The Holiday

update from The View.

We were there for 3D2N.

The room was superb, the hotel itself was really nice. But it being August, we had a lot of Pak Arabs around.

We didn't go out at all from the confines of BTS, oh except for the "romantic stroll" along Jalan BB looking for Hubby's crocs. Yes, he has one too! I've converted him to a crocs lover too. (I honestly think I should be getting commission from crocs for this - haha!)

The evening we arrived, we took a walk around the hotel to locate where the important places are (read : swimming pool and playground). Got Jannah excited about going on the slides, as before this the only slide she's ever known is the one at home.

Malam tu had dinner at Ken.ny Ro.gers. And if you know BTS, you would know that to get to the restaurant you'd have to pass the Cosmo's World. And Aliah was all jaw dropping excited about it, she got more excited when we told her we'll be coming back here again tomorrow. Hehehe..

So early next morning, we went. And how dissappointed we were when we found out it would only open at 12pm. Adoi laa.. Pointless mall browsing is dangerous! It could lead to unnecessary shopping, which it did. *sigh* But, I am happy to report that Aliah's Dora's Dollhouse now is complete!

Anyway, tepat pukul 12 we were the 1st visitor to the park for the day. Haha! Aliah had fun with all the rides. ALL. She was brave to go on it by herself, and went again and again on her favourite ones. She's such a big girl now. Jannah however got monyok in there. She does not like loud noises. She does not like big crowds. And she was being extra clingy. Ah well..

That evening, we went swimming. And the big girl who's a big fan of the pool had no qualms whatsoever about going to the adult's pool. The little girl however, took 20 minutes to dip her feet in the pool, another 10 minutes before she decided she would splash the water, and another 15 before I could have her entirely in the pool. *sigh* But yayyy I did get her in. An achievement itself. Hah, lepas tu tak nak keluar pulak dah!

We had room service that night, and the food did not disappoint. Yummeh!

Next morning, had another pool dip. At least Jannah took only 15 minutes before she got comfortable anndddd we even manage to put her in her float! Yeahhh! But it got cold really fast even though it was almost 11am. That's one thing I don't like about pools up on 15th floor.

Kemas2, siap2 and we left.

All in all, I'd say it was a good short getaway. The kids had fun which was the whole point of the getaway, we got to run away from our normal routine albeit for a bit.

Can't wait for our October honeymoon. Haha!

I Promise

I promise to catch up on blogging today.

Righhttt!!

It's the 21st (Happy Birthday Uda!) and I only have 1 post only. One miserable post. ONE! Tsk! Pathetic.

Anyway, right now the kids are all in Du.ta Vis.ta. Mama & Papa booked an apartment there for a whole week. Hoping to get some pool time for the kids, but the pool was / is apparently a disappointment. So, we've been there on/off. Yesterday they went to MV and had fun at the Mega.Kidz. The 2 elder cousins got to watch Wall-e with Schey & Lila. And today they'll be going to the tamans around Lake Garden - if the rain stops.

This weekend will be another busy weekend with weddings.

And next week dah start puasa.

*sigh* time sure flies..

p/s : gambar tiada kena mengena dengan cerita. :D

The View

Looking out this window, I get to see the old Pudu Jail. And the 2 stadiums and a whole lot of other skyscrappers in KL.

We can't get away far, so KL is good enough I guess. Plus, it's free of course. Tehehe..

The kids are of main concern and they seem to be having the most fun.

Will update when we get back to our normal daily routine.

Monday Morning Blues

Dah lama tak membebel. Aku rasa masa puasa tak kira la if dlm Ramadhan ke luar Ramadhan pon, you are tested to the extreme. Like for example this morning. There were at least 5 idiots on the road who either think (1) they are the only ones who pay road tax (2) everyone else should move out of their way just because they are late (3) just because they give a signal they can jump into your lane. Terus tinggal 50% je pahala puasa aku. Tuh aku dah bawak keter besar bapak dah tu. Kalau bawak kete kecik aku tatau lah. And *sigh* the Ria got scratched too. By a motorbike. At the traffic light in Brick.fields. Tapi at least he had the courtesy to apologize. So yeah, not a good start to a Monday morning.

*sigh*

And here it is..

We finally got her. (I don't know why, but I think of it as a "her" - probably because she looks regal kot) And so far we are loving it! I AM loving it! The kids love it too. Jannah's a bit overwhelmed by the bigness of it, but she seems to have adapted. What I love most apart from the fact that it uses NGV, is how big ass it is! I can walk dari depan sampai belakang with ease! All the space, all the comfort. ~nice~ The NGV, max skali isi is around RM10, and it goes for about 140km. Sangat best! Can't wait for the NGV pump at the Pet.ro.nas depan rumah to open.
