A very happy birthday to mom! Many happy returns of the day! Hope that all your wishes come true!

A yearly excursion to Cameron Highlands.

A quick throwback to our recent trip to Cameron Highlands. One, to celebrate mom's 70th birthday. Two, dad's 6th memorial anniversary. We've gathered on Saturday to celebrate mom's birthday first. Good food and great company... such a blessed and thankful evening to be with family.

Lee's and Phang's

Headed to Cameron Highlands the next morning after breakfast. Surprisingly, it was terribly jam! No school holidays nor public holidays... harrumph! Anyway, we had a lovely time visiting dad's site and family quality time!

Another year has passed... it's an early one this time as we were hoping to avoid the rainy season but got into the peak period instead. Will see how again next year... until then...

FIL's memorial 3rd anniversary

The Phang's family yearly excursion to Pulau Pangkor for Father-in-law's memorial via speedboat, albeit a belated one this year. It's his third anniversary and this time around, we did stopped by the island for a sumptuous seafood lunch with such a breezy and sunny weather to boot! So here are some photos for my remembrance........

We were too famished hence the missing food photos! Rest assured we had loads of fresh yummy seafood with refreshing coconut water! Yummy in my tummy!!!

Until then, see you again next year, Father!!!

How old is my dog in human years?

Someone shared this in Facebook so it's more for my record... to take note of my dear Minnie's age. She's 9 this year and of medium built meaning she's 56 in human years!!! OMG! She's older than me LOL!!! No wonder she behaves like an old lady sometimes! Oh well, she'll always be my baby pup :-)

Happy Birthday Hubs!!!

A very Happy Birthday to my soulmate... my best friend... my hubby dearest!

P/S: so happy we could celebrate it with Angels this time around albeit an early one! I know they have enjoyed planning and surprising you!

Last day: Malacca

Day 2 or rather our last day in Malacca... we had breakfast at this simple hut but the food was awesome! Authentic local food with magical taste! Definitely worth discovering this neat food stall!

After breakfast, sis, her boyfriend and bro Chris had to head back to Singapore so leaving mom, bro Ryan, his wife and us to roam around Jonker Street before heading back to KL!

Last but not least, we found pork satay to satisfy our palate! That's it! A very short one as we headed back to KL before the traffic jam picked up! I can't recall the places we went to as I didn't note it down but most of where we went, it was highly recommended upon Googling. So I guess it's safe to just ask Mr. Google, you can't go wrong here.

Day 1: Malacca

Finally a short trip with mom and siblings over a weekend! We didn't plan to go far so Malacca it is since it's 'central' between Selangor and Singapore LOL! Anyway, I'll let the photos speak for itself, though not many, so here's day 1 of food galore!

Entrance to Jonker Street with that huge bird greeting us while otw to lunch upon arriving!

A must! Chicken rice balls for lunch @ Hoe Kee Chicken Rice!

Another a must! Ice kacang for dessert!!!

A first for us... cruise the river... we can bring Angels to experience this the next time. Thankfully not crowded too, perhaps due to the hot weather!

Then it was time to go check-in at our Airbnb plus shower and catch some 40 winkers before dinner! Yeap, since there were 8 of us, Airbnb is the ideal and cost-effective choice.

Finally, a Nyonya dinner at Nancy's Kitchen before another walk at Jonker Street. After the long walk, it was time to hit the sack since it has been a tiring day of walking, shopping and eating...

Next: day 2.

Last day: Phuket

Princess had wished that our holiday will never end. Well, I did wished for the same too but then reality beckoned with all those mountainous bills and debts to be paid, sigh! Our gloomy, sad last day in Phuket. As there's nothing much going on, we decided to spend the last day at Jungceylon mall after breakfast. After much walking and window-shopping, it's time for lunch and we had it at the food-court downstairs! It was definitely a good, well rounded meal with awesome Thai iced tea!!!

Dessert was ice-blended and ice-cream! OK, we forgot to snap our ice-cream LOL! Yummy in our tummy!

I've just realised that I've forgotten to share this earlier... another steam-punk interior of the hotel we stayed in... Forty Winks Hotel... plus the cool room label which I really liked!

Simple yet attractive!

As our time was limited for this trip, we didn't plan for any sea or island hopping activity hence the simple itinerary LOL! Perhaps for the next round where we can plan better with longer stay and not as rushed. Also ensuring no more disturbance from the likes of Mount Agung if we do plan for Bali again eventually LOL!!!

Anyway, time to board the flight back to reality! Au revoir, Phuket, until the next time we meet again!

Day 2: Phuket

It was such a blessing that our travel this time beckons sunny weather! Unlike the previous times, we encountered rainy weather! I guess it's both Angel's luck lah bringing good weather on this trip! Anyway, this will be a photo filled post so I'll just let them speak for themselves LOL!

First, our hearty breakfast which was included in our hotel room package. Simple yet fulfilling!

Then, a walk to the mesmerising beach! So sunny and bright! FYI, we were tanned even though we were sitting under shades of trees!

Can't be helped, the photo-bombers just love standing at obvious places...

After a stroll at the sunny beach, we went for lunch at Burger King, Jungceylon Mall. Can you believe it that it's non-halal and has more varieties of burger?! Definitely yummy too than those in Malaysia!

I just had to share this of the hotel we were staying in, Forty Winks. For a start, we thought these books were for real... but then alas... it's all fakes!

Anyway, some of the funky, steam-punk designs which I liked!

Simple yet captivating!

This is actually Starbuck's Christmas tree which I just had to share lah...

After all those walking, we hurried back to the hotel for some dips before dinner. Tyger was especially ecstatic to be in the pool again! Dinner was just a 2 mins walk from the hotel, around the corner, by the roadside...

Simple rice noodle soup which was truly yummy!

After dinner, we headed to Jungceylon again because of this nightly event. A water fountain documentary of their beloved King at 7pm every night.

Can see the faded documentary?

After that, it was Bangla Street time! Definitely an eye-opening experience for Angels LOL! Princess kept commenting that she has to wash her eyes with clorox!!! Well, only innocent photos shared here...

All in all, a tiring yet fulfilling day 2 in Phuket! Walked a lot! Ate a lot! Seen a lot! Walked some more! Laugh some more!

Next: last day in Phuket
