Tua Pek Kong Temple

We had a half day trip at Tua Pek Kong Temple on 19th April 2012. It is situated at Pasir Panjang, Perak. Instead of having the famous seafood there, we took this opportunity to eat this delicious roasted pork. We bought it from the Pusing market. The meat is tender and the skin is crispy, the aroma is unforgetable..ok, there goes my diet! :P


The girls were excited over the short trip, so looking forward since the day before..hehehehe..


After having our delicious breakfast at Pusing, we continued our journey to Pasir Panjang. Reaching there, we were attracted by the main entrance. Oh my, everything was in granite! Amazing!


Then, we had a photo session with our own Chinese horoscope. This reminded me of Penang trip :P


Around 90 deities and we spotted a few big fishes. Of course, the girls were overwhelmed.
 

My beautiful daughters!


NingNing found a little mushroom! The girls loved watching the tortoise eating.


The 11 giant statues facing the SEA!! It was constructed by CHINA!!!


Water from the Kuan Yin statue. We brought some home to bathe for good health and safety. Some said that use the water to bathe your car plate number so that it will be at the top in 4D! Hahahaha..weird thinking!


Can see that hubby enjoyed the trip too!


We went into the Taman Monyet, kinda disappointed as we thought that it will be a long walk and no monkey in sight. In addition, if the concrete path changed into wooden path (just like Tanjung Piai), it will be nicer..xixixixixi...Somehow, at least we had a nice sea view!


And we had the opportunity to see the fish and crab! Both girls were amazed as the fish could walk on land. We saw a crab with a pincer bigger than another!

Then, we had a break, eating ice-cream!!


What really attracted me was the water-rolling game and this "Tiger" deity! I'm still puzzled to why the people there praying to the "tiger"??


After a couple of hours spending there, we decided to head home. Driving through the "Safety Bridge", we went home happily! Hopefully to revisit here after a couple of year!

My Upside Down Life

For the past few weeks, I had been really struggling with both my life and work. Since my late grandma fell sick then admitted in the ICU and later on passed away, I felt the pain of losing someone that I have been loving for so long. Seeing my relative who had been struggling into being strong especially my mother, I'm more at ease that made me felt that all the travelling to and fro Perak and Johor though tiring but worthwhile. At the very least, I'm there for them. Although my mother is still not getting used to the life without grandma, I'm sure this is just transition period.

With our company facing multiple problems whether in financial, manpower, office politic or regime change, I had no choice but to leave our company for the time being. I knew that my family needs me, just to be there for them at that time. I'm glad that my hubby is being understanding and giving me full support and of course, helping me out in terms of taking care of our two little princesses and taking every precaution to save our company. I'm sorry that I had to leave the company when it was in a chaotic situation. What a upside down life!!

And now, I'm back...I'm confident that I can make our company in tip top condition just like it used to be or perhaps better than that. One "terrible" week had gone, we are back in our track again. Since then, my hubby wanted to take a break to release tension and to recharge. Coincidentally hubby's family organized a short family trip to Cameron Highlands. So, we took this opportunity to release tension and spending some quality time with hubby's family.

At Habu, Cameron Highlands.

Wake up early in the morning to the playground nearby.


While waiting for the adults, we had a short photo session.
