Dear Diary,
Our destination on third raya was Permai Resort & Rest House in Bachok. Mak Adik organized a family gathering (Haji Abdullah's Family
Gathering Syawal 1433H). 9 siblings of Abah were there with each family. All in
all, there were 62 of us. Imagine the havoc!
As soon as everybody was comfortably settled in their
respective rooms, nasi lemak with its companion (sambal tumis ikan bilis,
sliced cucumbers, friend anchovies and peanuts) were served. There were also
ketupat kacang, ketupat daging (super nice!), bubur jagung, tapai, keropok and
raya biscuits.
After a short rest, everybody was all geared up to
participate in the evening’s tele-match. There were games for every age category
from small children to married couples. It was adorable to watch kids fighting
for chairs in musical chair but it was even funnier to watch uncles and aunts
trying to burst other team’s balloons.
For teenagers and young adults, there
were many fun games such as catching eggs without breaking them and beach
volleyball.
Everybody was looking forward to enjoying night time because
more exciting events were scheduled. First on the list was barbecue dinner.
There were marinated chickens, lambs, sausages and fishes to be grilled and
savored with kaw homemade sauce. Other menu included mi goreng, bihun goreng,
puddings and fruits.
After the sumptuous dinner, karaoke session started. While
sipping hot black coffee and listening to all “singers” belted their songs, we
enjoyed each others’ company and talked till midnight. Obviously, there are a
handful of hidden talents in the family. Even Hubby presented a tune that
night! In between songs, there was lucky draw and prize giving ceremony.
What a memorable day!
4 notes of inspiration:

anyway sis.. yg legoland tu, u dah byr entry ticket, u can play all the rides inside dah..takyah byr lagik:)
Maya - Memang best sangat la Maya!! Before this penah gi Pulau Kapas tp tak seramai ni. Dah la tu semua jenis sporting & gila-gila. Makan tak yah cakap la sebab makcik suami akak semua pandai masak.
Okaylah kalau kat dlm tak yah bayar lagi dah. Kira berbaloi la tiket masuk tu. Tp ada ex-colleague akak dah gi, dia kata better tunggu water park siap. Lagi fun!
