Time for some Morning Snaps

There were not that many flowers this time around. Maybe it had something to do with this being December. But still there were a few blossoms to enjoy.

I spent the morning walking around the hotel compound and the road downhill from it. Just around the corner, there was a small playground and barbecue area which was opened to the public. The weather was very changeable. It was sunny one minute and cloudy the next. And with the breeze, you could feel the chill. Best to wear a jumper or a coat.

With the hotel having a renovation, there was not much attention being put on the garden. Hopefully the renovation would bring something good for the years to come.

Not a Good Idea

I was awaken by a phone call in the early hours this morning and couldn't get back to bed straight away. Then I remembered, United were playing Stoke. Switched the TV on and before I knew it, the whole game was done.

Luckily I didn't have a morning clinic but I would be in zombieland all day I was sure. Cue the coffee. At least United won ....

Botani Perdana

It had been a while since we went to the park. We hated going there mainly due to the traffic situation, often not finding a proper spot to park not to mention the aggro when there were a small lane opening while you were trying to pass.

The old Botanical Gardens, Lake Garden or Tasik Perdana has now been renamed Taman Botani Perdana. A lot of new infrastructure were being built, making the whole area - the Bird Park, Butterfly Gardens and Orchid Park seems more connected.

So, we parked there and walked across to the new area of the park where Panggung Anniversary used to be - there were renovations being done on the pavilion at the moment.

It was right pleasant and the place, being a Sunday afternoon was filled with joggers, cyclist and young families, some carrying picnic baskets and playing football.

Pleasant weather and fresh air. We stopped for photos, quick drinks and fed the koi fish when we reached the lake, white people were running around having a good time.

Next stop, the lakeFeeding them turtles ...The crowd soon build up ....Ironic that people playing football by the sign ....Anita wished that she carried her picnic basket with her. But there were plenty enough seat for us to sit and have some ice cream while enjoying the surrounding.

The hard part was walking back to the car park - uphill mind - rushing there before sunset. But I must say we were pleasantly surprised with the day out and would definitely be coming again.

Aku Bapak Kau!

A rather witty twist to the legendary tagline "I am your father". Found this T-shirt a couple of weekend back while I was at Great Eastern Mall sold at a stall by the main foyer. They do selection of those, with the current monthly flavour being Star Wars.

I decided to go with this one though. The company was worth plugging for, where you could find more about them at onenationfitsall.com.

Quiet Start

I was sure things would get hectic soon enough but it had been quiet this morning. With the CNY around the corner and KL celebrating Hari Wilayah - SJMC is in Selangor hence no holiday - things were certainly quite.

I only have a clinic this afternoon and after sorting out my ward round this morning it wasn't even 10 am yet. I have some business to sort out at the bank and Anita was at home. Maybe I should take her for breakfast...
