Phew!A week felt like an eye-blink these days. Got home safe and sound from Toronto Sunday night. It was a week well spent with The Menzies in Grand Valley and Alton. Warm and friendly people, indeed. I am done traveling for now and it’s time to concentrate on enjoying my tummy. Ha!
Wanna know what happened to me on September Friday the 13th? Not so good news lah. But nothing to do with Friday the 13th. So I did go to The Plates. Tetiber deorang cakap I am not allowed to have a Canadian Driver’s Licence because my hubby is Canadian. Say what?
That was that! Because Be is Canadian and he didn’t need to have a work permit to work in his own country, I was granted an extended VISITOR’s visa. But hey! I am not here to visit anybody. I am his other half. Too bloody bad, they said. That’s just the way it works. They can do nothing. Niente! End of story. Tamat, bye-bye, basta, asta la vista, arivederci, sayonara. Khalasss!
So saper kata civilized country tak de masalah birokrasi? Some countries can be the most advanced in the world, but their common sense is yet to graduate from Tadika. Duh! So, for now I am still good with my Omani and Malaysian Driver’s Licenses (valid for 3 months dari tarikh masuk Canada). After this, sama ada I will have to drive ‘illegally’ or be content naik taxi. Do you think I should send all my taxi bills back to the Canadian Immigration?
Ha! Say…who gets the last laugh?
