Rather Quiet

First day of school holidays today. As usual, the traffic going into work was predictably lighter than normal. That was great. Rather than spending almost 45 minutes in my journey into UMMC, it was only 25 minutes today. It would have been faster if it was not for AZRB still messing about with the fly-over on Jalan Duta leading into the new Istana Negara. It was supposed to be ready before the end of 2010. It was now close to June. It looked like it would take at least another couple of months before everything sorted out. But I digress.

The main Suria KLCC foyerMy boys running around the hallway at Alpha Angle. As I said, it was rather empty.Heading back home in the afternoon, I stopped at KLCC to deposit some cheques. I was expecting the crowd to be bigger there, but instead, it was surprisingly quiet. Later, when I went out to do the groceries, Jaya Jusco at Alpha Angle, it was quiet there as well. Maybe everybody took the opportunity to head back to kampung. This must be what KL was like back in the 80s. Traffic was much lighter, and the pace of life would have been much more manageable.

A day to Recuperate

Got to kill some insects tonight .....Irfan has been unwell all day although he was much better by the afternoon. When he woke this morning, he vomited a couple of times, and again after given his medicine. He did develop temperature after lunch. I took him for a nap and he was much better when he woke up. We ended up spending the day in the house.

However, we had to some groceries in the evening and as he was keen to go out, we took him to Jaya Jusco. Had some fish and chips for dinner and he was running around by then. He was just yelling around when we told him it was time for his medicine again. After some prodding, he agreed.

We did notice when we were at JJ that the air conditioning was switched off. It was hot and balmy. When we asked the cashier, she said, "biasalah, Boss Cina. Sekarang Raya Cina. Cina tak ada datang. Bangsa lain saja. Tak payah la bukak air cond." Maybe it was tongue-in-cheek but I wonder if there is some truth in that exchange. Time to get the boys to bed again now …..
