Family getaway

Most people in the office will be leaving for the family day today at 4pm. This year it's going to be held at Guoman Resort PD. Myself won't be going since I'm not a permenant staff yet...I joined this company since August this year and my probation/contract will end February next year. Maybe next year I'd be able to join the family day. Itu pun if I'm offered a permenant postlah kan....The performance evaluation form has been circulated, need to be submitted latest next friday. Completed my form...so now just hope for the best. Insya allah kalau ada rezeki...Aminnnn. Kalau takde, nak buat cemana kan...

Wish to go for a nice long holiday with my beloved ones. Spend more quality time them. Away from all these hussles in the city. Rushing for work and everything everyday....The last time we went for a holiday was somewhere in January. Me, hubby and my elder girl.....Off we went to Bukit Tinggi in Indonesia. My baby was too small for the trip so we had to leave her with my aunty.

It was 3 days and 2 nights trip. The flight was a short one. Less than one hour. From the airport, we took a bus. We stopped at several places along the way. For food, for shopping (most of the time)...The thing that really strikes me (and the other ladies) was the gorgeous baju sulam kebaya, serat nenas, etc, etc....There were so exquisites...Rambang lah mata nak pilih yang mana satu wei...Telekung pun bersulam cantik cantik....Memang juling mata.

The journey from the airport to bukit tinggi actually would took about 2 hours but since we stopped many times along the way, by the time we reach the hotel, almost dinner time. Night time, went for traditional show. Siap kena tarik menari lagi dengan penari penari dia...Heheheh..Bila lagi nak tunjuk skills kan...

The next day, started the day early. Singgah tempat orang buat barangan perak. Then sambung lagi jalan jalan. The scenery was also great. I particularly like the Danau Maninjau. so damn beautiful...So peaceful.The environment was romantic. Food was great too...Althoughthe journey to get there was a head spinning and stomach rambling...Kena lalu 44 selekoh tajam giler. Imagineler cemana kan...Rasa macam nak terjunam aje especially when there was another vehicle on the other side of the road. Respect giler dengan bus driver tu...But once we reach the danau, the satisfaction was beyond any words...Cantik sangat...Other place, naik gua...Ha yang ni next time I would just say no thank you..heeheh...Sakit kaki aku panjat tangga yang tinggi. Dah ler gelap gulita...Then we went to the Istana Pagar Ruyung, famous for its Minangkabau..The land of Minangkabau as they call it. The palace was huge and beautiful. The architecture was great. Kalau kat Negeri Sembilan tu kita tengok atap dia pelik pelik, kat Istana Pagar Ruyung ni lagilah kan. My girl siap pakai baju traditional minangkabau lagi....After that sambung shopping lagi kat pasar dia...kalau kat tempat kita ni, lebih kurang macam Medan Mara lah...Lots of shops and stuffs. Just bargain and bargain and bargain..:D

In all, it was a great trip. We had a great time together. Pulak tu pegi dengan member member agency hubby yang kepala giler giler and mulut takde insurance...Memang seronok. We look forward for another trip next year. Tak taulah kat mana plak pak haji boss nak bawak anak anak buah dia this time. Tapi kena kerja kuat dulu baru boss boleh bawak jalan jalan....Heheheheh...

Hmm..planning to go for our very own family getaway. Tengoklah December or January. Tengok rezeki cemana...See firstlah !!!By the way, JBMari ! Selamat berfamily day ! Nanti citer ek..
