Birthday Celebration

Fri 29 Mar 2013 
We were back for short trip to celebrate mummy’s 70th birthday.
I took an early morning flight and was back in KK by 10.30 AM.

Then did some office work before mummy and I set off to the airport to pick up Abikia who arrived at 6 PM.  Fortunately we have 2 cars as Dad went off to pick up Beh Ling who came down from National Park at around 6 PM as well.

It could have been mistaken as a CNY Reunion dinner as we had a lavish feast consisting of fish, prawns, crab, soup and vegetables for dinner.

As Beh Ling didn’t have much sleep the past two nights, she went to sleep at 9 PM. One of the perks on not having to work the next day meant that I could watch a late show on TV.

It turned out to be a super busy day.

We were off to Karamunsing in the morning to look at washing machine and rice cooker for mummy’s birthday gift. Then we went to Merdeka supermarket to get some groceries.

After lunch, Bikia and I went for a haircut before we headed to town. Beh Ling had her facial as well as a massage for her aching legs, ending with a visit to the hair saloon. Bikia also had a massage, while I did my errands on paying my credit card bills and bought the birthday cake.

Then I went for a short jog. Unfortunately, there was an encounter with A Dog. Although it didn’t bite me, its teeth were at my knees and I had a small cut before its owner chased it back into the house. Since it was not a stray dog, a hospital visit was not required.

All of us took our shower before heading to the restaurant. The restaurant manager who knows Dad gave us a discount as there was no service charge of 10%.

For dessert, we had the birthday cake, at home.

At 10 PM, it was time for our Skype session with Austin. 
After that, we had a chat session while Dad went off to sleep.

First trip to the airport was to send off Beh Ling whose flight was at 12.20 PM. We had lunch at home followed by a short rest before sending off Abikia for his 3.40 PM flight.

Then I had a very early 5.30 PM dinner before going to the airport for my 7.20 PM flight. Room for improvement: better coordination for our flight schedule …
