Here Comes The Sun!

Finally, the rain seems to have let up a wee bit and we are commencing construction on the public spaces.

We even managed to salvage debris from a landslide elsewhere on the island and re-use it for our foundation!

Here's a view of our restaurant, reception and office-to-be - being prepped for the concrete foundation :-)

Meanwhile, the rooms have been plastered with the gorgeous sand from our very own soil, ready for me to pick the paint colours end of this week.

Don't our gables look great in white?

Our website too is on its way, with first-cut design drafts looking very nice :-)  Hopefully it will be up and running in January, in time for our opening.

Now come the fun bits.... the choosing of paint, cushion fabrics and all the nice, pretty things that will make La Pari-Pari complete.  Although these are things that typically made me excited in the past, especially when it came to my soon-to-be ex-home in KL, I have found that making interior decorating decisions for 12 rooms is a lot more nerve-wracking - because one little mistake will be repeated a dozen times!

Even a case of shortening curtains by a few inches is a major exercise when you are dealing with over 60 pieces!  Thank God Mommy has come to the rescue, and with her resourcefulness, unearthed someone deep in the heart of Shah Alam who is willing to do it for a decent price.  Over and over again, I am blessed, with people around me giving their time and expertise so generously to help us pull all of this off.

So fingers crossed, we WILL open in January :-)  It's not long to go, folks, and don't I know it! :-)
