Mum and dad arrived back in KK after a short weekend trip to Singapore. Unfortunately I had to spend the whole weekend in KL finishing the necessary work before flying down to Singapore on 3 June.
Abikia was back in KK to be a part-time tour guide for his KL friends who were in town for the Kaamatan celebration. He can be a part-time nature photographer as well because of this picture perfect postcard photo.
Spectacular sunset view in KK
He had bah kut teh dinner with mum and dad after he picked them up from the airport.
Back in Austin, River is now 8 months old !

Lunch appointment with Abikia at a kopitiam in Brickfields. It has been a busy work week so I definitely earned the right to have a nice lunch break. It was a simple meal of mun fun (rice with gravy, meat, vegetables) and chicken soup.
Unfortunately, there was a parking ticket waiting for us when we went back to the car. It was parked at the side of the road with a yellow line as we couldn’t find any proper parking space. Lesson learnt – get a proper parking space or eat elsewhere !
Back to work after a hearty lunch.

Bikia is on his way to London for a short weekend trip while I was poorer by RM1330 after sending my car for servicing. The air-conditioning was not functioning due to leakage and that alone set me back by RM1100.

Grandma and grandpa are very impressed with River’s crawling skills after watching Anica’s video of her crawling extremely fast.

Thanks to our neighbour (the country where President Obama spent his early childhood years) the annual haze situation has returned.
The situation is worse off in Singapore which is closer to the above mentioned neighbouring country.
Sun 23 June 2013
Weather is only slightly sunny due to heavy haze condition.
Mon 24 June 2013
School closed for 1 day due to worsening haze condition. Driving to work was a breeze and I arrived 30 minutes earlier than usual. If only the traffic could be like this every day (minus the hazardous air situation).
Tues 25 June 2013
It finally rained after weeks of scorching Sahara-like hot weather!
It helped to clear the haze too.
Sun 30 June 2013
It’s like an Amazing Race episode as we were trying to locate the restaurant that Abikia had purchased Groupon voucher. We finally found it after looking for it for half an hour. And the reward? Finding out that it’s closed on the last Sunday of the month. Bummer.
We went for sushi at a nearby place instead. After all the walking and searching, an air-conditioned place was exactly what one needed to recuperate.
Back in Austin, the weather is all clear as River dazzles us with her smile.
