Holidays & Wedding Invitation (Day 3 & 4)

On the third day morning (19th Aug 2012), we have our breakfast at the hotel's restaurant, Golden Dew Bistro. It was totally full with Japanese tourist. We have to wait in line but then I saw someone familiar. He was Stanley Jilang, my long lost contact friend. He's also my church member, my siblings' friend cum ex schoolmate. He helped us to find a table for 4 people just in few minutes :)

After breakfast, we went to visit all my in laws families at their rooms. Then, we packed our luggages and checked out earlier as we decided to visit another places.

Actually, 19th Aug is also the first day of Raya for Muslims. I got Raya invitations from my friends in KK, but only on the third day of Raya, but then I'll be in Keningau at that time already. So, hubby and I decided to go to Tamparuli, to visit the Upside Down House of Borneo (Rumah Terbalik).

It was quite sunny on that day, but luckily got cafe at the back of the upside down house. You may visit their souvenir shop too. I bought one fridge magnet for myself.

Can't stand the heat. We need some refreshment ;p
Chocolate ice creams, tuna & curry puffs

Cappucino

Iced milk tea, the entrance tickets & fridge magnet that I bought
Smoking area

By the way, I like their public toilet. Very clean!
Without wasting any time, we proceed to Tuaran Crocodile Farm. Entrance fee for adult is also RM10 and RM5 for children below 12 years old.


Kids are excited to sit on the replica!

You may also take photo with alive crocodile, but you have to pay RM2. I'm not dare at all, so I asked my kids to feed the fishes.

Then we are gathered to watch the crocodile performance.
Kadazan dance with crocodile

Scary!
 You may feed other animals there, such as ducks, chicken and even crocodile itself!

You may visit their souvenir shop too and if you dare to eat the crocodile's egg and meat, then you may buy and try it!

Kids fell asleep on the way back to KK. I decided to have our late lunch at Burger King (BK). It was my first time having BK's meals, but it wasn't bad at all. I like the fried onion ring!


After that, we proceed to my hubby's hometown in Papar. We are very tired and not in the mood for photo session at all, but I managed to take one photo of my kids with their cousin during the second wedding reception dinner, but only among family members.

The next night of 20th Aug 2012, we also went to my sister in law's house for another family dinner. Guess what? KFC for dinner...hmmm...always be my favorite (^_^)

The next, next morning of 21st Aug 2012, we went back to Keningau. 5D/4N stay in KK and Papar, and I really had good times with my family. Thanks for the holiday trip hubby!

Then, we went back to hotel, met my in laws families and get some rest. I decided last minute to be make up by Fiona. I'm very satisfied with her job and I only need to pay her RM50. I was the last person to be make up, so I'm a bit late to the wedding reception with hubby and kids.

My 35th Birthday



Happy birthday to me! I'm officially 35 years old! He...he...I am blessed and I thanked God for a wonderful birthday yesterday (21st July). Not forgetting my beloved family and friends (You know who you are!)

I got a surprised yet the best birthday gift ever from my beloved hubby :)



I don't have a driving license yet, but hubby encourage me to drive. Oh well, its been few years but I really hope I'll have the courage to drive one day! (Guess I'll carry forward my previous resolution to 2013 :p)

A friend of mine insisted on buying a dress for me, but instead I'm asking her to reload Celcom for me! *LOL* Actually I bought too many dresses through online shopping lately, so I prefer something else. I'm glad my friend don't mind...he...he...thanks Jenny for the airtime reloaded :)

By the way, I did receive another mystery gifts from another friend. A sexy underwear and a necklace with the words 'LOVE'. Thanks Luz, I really appreciate it.

I'm still waiting for another parcel from my childhood friend, Alice Sambah. I might received it a bit late, but its okay because I know it contain butterfly motif :)

The best things I did before my birthday is to do crazy online shopping especially on dresses! I love wearing dress! I can even wear it to church, which is more comfortable. Dear hubby, thanks once again for the $$$ (I know you'll read this later!)

Anyway, after church, we went to Thai Steamboat. Just a simple birthday celebration with my family and friends. Hubby asked me to decide and I definitely would like to have steamboat with them. More enjoyable and we can spend hours of talking, laughing and eating of course :D

1st round. After that, I forgot to snap the photo :D

Thanks once again to everyone for all the birthday wishes and prayers. God bless you all too!

How I wish this is real :p
