Singapore - December 2011

I've made up my mind.
I wish to pay a visit with long-lost relatives in Singapore.
So 5 of us on a single 308T (I really missed this car) made our trip downsouth during school holiday.


Our 1st stop was at resident of Wak Ainon a.k.a. Nenek Panther at Tanjung Bidara, Melaka.
She is an aunt to Abah.
Last I met her when I was in Standard 5.
She came to Taiping visiting my family.



The next day, we began our journey to Singapore via 2nd Link: GP ~ Tuas.
The traffic was good compare to JB ~ Woodland Causeway.
We checked-in at V-Hotel Lavender, Jellicoe Road.
Everything was costly in Singapore, even you have to pay hourly-basis parking lot inside your hotel parking bay!
Abah's cousins; Jack & Yati brought us for dinner on 1st night.

My kids, they never stay silent...

And they are photogenic as well!

The next day we went to another Abah's relative - Wak Rahmat and Wak Galoh. 
They were spouse living in  Pasir Ris; eastern-most residential area.
We had our lunch there.
I was able to feel a warmth welcome by Wak Rahmat and his family.
They never expected relative from Tanah Melayu whom so long ago lived together has finally meet again.
Before we left the resident, Wak Rahmat handed over to Abah 2 pcs. of old photo of Abah's late mother.
Thank you Wak Rahmat and family for your great courtesy.


The late Atok and the-never-met-Nenek. Abah was being held by Atok.

On the 2nd night we've been invited for dinner by Wak Aziz Selamat, close cousin of Abah.
Wak Aziz did few times came to our house in Taiping before.
He bought us Singapore famous mutton bone red soup at Golden Mile hawker centre.

Abah and Wak Aziz trying their best to close the remaining account.

Got some more boneys Wak!

Ibu and Adin had their dinner without the red-stuff soup.

I was forgotten to mention here that our hotel was nearby with MRT Lavender Station.

I wasn't able to spend my time chatting with Wak Aziz as I need to take a good rest for long haul drive next morning; back to Ipoh.
