Bad Travelling Day

I have never experienced a traffic jam that was as bad as yesterday. It started raining around 1.30 p.m. while I was on my way from the training center to the hotel. I thought I'd take a rest since my other half wanted to pray and we had to check out of the hotel anyway. After the event was over, we were contemplating whether we should drive back straight to our hometown or, go on with our original plan to drop by at one of the shopping centers.

Well, we got stuck in the jam for nearly 2 hours. It normally takes us about 15 minutes from the training center to that particular shopping center.. but because it was raining, it took us 2 hours! Bad day. We even had our iftar in the car. What a test. And worse still, I didn't find what I was looking for. Then, we wanted to have some food at one of our favourite restaurants - and it was full! We had to queue!! For another 15 minutes!! I was already half dead at that time.

But Alhamdullilah, my other half was strong enough to calm me down. So, after dinner and some shopping, we left. We got stuck in another jam but we managed to get through it quite calmly and we reached home after midnight. How we missed the twins!!!
