A trip to the City of Cats (Part 1)

The year end trip to Kuching had been in mind for some time since we were to attend a cousin's wedding in Sri Aman end of November. Just an additional 3 hours on the road will bring us to a more vibrant city with more things to see, and more malls to do shopping, so why not? But it nearly came to a halt when mommy got a new job with Curtin, where Trimester started in the first week of December.

After contemplating on the disappointment that's sure to come from the girls, we decided to go ahead, and mommy will just report duty on the 2nd week, no big deal! We stayed at our friends' house for 4 nights, and it proved to be a great time for both the adults and kids!

Day 1: Matang Wildlife Centre

The weather had been good - cloudy most of the time with slight drizzle. Gab enjoyed the visit the most as he got to see animals. Aman, the orangutan, was very friendly. He knew that we wanted to take his photo, so he came closer to us and stayed there for a long time. The visit was like a stroll in the forest with some animals to see along the path.










Day 2: Kuching Waterfront

Our actual plan for Day 2 was Samariang Water Park, but a brief check on the website showed that it was closed on Tuesday. Now, brief here really meant brief, like a glimpse. The fact is, it is OPEN EVERYDAY during school holidays!!! And we only realized it when we were physically there two days later...

Never mind, there was no fixed schedule for our trip. So, we took a stroll at waterfront around noon time. Don't worry, it was cloudy again, haha! Gab mimicked our pose with DUN Sarawak, and he again enjoyed the "run" on the bridge. There weren't many solo photos of Sarah because she was in one of her moody moods again, sigh... And this time it was because Gab snatched her sunglasses...










Travelling with small kids, our trip had been free and easy, leisure and lazy. There's no hurry, no rushing to the next destination. I think we all like it!

七岁了!

小娃七岁了!
盼了许久的生日,终于来到了!




小娃表面上只跟我提了一个要求,
就是要在主日学里跟小朋友们一起庆祝。
妈咪我想,这很简单啊!
殊不知,原来她还有一系列的生日计划。

自己邀请了表妹们来她的生日派对,
我竟然不知情!
好吧!既然她已经邀请了,
我们总动员帮她张罗一个迷你 party。

外公搞 BBQ,
外婆煮鸡汤面线,
妈咪弄一两道简单菜肴,
加上淡得无味的芒果菜燕,
小型迷你 birthday party 就这样上场啦!














礼物方面,
就让她自由在 Mr DIY 里花20块钱,
买她喜欢的东西。













爸爸请她吃冰激淋,
妈咪给她10块钱买吃的,
结果她最后选了两个棒棒糖,
一个给弟弟,一个自己吃。
剩下的钱,她后来 redeem 了她梦寐以求的 yogu。













妹妹/angubee,生日快乐快乐啊!
妈咪希望你健健康康,快快乐乐地长大。
永远保持着善良体贴的心,甜美的笑容,
你将会是一颗闪亮的星星!
我们爱你哦!
