Yesterday we had our routine doctor's appointment. Since our doctor is located at one of the largest hospitals in Kuala Lumpur, we have never had a problem getting there via taxi. At least, not before today. Yesterday, we managed to get the one taxi driver that thought when we said "Prince Court Hospital", we really meant "Prince Hotel". Not only that, but he also took us through downtown Kuala Lumpur during the lunch rush hour, which was awesome. It wasn't until he pulled up to the hotel that we realized he had no clue where the hospital actually was. Once we figured this out, we gave him directions and he finally figured out where he was going. At this point we had driven in a huge loop.
The real kicker was when he pulled into the hospital entrance and started going into paid parking before he realized that was not the drop off point. I think we found the only taxi driver who has not heard of or been to this hospital before. Our 5 minute ride ended up taking 30 minutes and I wouldn't have minded so much except that this particular visit to the doctor was also when we were finding out the gender of our baby. Talk about feeling anxious!

Oh wow, of all the times to have that happen. I bet you were just dying! Not to mention the added cost as well as the time. I am glad you still got to find out what the babe is. Oh well, at least you weren't in labor and ready to have the baby. That would have been worse.
