It was a short week before welcoming Raya holiday. School declared 2days additional holiday on Mon and Tues in view of the Raya week. Thus mummy sent Emeryn to daycare. On Mon granny picked Emeryn from her daycare and brought her back to Pekaka. She had her dinner at Pekaka before mummy picked her after work. Then mummy dropped by at Ivory Plaza where she sent her blog printouts for binging. Later in the  evening, Emeryn attended BM tuition as usual. While on Tues, we went to Fa Guo San at All Season Place after daycare. Earlier mummy bought an online voucher worth RM30 cash value. It was our first time there. Emeryn was attracted to the flower in the pot dessert, so she ordered it while mummy ordered a Milo toast. We were amazed with the dessert's decoration and we thought the flower was edible. Emeryn wasn't too pleased with her order seeing the black soil in the flower pot. She hates black color in general. After our quick fix, we went to Mr DIY and walked for awhile before heading home.

On Wed, mummy brought Emeryn to her office during her lunch break. Earlier Emeryn was at her daycare. Mummy picked her at about 1.15pm and brought her to EQ. Emeryn promised mummy that she would not disturbs mummy while she is at work. Since it was Raya eve, mummy off at 3pm. We drove home at 3.30pm, where mummy's friend waited for us for an afternoon tea. We went to Bt Lanchang market for a quick meal. We then spent the rest of the evening at home before going out for dinner at 9pm. We had the famous Sg Nibong koay teow th'ng and mummy ordered her fav steamed spicy & sour clam. Mummy withdrew some cash and refill the petrol in preparation of our road trip the next morning.

We started our day early on Thurs. Initially we were supposed to start our journey at 7am but were forced to delay it for 30mins since Carmen Ee Ee was late. We picked Ah Kong, Por Por and Sherine Ee Ee before heading to the highway. The traffic was very smooth and it took us 1hour and 45mins to reach aunty Wan's place. We unloaded our luggage while waiting for Carmen Ee Ee and Onn Zai. We then drove out and meet them for dim sum breakfast at Foh San. It was seriously packed and it took us at least 20mins of waiting before securing a seat. After our breakfast, we visited Kek Look Tong Cave Temple followed by a visit to Gunung Lang. We took a boat ride across to the park where we were greeted by the greenery lush and some animal. We then dropped by at AEON Station 18 to grab a movie ticket for a mid nite show and followed by a quick grocery shopping before going back to aunty Wan's place. We had steamboat and bbq chicken for our early dinner. After our meal and had some rest, we went to the Lost World of Tambun for its nite hot spring. It was an enjoyable family time. Before our movie, we went for supper. We separated into 2 groups where Emeryn tagged along with the elderly to watch Chinese movie while mummy and her dear cousins went for a ghost movie, The Conjuring. The movie ends at about 2.30am and we went back to aunty Wan's place for a sleepover.

The next morning we woke up late as all of us were too tired from yesterday's event. We had our brunch at home before heading to Ipoh Old Town for its famous coffee and egg tart. Mummy and Por Por sponsored RM10 each when Carmen Ee Ee pledged for a contribution to buy a remote control car for a boy whom she visited at the orphanage. We then drove to Burps and Giggles for a coffee break. As usual, we took many funny photos with the wall paintings. Before driving back to our hometown, we had our dinner. We had porridge at one of the stall recommended by aunty Wan before biding them farewell. Our journey home took us 3hours as there was a traffic jam in between.

On Sat, Emeryn attended GB Maths and Art Class as usual. Sherine Ee Ee and Ah Mou came over to our place in the afternoon to copy mummy's tvb series. Later in the evening we bought dinner home.

On Sun, we spent our morning at home and mummy went out to buy breakfast. We went over to Por Por's place at about 5pm and had our dinner there before heading to 1st Avenue. We went for a movie, Despicable Me II. Emeryn requested for the Smurf combo where it comes with a tumbler. We headed home right after the movie.
