We LOVE school holidays!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Because when there is no school, we can stay at home all day without Mama having to drive and be in a car for more than 2 facking hours. Because we do not have to plan the lunch menu a week in advance and really, if we wanted to call the Dominoes man because Mama can’t be arsed to think, we can. Because we get to enjoy our time together to play, eat, laugh and learn. Yes, learn! Learning is happening everyday!
Last week, we took a fast, bumpy bus to Lumut. OMG, a bus??? Yeah, a bus-coach. I have not sat in one of these since hmm…maybe never? Yes, princess I am. I know. I much prefer traveling in a yacht.
The kids loved it though. Every single bump was like a roller coaster ride for them. Wheeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!! Followed by cackles of laughter whilst my heart kept falling out every time and I had to scramble down searching on the bus floor to pick it up. Every God damn single time, dammit!! What more, there were no safety belts (or at least we did not see any till it was too late) which made my whole journey completely stressful because I kept imagining T2 flying down the aisle and going splat!
Horrific. I know. The Hubs yelled at me a couple of times to suppress my imagination into my belly.
I cannot help it. I love my kids!!!
So here are some pics to remember our fascinating holiday in Pangkor:
On the bumpety-bump bus! Of course, they had to sit right at the back to make our bums more painful.
.
The Mama who had to walk that extra mile because SOMEONE wanted to eat KFC rather than Nasi Kandar. We also bought some cheap uber cool swimsuits from the Lumut Kedai Runcit because Mama forgot to pack the girls swimmies for the beach holiday. Yeah….I’m stressed every day, y’know.
.
The SOMEONE who was born quite crazy but I still love her to bits.
.
The little one who conquered the bed. How can that be?! Just her and the little green elephant…..
.
Their Mafia look. Not scary at all. Hilarious in fact. Are you scared? I think my girls don’t have any hope in Hollywood. Bollywood perhaps. Back up plan.
.
Whilst waiting for Daddy…….*shall leave that to your imagination*
.
T2 can wile hours away on the beach by herself. Quietly in full concentration.
.
I loved watching her quirkiness and idiosyncrasies.
.
Whilst the other enjoyed the splash of the waves with her new found friend.
.
Very at home at sea.
.
Later, they swam in the pool. T2 has made amazing progress. Each time she gets into water, there is progress. She is so bloody determined to be like her sister.
.
And her sister practised away with her new snorkel. It’s pink because they had no green and they ONLY had pink.
.
We went on a tremendously bumpety-bump-bumpy boat ride so I don’t know which was worse, the bus or the boat. But the boat driver did it on purpose for the thrill of it. T1 loved it. T2 and I hated it. Again, I kept worrying about T2 being flung off the boat! It was so bumpy and windy that she had to hold on to her shades! Or believe me, the sharks would have been wearing them pink sunnies. I myself almost lost my hat as it flew off but thankfully caught in time. Awesome reflexes, I must say.
.
Later, she wanted her entire face covered. I was worried the Hubs would suffocate her. He probably secretly was trying to since we all know how much of a monster T2 is……
.
The big one was so brave to go in alone into deep waters whilst the rest of her family stayed on board watching from deck.
.
My Geisha girls…..wearing the Hotel bathrobes……
.
Playing 5 stones with real stones. Very difficult. Not to mention dangerous.
.
Au Revoir to sand and sea. We will be back.
The End.
