last dah..b4 balik bergambar dulu depan hotel yg receptionistnya tak mesra rakyat sungguh tp kira ok sebab hotel dia sangat convenient.
tu la dia champs d' elysees. Ni area shopping2, tok ti kalu dtg paris musti la dia shopping kat sini gamaknyer sebab ada kedai louis vuitton besar gilos.
At last... after a very wet and floody July, here comes august with rays of sunshine on our windows. yes.. at last it feel like summer!
Though its been ages since i last do any updates, that doesnt mean that days passing by without anything significant. Last month, we went for a holiday trip to Paris/ disneyland. Rabak jugak poket makcik.. but then our kids love it so much it makes all the spending worthwhile. Disneyland is marvelous! but the queqe can be as horrendous... berejam wooo, beratur for some of the more famous ride like Dumbo. Yesss...nak naik dumbo punya lama nih beratur. If any of you ever plan to go, be prepared to spend at least 3 days over in disneyland, kitaorg tak sempat nak cover sumer in 2 days esp. with young children. Kejap, kejap nak aiskrim.. kejap kang pulak nak popcorn.. dah la harga aiskrim pun mahal gilos. Seketul yg kat sini cuma 60p, kat sana sampai 3 euro! Cuma yg bestnye, sebab buleh masak sendiri kat bilik hotel, we can prepare our own food so that we were fully packed dengan sandwich la, nasik goreng la.. tu pun we end up lapar jugak at the end of the day since we were making the most of the opening time. Disney park have 4 different 'lands'.With 3 'terlebih gula' kids and 'off and on' rainy days we can just covered 2 land in one day. Second day was spent in disney studio, tapi sebab kat disney studio attraction tak sebanyak disney park ( dia ada byk show..best jugak sebab adik sampai berdiri tepuk tangan, standing ovation tu...) kitaorg sempat pi lagi sekali disney park dan masuk lagi satu land (frontierland namanya). Tapi yg tu tak byk rides utk kanak2 kecil...jadi tak yah lama pun kat situ. masa first day tu yg byk rides utk anak2...agak bengkak jugak la beratur sebab kekadang ada baby besar mintak dukung!
And Paris.. is as beautiful as it was pictured. Oh, I found out that eiffel tower is just a 'not so gempak' structure when you're so close to it but then it look pretty impressive in the picture. Apa pun mmg lagi cantik la kalau nak dibandingkan dengan London. Cruising down the river provided us with great breathtaking views.. oohhh, romantik gitu.
Orang2 paris however is not as 'friendly and well concern' as the brits. So you cant expect them to give up their space in a busy train eventhough you're standing with a toddler hanging on to your legs... We did had a guy giving up his seat once, but i'm damn sure he's not 'parisian'. And the most important and crucially vital information, pickpocket is very sleek esp. in crowded areas. HUbby ku nyaris kehilangan pouch dia yg ada kitaorg punya passport, tiket train, tiket disneyland, tiket flight dan duit... phew, syukur pada Allah. Dalam pada pakai pouch tu kat pinggang bawah jaket pun masih boleh kena toreh.. thank God the pouch is made of leather so the cut doesnt get through. Tu pun tak sedar masa bila kena toreh, tau2 keesokkan nya nak pakai baru perasan. Ngeri...ngeri...
Apapun, mmg la seronok dpt berjalan dan lihat tempat org. After all, jauh berjalan luas pengalaman kan..kan.. thats why we had planned to 'jalan2' again end of this month. Oh, thats a story of another time....kess..kess... ni pegi belajor ke, pegi berjalan nih??
TO add up to all the excitement of the month, last saturday we went to sunderland. No, this time it was not a holiday trip but a retail theraphy trip instead. Sunderland tu tempat org melayu pi berebut2 beli pyrex. It was a 3 cars convoy with Sal, Gie, Fazlin & family. Huh..org melayu bila sampai time benda cam gini.. buleh terbeliak bijik mata omputeh tgk. Not to my surprise hari tu mmg penuh ngan family melayu jer, and not to my surprise again, they managed to show the true colors of being 'melayu'... yes.. ada makcik tu punya 'enthusiast' should i say, sampai kitaorg terkedu seketika. But then, at the end of the day kitaorg pun dapat gak hasil berkotak2 sorang....hehehehehe... cuma tinggal lagi without having to be so 'greedy' sampai org lain tak leh nak pegang dah apa yg ada kat dalam kedai tu sebab depa main book satu rak, satu rak... huhuhuuhu..makcik...makcik... balik nak berniaga pyrex ker?
last but not least...its actually far from least, is that few days back was our 7th anniversary. its been 7 years of laughs and tears. 7 years of having you, my love as my man. 7 years plus 4 years of ber'shinter' time make 11 years, and I do hope our love will blossom for many, many more years to come.
p/s- i still remember quite clearly the day we first met.... never did it came across my mind at that time that you would be the one.. hehehehehe...nasib la org layan abang masa abang mengorat tu... :)
