The last time we went back to Taiping was during Hari Raya. Hubby has been planning this trip since then. Every long holidays is reserved for balik kampung trips.
We had learned from our mistakes last year so this year, careful planning was done to avoid the same thing happened again. (We were on the road for 8 hours because of the terrible traffic jam on PLUS).
At first, we planned to go back 2 days before CNY but I had to attend my project presentation at the last minute. So, we brought forward the 2-day leave to next week. It was a long holiday, 6 days in total.
We drove back quite late in the afternoon as it was so damn hot that day. Hubby would surely fell asleep if he was to drive in a hot sunny day. Eya, as usual, would fall asleep everytime she entered the car. It was so easy bringing her here and there as she is so easy to deal with.
The journey was quite smooth, with only traffic jam between Behrang and Slim River. We arrived at Taiping around 9 p.m.
We didn't have anything planned for this 'balik kampung'. Our only target was to have a long-nice-stress free holiday, and we did achieve that.
All we did was watching tvs as it was CNY and they showed a lot of nice Chinese movies. We ate a lot, either having mak's cooking or went out.
Eya proved she was one of the clan by sleeping past noon. Just like what her cousins did, wake up nearly noon. Then, she have her brunch, played with bibik, watch tv, had her nap, eat again, sleep.
We went back to KL on Monday, as to avoid the bad traffic jam. After this, no more trips back to Taiping as Mak will come to KL for several months. We only have to go to my SIL's home to visit Mak.
Where are we during CNY??
