Another Turn

It turned out there were two parts to the Melawati Bazaar Ramadan. We went to the first part, and today, we found out that there was another. But did it make any difference? Not really.

The second part was well away from the main road, and seemed to be less crowded. The area was also more specious, but unfortunately it didn't offer anything different to the first part. I still couldn't get my fix of cucur udang or proper air asam boi! Still not as good as past year.

We decided to get our iftar stuff from a restaurant today, after finding some kuih at the bazaar. So, happy iftar all ......

Back in KL

Made it back to Gombak, via Taman Melawati for a spot of take-out. Anita was too tired to cook after the long journey. Traffic was light and it took just under three hours from JPO to the Sg Besi toll. Traffic into KL was also easy.

Just finished unpacking and trying to convince the boys to hot the showers. Next would be dinner, before a spot of television later tonight. Will also be unloading my photos from the camera. Will do the sorting and editing tomorrow I guess. Needing some rest. Work tomorrow. School for the boys Tuesday.

More of the Pasar Ramadan Shoot

Certainly a single entry for the Pasar Ramadan would never be enough especially when trying out a new gear. Therefore, here were the rest .... while the first part can be found here.

Afternoon Wedding

It was a pleasant wedding I attended yesterday lunchtime. It was also the first time that I attended the venue, at Taman Melawati.

The bride is our next door neighbour in Gombak, and Anita knew her since they were in school. She was married before, and her only daughter was born within a couple of weeks of Idlan. Unfortunately, a few months after that, she was separated, and a messy divorce ensued. It was only finalised recently, paving the way for the wedding.

The wedding itself was a very cosy affair, with the family members organising almost everything, except the cooking I supposed. The bride's brother was the emcee, and he certainly stole the show. Everything was straight forward, and was done on time.

The bride was certainly happy yesterday, and so were we, knowing what she had gone through. So, many congratulations to our dear neighbour. To the bride .....

To the Paediatrician

Idlan still had a temperature this morning although he himself was feeling much better. Anita was concerned enough that she wanted to take him to see his Paediatrician.

That would mean a drive to Pantai. Since it was already late morning, we might as well set off a bit later and try to get an early afternoon appointment. After all, it was Ramadhan. So there should not be much of a lunch break.
