she turns 5

Ain turns 5.
Owh, time really flies!

We went celebrating with a journey to Ipoh by Electric Train Service.
'We' in the picture are Ayah, Mak, Makcik Jasni, Uda, Murni, Intan, Along n me, plus the kids.
The kids, lead by Ain, followed by Utbah, Hafsah, Aisyah, Maryam and Nisa. Wrote their names according to their ages.
The kids only obviously! ;)

Too bad i didn't got a chance to snap any picture to be uploaded together with this entry.
Note to self : gi kecek kat ayah balik kampung kang k!

That was my first time on ETS.
A single ticket cost RM 35 for adult, RM22 for kids (4 years and above)
A return is a bit cheaper, RM 25 for adult and RM 17 for kids.
With 8 adults and 6 kids (5 of them don't need tickets, but due to some misunderstanding, along already bought the tickets for them and sadly, we couldn't asked for refund).. just do the math! Quite an expensive celebration, imho!
What to say, cucu sulung atok la katakan...

The waiting lounge was comfy. So do the couch.
The train moved at approximately 120kmph. It took about 2 hours and 15 minutes to arrive in Ipoh. It's like traveling by car. Awesome!
Definitely a worth method of traveling, yet the fare is a bit burden especially to the frequent travelers.

The journey didn't planned very well. Upon arriving, we were a bit lost. Where to go? What to do? What are the interesting place in Ipoh? Where to celebrate? ::sighed:: I came out with a suggestion, "Lost World of Tambun!"
We took 2 cabs to get there. Unfortunately, due to improper attire, we couldn't get in.

Owh, i had never been there! I really thought that the water park is as the same as Sunway Lagoon, where they have a shopping mall beside. Apparently not! :( Huhu!Ipoh is not really a good choice for cuti-cuti Malaysia. No offence orang Ipoh ye!

i was just quoting the taxi driver, an Ipoh-born Chinese guy.

Change of plan, we went to the nearest shopping mall. It's Giant. I told the story to one of my colleagues, another Ipoh-born lady, and she found it very funny!"Selangor tadde Giant ye?.... sampai ke Ipoh peginye...hehehe"
Yeap.. i found it very funny too!

Ayah and along lost thier Bonia & Hush Puppies at the surau. Uda had to buy new sandals for them. Ayah was so cool..."Dah bukan rezeki kita.. nak buat cemana!" huhuhu...

Reached home @ TM at about 7.30 pm
I was extra exhausted. Let alone Ain.
She was already asleep in Aunt Anis MyVi.
Nisa' & Utbah still had spare energy! They rocks still! Aduhaiiii....
That's the kids world! ;) Had to bear with it!
It's an unforgettable celebration after all!

Happy 5th Birthday dear daughter, Ainul Mardheeyah.
Am really proud to have you in my live!
Hamdallah!
