Port Dickson Trip..Pembuka Tirai 2020

Assalam all. Happy new year..and happy chinese new year! Our January is doing quite fine as of now. Battling with new tasks, new routine and new commitments, we prayed for a much more prosperous year ahead! We just came back from Kelantan yesterday, but that maybe will be dued for another entry..

The Grand Beach Resort PD 

So.. we tried to squeezed out some time to fit in a short unplanned staycation to Port Dickson on new year's eve. The Grand Beach Hotel. The only thing i can say is the location is a wow. All others were a turndown and it is such a waste for such a beautifully structured hotel to have such a poor maintenance system. Even the corridors were shabby. But nevertheless we had an enjoyable stay. We enjoyed the beach, the sunset and the pool. So alhmdulillah ala kulli hal. For the price i paid (RM160ish for a PH rate), i could scarce out a 2 star for you :)

Enjoy the pics taken around the beach resort. The private beach was where the 2stars came from. Well as long as the boys are happy enough!

All tall and slanky now. Age 8 and 9 this year.

Goodmorning stroll! Before the boys waked up. We opt for now breakfast and found alot of nasilemak stalls nearby!

Enjoying the rest of the morning before check out

The RAMD Museum Port Dickson

Post checked out, we head straight to get a glimpse of the Rejimen Askar Melayu Diraja (Royal Army) Museum nearby. It was our first time there, and i give my 5 thumbs up recommendation for you to come visit this museum. All entrance are free and they have lots of educational stuff inside that might open some insights for you. 

There is even an underground komunis tunnel (replica) that you could go in to experience the feeling of being in a komunis tunnel. But i dont recommend this for those with claustrophobia and asthma due the confined and congested tunneling. In addition to all the helis, planes and army tankers, the is a suspended bridge at the garden area at the back of the museum. There is also a cafe selling drinks and food owned by an ex army near to the entrance. a lot could be improved still, such as souvenirs to generate income and such on, but the visit is still worth it. The boys really enjoyed it so much.

Well, we had a good time alhmdulillah. A good opening to a good decade inshallah.

Till then

Reunion Gundalerz 2019! Gold Coast Morib Trip

Hi guys!!

This all happened early March around 2 months ago.. it took me like forever to update it here, but i guess this event should be remembered by us all and pinned here for the family momento! So here it is. I think its best to do less of writing and more pictures talking for themselves. 

We of course had a blast! The kids aka my waterbabies..really enjoyed any trips involving waterparks! Ah yes..they're growing up too soon that they need new bathing suits by now.. Me, alhmdulillah it was such a bliss to have the people i knew since i was 13 around me. Everybody seems not to age.really..except yours truly..haha

Pictures are not in correct order of events..Nevertheless -Enjoy!

Splash!!

The brave Mikhail!

Battery recharging mode!

Our Kuala Terengganu Trip 2017 - A TB!

Cerita lama ni..dah 2bln delay. Tapi xpe kita update juga utk kenangan kita di kemudian hari. Cuti sekolah hujung thn lps, we had a short trip to Terengganu n Kelantan. Sebenarnya lebih kepada teman my mom nk hadir juga kenduri kazen kami yang berlangsung di Kuala Terengganu. My dad pula out of town (out of the country actually) at that time, so kitorg pun setuju teman kan mak ke Terengganu. Comel sgt mak siap janji nk sponsor semua dgn syarat kami semua pergi :)

Mak kan org kuat Mara, so dpt privilege sewa rumah rehat mara Terengganu. Mmg syok sgt dpt rumah comel lote 2bedrooms kat tgh2 bandar kuala terengganu :) Alhmdulillah. Two nights costed her dlm RM100 kot homestay ni. Amenities semua cukup alhmdulillah tp kami mmg byk mkn diluar, xde plan masak memasak pun :)

Day 1 : We travelled on Saturday early morning from Kl-KT 5am smpai di KT circa 11.30am sebab nk follow rombongan pengantin baru menghantar pengantin :) Jumpa my cousins, uncles and auntiy all the way from Kedah disini. Kumpul di TH Hotal KT seblum ke tempat bersanding. 

Kami dah sampai from KL! :)

The Big Family menghantar pengantin! This is only half of us all (3generations, ok 4 with our always young tok su in yellow shirt)

Ramai masa ni meriah betul..tp biasalah baru nk warm up nk bertanya itu ini..dh terpisah balik. Majority of my cuzzies on my mom's side cikgu cikgi belaka, so they took the opportunity to get some cuti cuti malaysia bersempena cuti sekolah pnjg as well..pengantin pun cikgu juga! Congrats Ain! More cucus for Njang okehh :)

Our small family. Superlove daddy's baju. Ala Jovian's design gitu.. Now my dad bagi terus kat dia dh :)

OK checked in KT Mara guesthouse, solat,rehat.. Alhmdulillah-Settle urusan utama.. jom kita p jalan jalan! Yeay. Petang kita g jalan jalan ambil angin area tebing sungai betul betul dpn the guesthouse. Jalan kaki pun sampai! Masa ni dah hampir nk maghrib, so sempat sekejap ajelah. Lepas maghrib lah kita smbung berjalan lg :)

Kuat angin muara Sg ni.. Sungai apa yeerrr...Sungai yang menjadikan bandor ini Kuala 

All in the pic..

That night kita jalan jalan Pantai Batu Burok not fan from the guesthouse. Happening juga sini with all the horserides, horse carriage and caravans etc. Ada boleh sewa bubbles and street food along the beach. We just had a good night stroll at the beach and had some ikan celup tepung at the beach as well. Semua bukan food hunters sgt so kita makan mana yang ada ajelah :)

Iman n Amsyar's first horse ride experience  :) A little pony sahaja for those below 10 yrs old

The boys keletihan. Battery flat. Morning in KL. Night in KT

Day 2 : Road trip to Kelate

The next day, mom requested for a short day trip to Kelantan. She insisted on visiting few relatives there to just complete our Pantai Timur visit. A bit special this time because we brought Mak together..the more the merrier! :)

Second pit stop : Rumah Ayah 6 my Uncle in Machang. Tnya khabar berita

Then quick brunch before singgah rumah one of Mak's uncle in Pangkal Meleret. No pic there pula

Then off we go to Pasir Mas! Hubsy's kampung. Dh alang alang ke Pantai Timur kan..kita singgah lah bertanya khabar berita :) Everybody was there..and we were lucky that the banjir water had just subsidued the night before. My MIL served us with a scrumptious line of Kelate delicacies. Tq ma for the hospitality. Mak brought for them Ubi Gadong we bought from the highway :)

Bidding us good bye!

Day 3 : Ronda ronda KT, Pasar Payang, Kg Losong and more of Pantai Batu Burok!

The next morning, we started our day really early with breakfast near the beach and a morning stroll. There is something special actually about Tganu beaches that makes you feel so happy and serene just by being there. The waves and the sands really make you feel refreshed again! Alhmdulillah!

Say Yay! To the sand and and beaches!!

One with you

Boys playing with sand as its December.So a big no no for sea dipping!

People i love!

Yups! Tidak selamat ya!!

Pasar Payang : The new look
