We are at the end of our amazing trip. On the eve of our departure, we were lucky enough *cough* to experience the outer reaches of a typhoon. Yay, us.
After stressing for a few moments that we might not be able to fly home tonight because of the storm, I figured what will be will be. If we get to the airport and they are still clearing a backlog of stranded planes from overnight, we’ll just wait.
But as if that wasn’t enough, yesterday the sudden change in air pressure burst one of my eardrums. I have been frantically googling “can you fly with a ruptured eardrum” and similar. Going to a doctor with my sister inlaw playing interpreter this morning. I only hope he clears me to fly.
So! I don’t know if we’ll be seeing Steve tomorrow after all. I haven’t the heart to tell Lolly. Having had the time of her life at Hello Kitty Land and visiting Kitty’s house only the day before, she is on a holiday end high. She has been saying all morning how she can’t wait to “see Daddy and hug him and hug him and never let go.”
Oh dear. Trust me to go and stuff her plans.






Bloody eardrums, ALWAYS putting plans off balance!
I see what you did there! B’doom-tishhhh
Oh no!
But at least it’s a story….?

A fine tale of woe if ever there was one! Not sure it’d be a best-seller but it’s good for fireside tales in decades to come…
Oh no, not sure you can fly with a broken ear drum, but if you can, have a great flight home (and no ear pain).
Looking forward to many stories and pics of your adventures. Hugs xxx
Well, K, it appears you can… but it was the infection in the middle and outer ear that caused me grief in the end.
oouuch!
I said: oouuch!
Seriously, hope you’re good to go and hope that eardrum heals soon!
Speak up, sonny, did you say something about a couch? I have to hope the infection clears up soon first… they can’t even see the eardrum right now to assess the damage (it’s a bit of a mess).
I want to know about the toilet at Hello Kitty Land. The one in Hello Kitty’s house.
See you soon.
It wasn’t the toilet at HK’s house that was a hit, it was the bath/shower combo! Complete with running water sounds.
