Randoms: PIC's Own List of Cities to Visit

Ok, so I know I have a gajillion posts in backlog, but here I am again sharing bits of fluff. 

Due to the popularity of my earlier "Cities" post, I thought you guys might be equally interested in PIC's own list of Top Ten Cities to visit. So here goes -

On some random plane to some random place :P

  1. Tokyo
  2. Moscow + St Petersburg
  3. Berlin + Munich
  4. Monaco + Zurich
  5. Athens
  6. Rio de Janeiro + Argentina
  7. Barcelona
  8. Phnom Penh
  9. Beijing + Shanghai
  10. Morocco

Now, despite being an auditor you might notice that Maths isn't exactly his strong suit. Neither is following directions. He also wanted me to mention that he's also interested in seeing Egypt, Seattle, Bangkok and Poland just in case he can still squeeze those in.

Funny how there are at least 455 cities in the world with populations of over a million people but we still come up with the same five cities in our top ten (or in PIC's case -- expanded top ten) list. 

I do have to say that with each year we see more cities, this list does tend to change a bit. If you had asked us to hand in our top tens' earlier this year you'd probably see four different cities squeezed into this and four others booted out. So have a think yourself, maybe its time to give that tired old favourite a rest and see more of the world -- what's your top ten??

Diaries of the Newly Enciente: Baby Lists!

A visual of our loot from this shopping spree... There are lists to be followed and lists to be ignored. For this one, I think I fell safely in the middle. Shopping for babies in NZ is not particularly appealing. You kind of get the feeling that there is not enough interest in all the bits and baubles of babyland and everything is so overpriced! A good example of this is how Mothercare recently closed its operations in NZ for lack of sufficient market. This, despite the abundance of babies to be found cavorting on the streets. It simply boggles the mind! Last August, we booked a trip to the USA for our annual biggie vacay and shopping spree only to realize four months later that I'll be at the tail end of my 2nd trimester when we finally make the trip. The trip's focus instantly changed at that point from "me, me, me" to "baby, baby, baby". If we thought buying on Amazon was cheaper than buying locally even with shipping costs, imagine how

That Little Old Lady

Mama and Fatman arrive in NZ Unbeknownst to her, I call my mom "China" when I speak of her. No, its not because of that lady wrestler from long ago -- its actually an odd reference to a porcelein doll. Why? I can't even remember now, but I drum up this memory as my mom and "Fatman"(cue the 70s Batman theme) head to NZ for a six week visit and their first Western adventure.
