Firsts

# Friday
First time in five years that I felt that my dad was proud of me.
First time in my entire life when I realised the meaning of "Someone back home is waiting for you".

# Saturday
First visit to Marine Drive.

First experience of a flat tire.

# Sunday
First taste of Phara.
First feel of an unborn baby's heartbeat.

All in all, a good weekend :)
