The Couplehood Journey of a Distort Soul....

Cameron Highland Family Holiday Part 2...

We decided to cut short our family trip to Cameron Highland as my mom is not feeling well due to the cold weather last night. I went with Eliza to Ringlet to buy our packed breakfast; roti canai, nasi lemak and meehoon goreng. We checked out by 10am and we plan to drive to Boh Plantation. The road going up to Boh Plantation @ Gunung Brinchang was quite scary indeed and then we realized that Boh Plantation is closed on Monday. We then decided to drive up to the Strawberry Farm; again a scary drive. And to our suprise the farm has ran out of strawberries due to Chinese New Year weekend. But we had fun taking funny pictures there. We then drove down to buy our fresh vegetables & fruits at the nearby market as well as dropped by Bharat Tea Plantations for scones. We reached Ipoh by 2pm and proceed to have lunch at Restoran Tasik Raban nearby Stadium Indera Mulia. We finally arrived in Taiping by 4.30pm; in need of a good rest :-)

Cameron Highland Family Holiday Part 1...

My sister manage to book Rumah Peranginan Persekutuan Bungalow in Cameron Highland for our family holiday; it was only RM100 per night. We started our journey to Taiping at 8am and arrive safely by 11am. My mom prepared home cooked lunch for all of us; just the right tonic to boost my energy for our drive to Cameron Highland from Taiping. We began our journey by 2.30pm and reached Rumah Peranginan Persekutuan by 4.30pm; a good 2 hours drive via Simpang Pulai. The bungalow is indeed huge and clean. Arief enjoys the company of his cousins; Ilyas and Irfan; and they enjoy playing all over the huge hall. We had our home cooked evening tea before heading out to Tanah Rata for Bharat Tea; no scones though as it was nearer their closing time. We ended up buying our dinner at Tanah Rata pasar malam; apam balik with fried mee, kuehteow and meehoon. We manage to watch Australian Open Final at the bungalow; congratulations to Nole for winning in 5 sets; the longest set in a Grand Slam Final :-)

Kuantan Day Trip @ Ameer Wedding...

We began our journey from Shah Alam by 9am; travelling with Eliza's parents to Kuantan. We decide to pit-stop at Temerloh R&R; waiting for Eliza's sister to arrive. We then continue our journey and we arrive at the wedding by 1pm. It was just nice as the bride & groom has not arrived yet. We were ushered to the main table inside and all of us thoroughly enjoy the feast. We started our journey back to Shah Alam by 3pm; stopping by Tanjung Lumpur to buy Keropok Lekor and Coconut Jelly. We arrived home by 6pm; tired but enjoy the delicious feast. In need of our rest as we will be travelling to Taiping & Cameron Highland tomorrow :-)

Emirates Trip 2012 - Part 1...

After days of deciding and contemplating, I finally booked my return flight to London via Malaysia Airlines on 8th until 12th March 2012. I will be going with Arsenal Football Club Supporters Malaysia members (20 of us) on this historical trip. This will be my first trip to Emirates Stadium to watch my beloved Arsenal playing against Newcastle. I didn't manage to visit the famous Highbury Stadium but I will visit Highbury Square. A big thank you to my lovely wife for pushing me to go on this trip and I will bring back Burberry thingy for you :-)

Lunch @ Alamanda...

We had our morning breakfast at the Executive lounge and I think we spend almost an hour there; it was so private and Arief enjoy watching the TV while having his cereal. We then went to Alamanda for lunch with Fadzli, Azura, baby Mikhail, Acik Nan & Acik Zakiah. We opted for the food court as we have fond memories there with Arief. Eliza had Ipoh Hor Fun while Arief ate nasi with chicken masak merah. I opted for sizzling chicken mushroom yee mee. We had a blast catching up with all of them and baby Mikhail is so cute with his chubby cheeks :-)

CPA & Marriot Putrajaya...

I finish my tennis session earlier as we had plans to visit CPA Open Day at Gardens; Eliza recently register for ASCPA and will do her first paper in early May; with 5 more papers and we target full completion by end 2014. This is part of our plans to work in Australia by 2015. We then went shopping at Mark's & Spencer, Eliza bought jeans and we bought gifts for the birthday celebration at Marriot Putrajaya today. We the drove to Marriot Putrajaya for the birthday gatherings. My friend Dref have booked a private room and all of us enjoy the massive buffet spread. We were supposed to suprise his wife upon their arrival but the wifes mistakenly waited by the lift and that is where they come out. But it was still a big suprise. Eliza & Arief went to our room at Marriot Putrajaya and I continue with my club meeting until 5pm (continue eating as well). We went down to the swimming pool by 6pm and Arief was so happy. He didn't play on the slides though but we did went into the big pool; and the best part it is a heated pool. Arief went up to our hotel room with Eliza by 7pm while I continue to laze by the pool with my friends. We went for our dinner at Restoran Mohd Chan Bangi but Arief fall asleep in the journey; tired from playing in the swimming pool. We decided to take-away nasi goreng cina for him and it was an excellent decision indeed as Arief woke up upon entering our hotel room and ate his dinner :-)
