gawai 2010

hmm.. big day is coming, Gawai is on 1st and 2nd June .. and there is Wesak Day on Friday 28th of May, and weekend in between, whoaa!! this could be a long holiday if mama and babah takes leaves from work and we can balik kampung.. babah have to attend training on 1st June, so he can fly from Kuching and return on the 2nd to Kuching and continue with 2 days leaves. Greatt! so when are we leaving ma?

on Saturday we left for Kuching, original plan was right after Subuh, but as you know.. shit happens, literally. both of us.. We finally left about 9 am. We stopped at Sri Aman junction for lunch, about 3 pm.  Babah suggested that we drop by at Pak Long's house, but mama hesitated as we were behind schedule. Anyway, the food was great! Mama had back-ache, and had to endure enormous pain especially along bumpy Sri Aman-Serian stretch. We stopped at Serian and dropped by Kak Yani's house for a break.. you won't regret dropping by at any time as they would offer delicious food any time of day. you know what, they have painkillers for back-ache too..

 here they offer us, karipap and kopok lekor.. hmmm yummyy! but i forgot to snap a picture of it

 the next day, we went to maknek's house but we need to rush to Bako for auntie Jum's engagement. as always, I enjoy the boat ride..

 nek wan was already there for like a week.. of course she was the director of cooking, you can see her gold necklace from afar, all 50 gm of it!!

 babah managed to capture pics of the ceremony, we were downstairs and according to babah the usual traditional malay engagement ceremony, with pantun and stuff.. but nowadays they have some sort of an agreement, like pre-nup? nahhh.. no mention of anything of that sort..

sesi menyarung cincin..

the next day we sent babah to the airport, I brought feyfey along.. 

as promised, after babah checked in, we went to McD for lunch.. 

when babah returned from KL on Wednesday we asked him to bring us to the waterfront.. adeeb never been there, kak tasha also joined us, she came down from sri aman for school holiday

i brought along my bey-bie..

and took her for a stroll..

The Astana, our Governor's official residence, built during White Rajah time

the mountain at the background is Mount Serapi, you can see it from Kuching Airport but people always mistaken it for Santubong, because it's more famous than mount Serapi..
