My Boy, Kevin

Hello I'm back, again, haha ... I really hope to keep on posting in this blog and not get lazy. Ok I will try!

Just want to shout out to my boy, Kevin Pek.

He passed his driving test yesterday. I'm so proud of him. He was really nervous the night before but I told him to be confident of himself that he can do it and he did it! Now he can zip around in a four wheel vehicle.

His SPM trials will be starting soon and really hope he will do his best and make us all proud. But he has improved a lot and I see him doing his home work / revision every night.

Go Kevin Go !!!

Looking forward to our trip to Bangkok end of the month. Will try to blog about it :)

I never knew Hua Hin has so much to offer but we only have one night there but anyway, if it is that good, we shall be back with the whole family .... sawadee ka !!!

Durianlicious

Kimberly went for a 3D/2N trip to Melaka with her college buddies during their sem break. Of course they went to Jonker street and they even made a trip to the famous Mille Crepe, Nadeje. Been a long since we went there .... the last time was during Jo's wedding last but that was just for her wedding and no sight seeing.

But the most attractive thing to Kimberly was the durian puff. She chatted with me if I wanted any durian puff " You must put the whole puff into your mouth and ohhh ahhh hmmm .... taste heavenly !!!". This daughter of mine is the BIGGEST durian fan !!! She loves everything that has durian in it !!! So I asked her to buy 2 boxes home, RM20 for a box of 18 pcs. That's not too bad, quite a good price.

Daddy, baby, kevin and grandpa all tasted and said yes it is really tasty indeed but boohoo..... I dare not eat yet (due to my surgery) , so cannot get to taste how delicious the puff were .....

Cheap cheap cheep cheep .... MATTA Fair

We drove to PWTC on Sunday, the last day of the fair ... but the police closed the road in front of PWTC because there were too many cars .... who said the economy is no good !!!

Is it that cheap cheap ... well on the surface, yes, but during booking, yet to know ....

Hwajing was offering the following:

3 days / 2 nights in Phuket Free & Easy (c/w rooms, transfers, breakfast & half day city tour),
4 days / 3 nights Guilin Tour (c/w rooms, transfers, all meals and sightseeing tour) and
5 days/ 4 nights Hangzhou/Shanghai Tour (c/w rooms, transfers, most meals and sightseeing tour)

ALL THIS FOR RM 499 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! only for the 1st 300 pax and it is transferable too! Meaning if you only use Phuket and you want to give your parents to go to Guilin and your sister to Hangzhou .... also can!!!

I say this is damn cheappppppppppppppppp but travel period is fro 15 Sep 2009 till 30 Aug 2010. So means they take your cash first and roll but I still say it's cheap cheap. When I enquired, the sales person told me that the 1st 300 already sold, so the price increased to RM 599.00 .... still cheap cheap !!! So they took in cash RM 150,000.00 for this package alone ... how about the other packages they were offering ...

But anyway .... we met some interesting characters all the way from Dreamworld, Gold Coast and Kristin had the "Best Day Ever ...." if you know Spongebob's song ...

HK Disneyland ...

Planning a trip there with the kids ... but dont know when yet ...

HK Disneyland has a competition for all their travel agents. They sent them a set of promos items like stickers, picture etc for them to put up in their offices and the best deco will win some prizes. They had the dinner at Mandarin Oriental last Friday and Frank brought home some door gift which included this box of yummy star shape milk chocolate which cost HK$50.00. There are lots of cute cute mickey and minnie stationeries too ...

Koh Samui here we come ....

Yeah!!! Finally booked our tickets with Firefly at the MITM Travel Fare on 15.08.08 @ PWTC. All fares were going for RM 3.00 per way and including taxes etc we had to pay RM 342.00 per person all in as compared if we were to book online it is about RM600.00 per person.

I told Dragon and Kenny about this Firely promo and asked if they wanted to join us for this trip and you know what ??? Kenny and Leon will be coming along ...yipeee !!! Kenny went and book on Sunday.

Anyway, Firefly will be having another promo at the MATTA Fair on 5-7 Sept and I think prolly they will have this promo price ... so it's still not too late yet.

Now we are looking for an affordable and convenient hotel for Kenny & Leon and for our 3rd night. And also looking at all the day tours available in the island. Found one which cost about RM 170/person, whole day tour from 9.00am - 6.00pm ... looks very interesting and it should cover most of the attractions there.

Anyone else interested to join us ....... :)
