It was mentioned before that we passed through Hong Kong on our way to Indonesia. The plan was to have another stop over (2 nights!) on our way back home. Now that time of the year, it's COLD up there, and having seen one of those earmuffs sometime back, Kecil was determined that she needed one to brave Hong Kong weather. Well... we kind of found a cute one in Bandung, so we got it for her.
The following morning, we were getting ready for breakfast and check out from the hotel, so Kecil played the hotel safe. You know, those stuff looking like this:
Anyway, you might already guess what she did.
Yes, she put her new earmuffs in the safe, locked the safe, then failed to open it back.
And, of course, faced with the prospect of losing her brand-spanking-new ear muffs, let's just say, her wails were heard like 3 or 4 doors down the corridor.
Not knowing what number combination she used, or even how she managed to close the safe, we had to call the hotel technician to open the safe to 'rescue' the muffs. Luckily, the safe was simply locked in a default number combination, so it was a quick and simple 'rescue mission' while this Mama tried her very best to hide her mirth at the whole situation. (Kecil does NOT like it when she perceives people to be laughing at her, you know)
Moral of the story, I think Kecil learnt a lesson that day. While she was usually all over the safe and its numeric pad every time she found one in any hotel room we check in, from that point on, she largely ignore any safe in our subsequent hotel rooms. And definitely no more putting her stuff into one, bahaha....
Well, Kecil, we are definitely very happy that you learn something out of the episode. Moving on, some time in the future, we also hope that you'll learn the art of laughing at yourself. It's not too bad, really, and it definitely makes life much more fun.
Cheers, Kecil!
