The majestic-looking lady late in the evening

Another trip that was almost forgotten because the flight ticket was bought soo much earlier. I think before Aidilfitri last year...luckily date tak clash ngan other event.

Yang kelakarnya, masa beli tiket mcm excited gila nak gi KK tapi makin dekat hari rasa agak kureng excitednya sbb bajet ngam2 hahaha. Tau je la kan kalau renovate rumah abih segala tabung ayam tabung gajah kena korek...bukan takde langsung cuma kena ada buffer la kan for emergency. Untouchable fund.

Tapi..apa kes nak waste the cheap ticket kan ? So the traveler-in-me only woke up about 1 week before the departure. Time tu la kelam kabut nak google mana nak pegi, sib baik awal2 dh baca blog Dd and dah tanya dia sikit2 before. Thanx babe

That was roughly how it went. When traveling with kids you gotta be flexible to accomodate their mood. When they are tired, they are tired. Always be prepared to revise your journey and don't feel obliged to go to places just because other people said it is a must-go-places. It's your journey..

It's not hard to get her to do breakfast, she loves breakfast

With that, we can proudly declare that we had been to all the local destinations, at least their main cities.

But we'll definetly be back for another 2 trips. To spend our time relaxing in Karambuna1 and the last to lepak in Manukan Res0rt so that babah can go crazy diving with the sharks and whateva creatures while me can stroll the beach in my bikini wakakaka...

Until next entry...red wedges checking out..........
