Checked in

We finally arrived at the hotel around quarter to 3 in the afternoon. Making only one stop for food at Gua Musang, everybody was hungry by the time we reached Kota Bharu. I went straight to some nasi lemak we prepared in the morning.

The plan was to head out for some snack in late afternoon, but Anita was asleep by the time I was ready to hear out. Poor girl need a nap. It wasn't the smoothest of journey just now. I drove to Gua Musang before leaving it to the driver. He was gunning down the throttle all the way.

Off to the roomGetting cosyThe boys were already settled in and had both had their bath - they started the journey sans shower. BoboBoi on TV, so they were occupied all afternoon. As for me, I could do with a nap but decided otherwise. I prefer an early night later.

Will blog later when we were more settled. Dinner with the relatives tonight.

Outbound

We managed to set off by 6. Well, more like half past six. Quick stop for petrol and we were off. The plan was to drive to Bentong and then Gua Musang. Hopefully it was well before lunch when we reach Gua Musang.

Traffic has been light so far but it was still early doors. I wasn't doing the driving, but I had to stay awake since our driver was hopeless with directions. Need to make sure that he took the right turn .....

Filling up before setting offTraffic was still light in the early hoursPit stopIt was getting crowdedIf everything goes according to plan, we would be staying in Kota Bharu until Wednesday while my mother-in-law would be returning on Friday.

We booked a room at the recently refurbished Perdana Hotel. Let's hope that the place lived up to its billing ..... Onwards!

All Work

Getting them to do their task was rather difficult. But we had no choice since we had to get their homework sorted out by tomorrow as we would be leaving early Sunday.

No outing tonight. It was all work. We didn't even managed to start our packing yet. So, long night tonight. And an even longer day tomorrow!

Plan Back on Track

The boys were feeling much better and Anita had managed to get their projects under control. This meant that the Kelantan trip would be on this weekend.

There was however a slight change in the plan. Instead of leaving on the Monday, we planned to set off in the early hours of Sunday morning instead. We would also be coming back a day earlier, on the Wednesday.

We were expecting a long journey this Sunday. Traffic would be bad. So, we will be setting off by 6 am. At least that was the plan ..... Good luck to us!

Updating a Pain

I went through my blog entries during my travel and felt that I'd better put everything in a proper link pages. And when doing that, there were gaps and some entries which had yet to be uploaded onto the server.

So, for the last couple of days, I have been frantically uploading those entries as well as uploading the slideshows from my SmugMug site. Those took some doing, and I still got a few which needed sorting up. And then, work got in the way and after getting the calls out of the way, I should have some free time this weekend.

I would need to get all the entries for the Kyoto and Lugano trips in sequence and put them into a neat link page. Hmmmmm ..... Hive me anoyher couple of days.
