Holidays

Well, well, well, what do you know. This week is already the last week of the school holidays. In the beginning I was afraid that I was going to have a difficult time trying to ensure that my kids will not get bored during these 6 weeks holidays. Let me try to recall, what has Nelly been up to these past 5 weeks. The first week of holidays, she joined her kindy's "Holiday Camp", it was an activity filled 4 days, mostly with art work and hadicrafts at school plus a visit to the rabbit farm in Semenyih. She had good fun, though I can't say the same to the brother who was bored to death since he was left home alone with bibik without the sister till about 5 in the afternoon. Poor Zarif, it's ok, by next year you'll be able to join the holiday camp too.

At the end of the 2nd week of holidays, we all went to Pangkor Island for 4 days and 3 nights. It was a wonderful break from work and the smog and haze in the city. It was spent lazing around by the beach and the pool. We didn't even leave the hotel compound throughout the stay. Fantastic! my type of holiday, though if there were things to spent on (other then food that is) in the hotel it would have been even better.
