Raya Week
The Raya holidays were over a little tad too soon.
On the first day of Raya, the Grammies, Sara and I packed a bag full of snacks and munchies and head for the road towards Malacca. Our first stop, A’famosa Resort. The drive was slow but smooth despite heavy traffic but we reached our destination within an hour and 45 minutes.
The resort was packed with people of all sorts. We have to pay an unbelievable RM38 per head just to get inside. Its one place I have to say regretting going for it. The place is poorly maintained. The animals looked dirty and hungry and some of them seem to have some skin condition. The place smelled horrible too. The one thing that turned me off is the fact that they chain a tiger to a tree, in the tiger’s den with zero chances of the tiger escaping its den.
We finished the little adventure within an hour and left for lunch in Malacca town. We were hoping that we could have some nice peranakan lunch in Jonker Walk but decided to abandon the thought when we saw the multitude of people flooding Jonker Walk. But we did manage to get have some nice baba nyonya food in one of a cozy restaurant.
We left Malacca with our tummies filled and a tired baby!
The rest of the holidays were mostly spent with the Grammies as Daddy Yeoh was busy attending weddings. With Grammies, we were either window shopping and mostly eating out. From Mid Valley to Jusco Maluri and Bangsar Village to Bandar Utama. If we were not with Grammies on one of those days, Sara and I will be either doing some finger painting, playing masak-masak or watching telly.
And for two days Sara refused lunch, as all she wanted was to have a nice long nap. I guess she just wanted to catch up on her sleep after a long tired week with Mummy :)

Poor fella, ferocious as they may be!
We have not taken the kids to Melacca yet, and I have not been to that A'Famosa Resort, though the ad in the paper did look inviting.
