the road trip

what i like most about this trip is that, it's like a road trip. And I get to ride drive with the boys (my hubby, father and uncle - 4 cars altogether). first time for blossmobile - to go to KL, u know.. =D


and for the rest of the trip, u'll see him in this hat +- the hair


Actually, it was suppose to be a trip to PD aje. But because cik alin is free on sat, we left for our 'holidays' early.

So, first to KL for one night stay. Sampai aje KL, pegi KLCC for lunch kat Signature food court. Then, checked in hotel, where the children terus nak gi swimming. Cik alin, cik nyah, yati n myself, we went to masjid india and got all the intended materials- we're happy. Mission accomplished.



Went back to the hotel, to get the guys and children. Then went to have dinner and walk2 kat bt bintang.



Next day, after resting/packing in the morning, we checked out and went to eye on malaysia. (that 'eye' could be a verb also eh..)

The last time i was there with the big girls, that thing only went 3 rounds. But this time.. dah 6 rounds. Rus, dia takut sangat2. every time the cabin passed the boarding bay, she gestured frantically to the boy to open the door and let her out. The boy just smiled at her. She said, she will never take the ferris wheel ever again - even if she was given a million - rupiah OR dollars.


boys aksen cool.. especially As.. dalam hati, Allah saja yg tahu.


Lepas tu, we headed to mid valley for lunch, but not before hubby lead us, keliling kota. (read: made the wrong turn)

Masa kat mid valley tu.. we felt like da lama kita kat KL and it's like we're heading back. Then we realise, that we're actually not heading home.. but to PD. The holiday was not over, rupanyer..

We were in Port Dickson for 2 nights. Last year, when I was there, (which by the way, happens to be on the exact same date! betul gua cakap sama lu!! tak caya tengok kat my multiply), we stayed kat water chalet. This time, kat Garden chalet. Bit cheaper. Other than the fact that water chalet is on the water and garden chalet is on land.. i think the room is quite comparable. oh and of course.. on the water chalet, you can hear the waves, which can be quite soothing..and have the open air bathroom.


maryam got chucky and lepas tu.. tak lepas. only RM10- good buy.



On the 2nd night, we went to have seafood, at a place where we could see the sun before it sets.



Finally on Sunday, we checked out, and decided to go to Mahkota Parade for lunch and a little shopping before heading back home.

Kitorang ikut jalan kampung, and managed to stop over by the roadside, to buy goreng pisang (which, dearest hart, we missed the one u recommended, cause hubby took a different turn, on the way to PD :( ... )



Cik alin said, the durian cendol there is to die for. (ok lah.. she didn't say 'to die for', to be exact, she said.. 'fooh.. sedap betul...' and made that facial expression indicating that it's so damn delicious).

I think one day, we can have day trips to Melaka just to try the durian cendol there.. ok?

Oh and i got a very nice melaka t shirt, that I noticed maryam pakai. She got it, in the previous melaka trip.

Ok, ni sikit promotional video, untuk kedai souvenir kat luar mahkota parade tu.


On the way back, sempat jugak call my tailor, to meet us at JB and dropped off all our materials with her.

I must say, this trip was very fruitful and I wish i don't have to work and can do this every few weeks or months.

and i love driving, especially through kampung areas in the day.. i love.
