My parents came to visit

 Shu got them return flight tickets just to get my dad out of the house. The last time he was here was about 12 years ago when Shu and I got married. My mum had been wanting to come visit since forever but she couldn't just leave my dad behind. My brothers are working so there's no one to look after him.

Anywho, they flew over on Saturday. Took them out for lunch at the place where I go for my sailing classes coz my dad wanted to see the area. There were a lot of construction tapes because I think they are repairing the decks. He only got a glimpse of the boats. Also, the sailing team were all away for SUKMA so the area was pretty empty.


Then, we headed home coz the kids wanted to show them around the house. We went out for dinner somewhere Yusuf really hates but there's proper food for everyone and the place was pretty cozy.


My mum spent the rest of the night with the kids watching Ghostbusters Afterlife. The next morning, we headed off to the beach because my dad was in major need of a soak in the sun. He was having a good time...... It got too hot for my mum that she had to get some shade because she started hyperventilating........


After a few hours, we headed home to clean up and rest. Later in the afternoon, we took them on a boat ride across the river to the market. They had a blast. We'll, I always love being on water. The weather was great on our way there.


I don't know what's going on with the weather these days but we were lucky enough to have made back across the river in time before the storm hit that evening. The wind was so strong and the waves were getting rough.

We had dinner at home that night.

The next morning, the boys had to go to school so everyone got up early. Came back with some breakfast and I took a walk with my mum around the block. She had no sense of the surroundings so I showed her........on foot.... Later, we got everybody into the car to get some keropok from a nearby shop for them to take back to KL.

We got ready at home and sent them off to the airport. Managed to get coffee and after they headed into the departure hall, we headed off to get the boys from school.

It was a short trip because my dad had to go to work when he got back. My mum said she's planning to come back with my aunt and uncle and my brothers........ I hope they don't mind the rain coz I think monsoon is coming early this year.........
