... But for FOLLOWING TOO CLOSELY... Me. Yes, Sweet Amber! No ticket though! YES!!!


I loved Austin and the Round Rock Outlets:) Shopping!!!
We had some great BBQ...
We ate Honduran food:)
We went to our first NBA game which was outstanding!

So Happy to be in Kuwait!!!

I am so glad to be back home. I know that statement may be weird to some people... But I have made Kuwait home for our family and it is where I feel at ease! Do not get me wrong... America was great... But I was tired of hopping hotels... cities... ETC. So we are back... And photos to follow!

Vacay Planning

We have a couple of things planned out for our vacation!

Heck- We haven't been to America in a YEAR!!!

Sadly- We pulled out of the house we were building for several reasons... But as always... we prevail!

FIRST: Make a HUGE surprise for Gustavo!!! ANd make his ARRIVAL special!

---Pictures to Follow!!! I will let you know how I did!

The second HUGE thing I have planned for us is... Go to the MIA vs HOU NBA game! I know that it will be great fun! I have never been to one before! I have been thinking about my outfit... Just in case me and Mi Suave get put on the kissing Cam!!! MUAH MUAH MUAH... Look out for us! The kids will be there too! And I hope they love it! I will be putting my camera to use whilst on vacation!

THREE: I finally just watched the trailer for Twilight Breaking Dawn Part II... I am about to purchase tickets on FANDANGO
-Yes- We will be watching that when we are home! The kids and I are excited but I am sure Gustavo will fall asleep. He never gets into these types of movies and though I may have got him to watch bits and pieces of the previous movies- It wasn't enough to follow the storyline: See below
