More Kenduri Photos

Anita had been very happy. Everything went according to plan and with the maids helping her out, she was able to take it easy in the evening after all was done.

In fact she was watching Cinderella on TV at the moment. Idlan on the other hand asked it I could take him to 7-Eleven as he ran out of junk food. He could do with some sugar rush after all the excitement of today.

As for the photos, it turned out that Idlan wanted me to be with him during the khatam ceremony as he was anxious with people around. He didn't like to be the centre of attention.

So, the number of photos were less than I expected but Anita wanted plenty of snaps. It was the first time we had any sort of event at the apartment.

Kenduri Done

Alhamdulillah. The event ran smoothly and Idlan did his reading, although he was anxious all through out the event. He was happy to get it over and done with.

He got bored during the Yaseen reading as his feet were aching and he asked to sit beside me. The ceremony was almost done by then. I ended up not being able to take much photos as Idlan asked me to stay near him during the event. He was really nervous.

We spent the rest on the afternoon eating after that and Syahril stayed until after his daughter taken a nap before going home.

All in all, everybody had fun. Idlan was relieved afterwards and asked me to take him to watch Star Wars. That would have to wait until tomorrow I was afraid. I wanted to spent the rest of the day at home with the guests.

Good thing that my Mum's maid would be staying overnight tonight as there were plenty of cleaning needed to be done. I had only about fourth hours sleep last night despite it being post-call and I think I might just doze off early soon.

All Set

Started the ward round really early this morning. It was going to be a big afternoon forward Idlan. We were having a ceremony to celebrate his completion of the Quran, his khatam.

He had been practicing all week and hopefully he wouldn't freak out at the event. Anita had been busy preparing and I did my part in making sure the ward were sorted out early on. Hopefully there wouldn't be many calls coming in.

Another role I would be taking would be being the photographer. So, all the tools were sorted and charged. X-T1 with the 10-24 zoom, X-Pro1 with the 35 f1.4 and the A7R mark II with the 90 macro attached.

Here we go!

All Them Photos

One of the pain of coming back from the holiday was going through the photo's taken during the trip and trying to sort, edit and then post them. And by a lot, I meant for the Fraser's Hill trip alone, I must've taken something like 600 snaps.

Of course, not all of those needed to be edited in the end. Some were duplicates or downright ugly snaps. But most made the cut.

It had been a week, and I was till only halfway through them. With tomorrow's event, it looked like there would be a ton more to process afterwards!

The Final Morning

The weather was the best on the final morning before we departed as if it knew that we were leaving. Reluctantly, we had to pack. The boys were still asleep and missed breakfast. My father-in-law was at the TV watching the UMNO Meeting.

And I took a stroll around the hotel, this time taking just my iPhone to take videos. We planned to leave just after lunch, and should reach KL by 3 pm. We would be going straight to the apartment after leaving my in-laws since the boys were desperate for wifi and Wii U. Kids this days ....

Nice morning sunBye bye room ...I would be going through the tons of images which I had taken during the stay. Hopefully would have time to update the blog further before I start working this weekend.
