As mentioned in the last entry that hubby had promised to bring us to Jordan as a birthday present for Erica and I. So we went over the Maulidul Rasul holiday on 19th March till 22nd March. It was a tiring holiday as the places that we went took 1-2 hours of journey. But we did enjoyed the holiday.
