What y'all doing for EID?? - jag - 10-31-2005
I did want to rent a hotel room in a nice resort but EVERYTHING is totally booked out.. so might have to settle for just chilling at the beach, then heading over to a pub or two, and just lazing...
Oh, and the missus has been bugging me to check out the newly opened Budda Bar.. anyone been there yet?
Anyone doing anything exciting??? 8)

I have no other plan 'yet' :cry:

go camping, a little picnic, some wine, a few stars, a fire, a tent and good weather.
I'm all about cheap, GF is all about romantic this works for both hahahaha

Yes, i'm spending some Quality time with my father.
As i'm moving to Brisbane after 3 weeks, i'll go with my father to a 3 days fishing trip in the red sea, i'm in Egypt now.
Happy Eid

I'd have loved to spend some time with my folks but sadly their 12,000 kms away

I though Eid is a day which will be spent in prayers, going to church , and ending the month long fasting? and I never even dreamt people will be fun loving and that too on such an auspicious day!!!

Well since 80% of the people in this country are expats and probably a large part of them are not muslims it is just a holiday for some of us......
Must say I really need this long weekend.........

Now that doesnt sound too bad at all mate! I might just do that on one of the nights
Other than that just spend some time with family, catch up on some flicks, and just VEG. Business is hectic and I could do with just staring at the wall hehe - you need to do that sometimes to maintain your sanity!
Thing about resorts in Brisbane.. it really does feel like you're on a mini vacation in some exotic place.. even though its just a 30 min drive from town! Gotta love that.. but sadly everything is booked solid!!
Well, today traffic everywhere was a NIGHTMARE. Esp around all the banks. Had to deposit some cheques but left it till after EID when i saw the chaos! People were there as if the banks were giving out free $$$!! But I did stock up on the $ since many times during EID the ATM machines actually run out of money!
Well, everyone have a good one 8)

BudAUDa Bar - KC - 11-04-2005
I'm working through Eid too
BudAUDa Bar is okay. Very trendy and overpriced, but worth going at least once.
