Cuti Sekolah Part III

It's been awhile since my last entry. Biasalah bila Cik M datang melawat dan Cik Idea pulak tak datang menjenguk alamat tak berasap ler Blog Mommy...Ini pun paksakan jugaklah duduk kat sini lagipun both my misses tak ada so I better use the "tanpa gangguan" opportunity nie to story mory here and upload some photos for uols.

Well, our trip to Slagharen was an "okaylah" but memorable, if one might ask. Okaylah in the sense that they have quite a number of rides for the little misses to muse themselves despite the rain and the breeze. At first, we were not too sure whether was it a good idea staying there for 5 days as we were afraid that the 3 + 1 stooges (my friend's daughter came along with us) might get bored of the park and all the attractions, but we were wrong. Every day they woke up early and pestering us on getting ready and with the same excitement every morning they marched to the park as if there's some new rides waiting for them to venture. And a memorable one I would say because all the 3 + 1 stooges came back home with mosquitoes biten marks all over their body especially their cute faces. We didn't come prepared for the mosquitoes party hence the punishment, I might say. You can obviously tell that this was our first time staying in a camping type of accommodation and after all the pain by just looking at how the children suffered from the itch, I guess this will also be the last for us.

One week's activity settled !!! everyday I have to crack my head and think of activites for my both misses. They are so used to doing activities after activities in school and when they are at home doing nothing they started to get bored shooting me with a non-stop questions like "what are we doing today, mommy", "what are we doing next, mommy", "where are we going today, mommy" and so on...Thank god 3 weeks has passed since we came back from UK. You must be wondering how I survived these 3 weeks ???? well, we didn't stay at home much really, I brought them out most of the time to parks (indoor and outdoor), sealife centre, cycling (in Netherlands it is very safe to cycle as everywhere you go there is a cycling path and here cyclists are given priority) and to the cinema. We've watched Kungfu Panda and Mamma Mia !. Thumbs up to both movies !! The misses enjoyed them very much even Aidan loves them.

Okay enough of being bad mommy ! this whole week we didn't go out at all (actually the weather plays its part too) but I've been sitting down with rotan in my hand and torturing the misses with reading, spelling, adding, multiplying and lots more !!! even Aidan have to sit and do some reading too ! but he loves it especially books with lots of fishes, aeroplanes and trains in it. But all of that with a promise of a rewards ! so not so bad lah...

The reward is Mr Dear will be taking us to a theme park call Slagharen (within Netherland) which is about 2 1/2 hours drive from our place. We'll be staying at a bungalow just outside the park. There're also different types of accomodation like chalet, tent and caravan and most important is that they have a huge open and covered pool. To tell you the truth, mommy pun excited gak...imagine 5 days without having to hantuk kepala and think what to cook ! woohooo Slagharen, here we come !!! ooppss ! thank you Daddy...

Cuti sekolah

Now both my little misses are having their summer break. Dah 4 minggu dah, masih ada lagi 2 minggu to go. The first week of their holidays we brought them to UK. We all drove our own car via Dover port. Macam jakun pulak budak-budak tu naik feri. Mcm tak pernah !!! tapi sebenarnya Alyiah & Aidan memang tak pernah pun. Natasha aje yg dulu naik feri masa nak pergi Penang. Tapi feri ke Penang sekejap aje, yang ini sampai 1 1/2 jam. Mabuk jugak we all dibuatnya. From there we continue our journey to Bicester which is about 1 1/2 hours drive pulak lagi. Kat Bicester we stayed one night in Bignell Park Hotel. The purpose of our trip was for the children tapi Mommy pun nak lah jugak something for mommy kan ! Actually bukan ada anything special pun kat Bicester nie tapi sebelum pergi actually I dah google and did my research. Kat sini ada Outlet Village !!!! woohooo !! nama dia Bicester Outlet Village. Best sangat tambah pulak Mr Dear dah bagi greenlight utk shopping !! they have all the branded goods selling at a vvveeerryyy reasonable price. So apalagi, borong sakan ler we all. We were at the village from 11 am right until their closing time which is 7 pm. Bayangkan lah berapa kali we all tawaf outlet tu pun tak tau lah ! sampai kan muka both my little misses dah lbh masam dari cuka. Aidan no problem sbb in the stroller all the time. Tak sempat pulak nak ambil gambar masa kat situ.

Esoknya lepas check out we drove pulak ke Birmingham sbb nak pergi Cadbury World. Kat sini pun best. They have a lot of attractions for children, tak boring langsung. From there we drove to Windsor and check in at Hilton Hotel. We stayed here for 4 nights. This place is actually our main destination sbb we all ambil package hotel & entrance to their famous Legoland themepark and Windsor Castle. Overall, the children (mommy and daddy pun lbh kurang gak lah tu) had a very good time.

Alhamdulillah

Finally, I've been accepted as one of Blogger family...dah boleh upload gambar ! Tapi masih banyak lagi nak kena belajar sbb dah lama sebenarnya tinggalkan bidang nie...lbh kurang 8 tahun dah kot tak buat benda-benda nie semua, asyik busy with the 3 stooges tu aje....
This photo was taken at the Malaysian Embassy of the Netherlands during the 2007 Eid Celebration. There are Daddy or will be known here as Mr Dear, Mommy, Natasha (7++), Alyiah (5) and Aidan (2++). We've been living in this country since 2002 and still enjoying it. Insyaallah, I will try to regularly update my blog and share with uols cerita-ceriti di sepanjang kehidupan kami disini...
