3rd Day of Raya 2005

The previous night, after the welcome back party, the kids decided that they were not going to sleep because of jet lag. It has affected the first few precious days of our stay in Malaysia. As there is no known remedy for it since it is caused by disruption of your children's body clock, then I had no choice but to let them stayed up until 4.30 am.

But it was a great time for little Sarah to explore Tok and Nanny's house. She saw a lizard for the first time in her life! The sound it made excite her very much. There were also ants and kupu-kupu (moth) as well. All these were enough to amuse Sarah all night.

When it was normal morning wake up time, both children and me were fast asleep!

I woke up eventually feeling partly guilty for wasting the precious time in Malaysia and partly it was not so polite doing so at your in laws house.

Ikmal came over with his sister Mazidah. He looked pleasant in his white baju melayu top. And Mazidah, sooo elegant in her black baju kurung. I like her baju kurung so much!! Ikmal said that his wife, Hanis was coming home (from London) for raya in two weeks time too. How nice....

When the children were awake, (that was around noon time) we went to my grandma's house (see photo above) and also managed to visit a few relatives of mine. It was such a lovely feeling to meet them on hari raya and especially after being away for a few years.

Later, we went to A&W!! On 3rd day of raya???? Hehehe, that was just an excuse to take Sarah to an indoor playground but the truth was, I miss curly fries so much.
