Settling In

We finally settled into our hotel for the weekend after a rough drive up the hill. A fully loaded Estima with a couple of screaming kids at the back! By the time we reached the top, both of them were fast asleep, which was a blessing. But unfortunately, they mustered the energy to cause havoc all night!

Dinner was nice - we had it at the hotel. But compared to what it was a couple of years ago, it was much better back then. The rooms at Ye Olde Smokehouse had gone some internal renovations, sim pretty much of the utilities were new. We booked a room with a bunker bed - and I think you'd figured out by now who would be using that. It was a nice cosy suite, right net to the main hall. So going for dinner and breakfast was just practically outside our door.

As the hotel just managed to sort out the wifi, I only just managed to blog. The Edge signals were pretty sketchy, so, I would be at the mercy of the wifi network. Will blog later ....

More on the Fraser's Hill stay here.

Where for Dinner?

So, today's clinic was done extra early and I sorted the ward well in advance before returning home in holiday mood. Planning to take the boys out for dinner later but was not sure yet of the venue. Irfan was already jumping up and down looking forward to tomorrow. Anita had bought them some new jumpers for the trip. Hopefully the weather would be nice and crisp up the hill.

For this evening, I'd better ask the boys where they wanted to have dinner. I wouldn't mind going out to the Curve actually.

Feeling Lazy

Now that I was winding down before going on a break tomorrow, I felt really lazy. Luckily, I have not that many patients left in the ward although there were a couple of admissions this morning, which will be discharged tomorrow. I also have some paperwork to sort out by tomorrow morning, so I thought I might as well get on with things.

The weather outside was also very nice, making me kind of depressed having to stay in. I wish that the weather would be just as nice tomorrow morning when we set off to Fraser's Hill. In the meantime, I better get on with the job ...

The Third Dinner

So, tonight was the third dinner I had for my birthday. And this time it was just me and Puan Anita. She was fasting today, so we went straight to KLCC after I reached home from work and had dinner at Spice of India.

This was followed by a spot I shopping as she needed to get some thick clothes for the boys for this weekend's trip up Fraser's Hill. The worry she had - she always worry - today was her brother having a cough and slight fever. She tended to pick up from him, an her brother had only returned last weekend after being away in Dubai. Getting a cold would really spoil the weekend for her. Hopefully she wouldn't.

It looked like it would e a full week for me next week. After the Fraser's Hill trip, I planned to join my Mum in Sungai Petani and Penang. Then to return to KL in time for the first day of Ramahan. And of course to enjoy the Pasar Ramadhan ..... Give me food .....

Rain and the Slow Internet

It had been raining all morning and even Puan Anita called to say that it was wet in Gombak and she had a nice nap after sending the boys to school. Lucky her. As it was today, on a slow Wednesday morning, I would go the apartment after having a quick breakfast in Bangsar. It was chucking down there and I was held up at the restaurant for a good half an hour. Not that I was complaining.

After the rain subsided, I drove to the apartment, and soon after, it started to rain again. And another thing I noticed. I heard that in the US, the FBI was implementing some feature to block Internet to sites known to harbor pirated documents and files. My internet had been damn slow all morning. Not sure if that had anything to do with what was happening in the States, but I was using the Time fiber connection. The usual speed was around 24 Gb. And it was sluggish.

Hopefully it was just a glitch. Time to get ready for the afternoon clinic soon, but it would have been nice to be able to takes nap before that ...... No chance.
