Family Hike

 

  

before the hike

 

 

Monday was a school special holiday after the school Graduation Ceremony. Mummy dropped Emeryn at granny's work place, the daycare center before going to work. Mummy then picked up Emeryn at 12.45pm where she took half day leave. We went to 1st Avenue as mummy needs to utilize the Parkson voucher before it expired. With the voucher, mummy bought a Princess tumbler and a set of Faber Castell color pencil for Emeryn, a preparation for her Standard One. We had our late lunch at Kim Gary before driving over to Convent Green Lane. Mummy wanted to show Emeryn the school during the recess time, where she could witness the real situation when she enrolls there next year. After that we drove over to Autocity as mummy needs to fetch her friend back to the island. We were there too early and none of the shops where open. We ended up at KFC where Emeryn asked for a meal. It was her early dinner. We had coffee at Starbucks after meeting mummy's friend before heading back to the island. He got us the infamous salted chicken from Ipoh and that was our wonderful dinner at home.

Mummy left Emeryn overnite at Por Por's place on Fri nite where she visited the most happening club at Penang, Soju Room. Mummy picked Emeryn on Sat morning and then sent her off to Art Class. Later in the afternoon we went out where mummy got her four tyres changed to a new one. Finally, we're in a much safer car after the new tyres are installed. While waiting for the installation we walked across the road and sat down for a light meal, nasi lemak and teh ais. Later in the evening, we had dinner with Tokkie Ee and the rest.

It was the Nine Emperor Gods Festival and it was the first time mummy and Emeryn join in the family hike to the 1200 steps mountain a.k.a. Cheng Yee Chan Temple on Sun morning. We started the day extremely early where we met for breakfast at Air Itam at 7am. After the breakfast, Theng Ee Ee drove us up to the Air Itam Dam where all of us gathered before the hike started. As usual we started off by snapping some photo. We started our hike at about 8.20am and it took us almost an hour to reach to the peak. Half way through Emeryn got tired where Uncle Lin Chun carried her for a short while and Ah Pak carried her walking down the stairs. We did our prayers before having our vegetarian meal there. Mummy and Emeryn went downhill first while the rest continued their prayers. 

We left Air Itam Dam at about 11.50am and reached home by 12.30pm. We rushed for a quick shower before meeting up with Aunty Mei and Flo for lunch at Pappa Rich, egate. Aunty Mei Ling joined us later on. It started to pour heavily just before we left. We went over to Guardian while waiting for the rain to stop. We then headed home for Emeryn's late afternoon nap. In the evening, we had dinner at Super Tanker before sending Tokkie Ee Ee and Uncle Lin Chun off.
