Dumai Holiday - Part 1 - Driving to Melaka

We went to back Dumai for a short holiday during the Chinese New Year break between February 7th, 2008 to 11th, 2008.

We decided to take the ferry via Melaka instead of Port Klang since the time to spend on the ferry would be shorter. We left the house around 7 am and arrived in Melaka just in time to board the first ferry.

Here are some pictures of Pasha in the car while driving to Melaka. He occupied most of his time playing and sleeping.

Hello! This is my playing ground in the car!

Papa's wallet is really boring... Can I go to sleep now Mama?

Coming soon, Part 2!

Lunch at Pizza Hut Tesco Shah Alam

Sunday 27th January 2008


We went out for lunch at the Pizza Hut in Tesco Shah Alam. Here are the photos that we took while we were there.


Here are photos of Pasha playing with one of those papers that you can color that they always put on the table at Pizza Hut and Mama who was busy looking for things to eat since the one that she wanted was only served during weekdays...


Then it was the waiting for food time and look at Pasha who was already tired of waiting and asked Mama to hold him... Actually at that time, Pasha was already sleepy.


The food finally arrived. A bowl of mushroom soup for Papa. A soda for Papa too and his delicious plate of spaghetti. Papa really loved this one.


Then Mama's food came. A plate of that criss-crossing, whatever they called it, potato stuff and a personal pan of pizza with lots of pepperoni on it. Lastly, that bread stick for Papa that came quite late since the people there was too busy trying to do less work than the other person...


Finally Papa had to hold Pasha as Mama needed to finish her lunch and soon after that Pasha was happily sleeping in his stroller.

The End.

Lunch at JomBali Cafe, Carrefour Subang Jaya

19th January 2008

We went for lunch at JomBali Cafe at Carrefour Subang Jaya.

"I want some fresh Mama's milk and some Farleys biscuits to go with it and please tell me why they are not on the menu?" said Pasha after going through the whole menu.

While Mama was posing for the camera Pasha saw something on the floor and started to wonder about it...

"Why are they taking too long to send us our food and I can see that Mama and Papa are starving..."

"That's Papa's Curry Laksa... According to Papa, it is not the best and the taste is somewhat average only..."

"I don't know since I only eat some rice porridges made by Mama, Farleys biscuits and some of those brown rice stuffs that Papa bought for me..."

Papa's tea with milk, Mama's ribena with longan that was too sweet to Mama's taste and Mama's char kuey teow.

We had problem getting some sweet spy sauce since the waitress (may be from China) could not understand what we wanted until another waitress (may be from Indonesia) came by and brought us the right one.

"That's me after my lunch but they censored my lunch photos and you have to ask Mama about that"

"Me and Papa feeling great after lunch..."

One of the menus...

"Who needs a stroller when the shopping cart is bigger and furthermore, strollers are for babies..." According to Pasha in Carrefour.


The End.

Pasha, Bear, Diah and Mama Diah at Cameron Highland

We went for a company trip to Cameron Highland from 29/12/2007 to 31/12/2007. It was Pasha's first trip to the mountains and he took the trip with lots of smile even though the road was windy all the way up.

We arrived safely at Tanah Rata where we had a quick lunch and then proceeded to our apartment at the Desa Anthurium where we had a good rest and dinner for the night. The apartment itself is a spacious 3 bedroom unit that can fit at least 8 adults comfortably.

After dinner, we made our way up to Brinchang for the night market. It started to drizzle when we got there and then Pasha fell asleep while the rain got heavier.



Above are photos of Pasha at the night market before he fell asleep. Diah bought some cactus and I bought some nice steamed corns that were very sweet and we headed home after that due to the rain and Pasha who was already fast asleep.

The next morning after breakfast, we were up and ready for our visits to some of the spots in Cameron. The picture above showing our poses in front of our apartment as well as Pasha at the steering wheel with full of excitement!

Our first destination was the Boh Tea plantation at Sungei Palas. Pasha fell asleep again as we reached at the top of the plantation. The view of the plantation from up there was awesome. You can see how comfortable Pasha was... It was not too cold, just nice.

We decided to take a look at the factory and see how the tea was made and the noise from the machines successfully woke Pasha up! Then he spent all his time observing the machines in there. Right after the factory, we went to buy some souvenirs and above you can see the last two pictures of Pasha and Diah at the shop.

After taking a few more scenery shots, we went back down and stopped at a Bee farm where honey is harvested for sale. My friends would like to buy some honey and while waiting we went over to the market next door to buy some fresh fruits that Pasha really loved.

Then we continued our tour to one of the strawberry farms there. We had some nice strawberry ice creams and we got the opportunity to touch the strawberry plants. We had a great time there as shown in the photos above.

From the strawberry farm we went to Cactus Point, which is one of the places where you can buy flowers and cactus. we did not buy anything though as it is cheaper to buy the cactus at the night market.

We ended the tour with a lunch at KFC in Brinchang. The last two photos above showing Pasha having a great time on a baby chair at the KFC.

We got back to our apartment and everyone got a good rest. Pasha recharged rather quickly and spent some time messing up the dressing tables as shown above. He was really having a ball then. Just look at his face.

That night we went to the night market at Brinchang again and Diah bought another 8 cactus and I bought some more sweet steamed corns. Pasha fell asleep again at the market and that concluded our second day.

The last day. After checking out from our apartment, we headed down but not via the road that we came up but we decided to use the Simpang Pulai way as it was less steep and windy. On the way, we stopped at one of the souvenir shops there where Diah and Mama Diah wanted to buy some things.

We also stopped at the vegetable market at Gunung Brinchang and bought some fresh strawberries, vegetables as well as sweet corns. We arrived home safely at about 4 pm. All of us had a great time there.
