My Kelate Trip - part 2

The next morning everyone woke up early to have breakfast together with Tok Abah before he went off to work at 8.30am. After breakfast, Mommy, Tok Mama and I went back to the room and I fell back to sleep soon after. Our original plan was to go for a swim at the pool but it was raining so we had to cancel our plan.


At Wan Ani's house upon arrival. I can't sit still as usual!


Mommy, can we go out now??


Yeaaayy! I'm ready to leave my hotel room & explore Kota Bharu!
At around 2pm, the three of us decided to browse through the shopping mall next door which was connected to the hotel. We bought some snacks and headed back to the room. Tok Abah came back at around 4pm. At 6pm, Tok Mama's friend from school, fetched us from the hotel and took us to her house for dinner. We had typical Kelantan food called Laksam and Laksa Kelantan. I had some of Mommy's, some of Tok Mama's and some of Tok Abah's. After dinner she sent us back to the hotel. We then drove to another shopping mall called KB Mall about 5 minutes' drive from the hotel and Tok Mama looked for some scarves for souvenirs. On the way back to the hotel, we had supper at a restaurant named Tarbush which serves Arab food.


I love looking at myself through the mirror!


Off to dinner! The red dress makes it hard for me to walk..

The next day, we didn't have breakfast with Tok Abah. After he left for work, we went down for breakfast at around 10am. Again, we wanted to swim but I started yawning right after breakfast so we didn't go and I went back to sleep. Tok Abah came back at 11am and they started packing. We were supposed to check out of the hotel at 12 noon but Tok Mama asked for a late check out. We eventually checked out at 2pm. We then headed straight to a place which sells Batik materials. We spent more than an hour there and finally drove to KB Mall right after for a drink because the weather was so hot, we wanted to look for air conditioned place. We were supposed to meet Wan Ani, Tok Amin who had just arrived that very morning and their kids at the restaurant, Tarbush for dinner.


Look at all the colourful BATIKs.. Amazing!


At the Pasar Siti Khadijah Clock Tower with Tok Abah

They arrived at around 7pm, we had dinner there and then headed straight to the airport with them. Our flight back was scheduled at 10pm so we had plenty of time. After saying our farewells, we went to the waiting area and Mommy gave me a quick shower and changed my clothes into fresh ones. Mommy, Tok Mama and Tok Abah freshened up too. Soon after, there was the announcement of passengers with babies to board the plane first.


At the KB airport. I'm still munching...

This time I was wide awake. Finally I experienced my first take off and enjoyed looking at the view very much. I was fascinated by the tiny lights below us.
A short while after taking off the flight crews gave us cupcakes and juice which I shared with Mommy. The flight took us slightly less than an hour.
I read some books Mommy brought along for the trip and when we finally landed we took turns getting off the plane and took some photos outside.
We waited a while for our luggage and went out to wait for Dadda.


This time, I will not miss the take-off!


Reading the in-flight instructions!


I'm soo excited, I can't sit still!


We've landed back home! That was a FUN journey, wasn't it Mommy? :)

When Dadda arrived he was happy to see me and asked how our trip was like. At home we showed him photos that we took during our trip while Tok Abah, Tok Mama and Mommy told him about the trip. Mommy was especially happy with the flight because apparently, when she traveled with Dadda on a different flight (different company), the crews were very rude to her. Where as in this flight, the flight crews were very polite and were always smiling.


Thank you Malaysia Airlines (i.e. FireFlyz) for the good hospitality! I'm sooo happy..!

So, now you know how my first flight went. I'm definitely looking forward to more 'flying' trips!

Here's the photo album for your viewing pleasure..

p.s; My entry for MAS The Great Escapade contest before didn't win me the trip, but I'm hoping to fly with Mommy & Dadda soon!

My First Flight - part 1

Finally, I've had my first flight experience last week, Sunday the 17th of May. Unfortunately though, Dadda was unable to join me in my first exploration of the 'flying world' as he had prior work engagements. The people who witnessed my first flying journey were Mommy, Tok Mama and Tok Abah, of course.

You see, Tok Abah had to go to Kota Bahru, Kelantan for work matters for a couple of days so Mommy, Tok Mama and I decided to tag along! Well, Mommy decided actually, hehe. Anyway, Tok Mama happened to be free too so she decided to join us.

My quest started on a Sunday afternoon. Dadda came out of his training to send us to the airport at around 2pm. Our flight was scheduled at 3pm. I was so excited that I did not have my afternoon nap before that. I took some photos with Dadda at the airport and later Dadda saw us to the boarding gate and waved goodbye. Both Mommy and I were quite sad that Dadda didn't get to join us for my first flight experience.


at the airport with Dadda..


at the FireFly check in counter


Tata Dadda.. We'll miss YOU!
We took more photos in the waiting area before boarding. Mommy and I got to board the plane first because they allowed passengers with babies to go first. So naturally, Mommy got to take me aboard before everyone else because she was with a baby and the baby was of course, yours truly!


Waiting to board with Tok Abah. I'm already very sleepy..


Yeay, we're the first to board as I'm the only baby there!


We're leaving on a Jet Plane!!
As soon as we settled down in our seats, Mommy gave me my bottled milk which she had prepared earlier. People were still looking for their seats and keeping their luggage at the top compartment when suddenly, to Mommy's dismay, I fell asleep! Mommy, Tok Mama and Tok Abah were quite dissapointed because they were all looking forward to seeing me experience the take off. To cut the story short, I actually slept the whole way and didn't even experience the landing, sigh. I only woke up when Mommy carried me off the plane so we managed to snap some photos outside.


Slept all the way to Kota Bharu!!


We're here already? The flight soo comfy Mommy!
When we arrived in Kota Bahru, a family friend, Wan Ani fetched us from the airport and took us to the hotel. We stayed at the Renaissance Hotel in Kota Bahru. We checked in and after Tok Abah and Tok Mama performed their prayers, we drove to Wan Ani's house at a place called Ketereh, about half an hours' drive from the hotel. It rained heavily so we stayed and have dinner at her house with her kids too. Wan Ani's husband, Tok Amin is working in KL. He comes back by plane every few days so he was not there. After dinner we borrowed Wan Ani's car and drove back to the hotel. We arrived at the hotel at around 9pm and took turns to shower. I had my bath and milk right after. We were all tired from the journey so we went to bed early.

To be continued..

The Great Escapade: Fly ME For FREE please!

You're probably wondering what on earth is the title all about! Well, let me enlighten you...

Our beloved Malaysian Airlines has 9 packages for us to choose when booking for flights. My favourite of all is obviously the 'Kids Fly Free' package. The ultimate reason? So I don't get left behind everytime Mommy and Dadda go for a trip or holiday! Duh!



Mommy and Dadda have this serious need to travel or go for a holiday at least twice a year and every single time I was left behind with Tok Mama and Tok Abah.


Thanks Tok Abah, but I wanna go on a real flight!!

I mean, when is this going to end? It's about time they take me along! The reason given was, as always, I was too little and a waste of money to pay for flight tickets.


Dear MAS, please pick me to go on a FREE FLIGHT!!

Well, I've got news for you, Mommy and Dadda, I'm no longer the little baby I once was and now, tadda... MAS has these lovely, awesome packages for you to choose from and one of it is, guess what? Yes, free tickets for kids! Isn't that just perfect for my first flight ever?

So, now, can I tag along? Please... pretty please..?




Leaving on a MAS Jet Plane.. Hopefully soon...

Make sure you read this too!
