He is currently attached to a China based construction company. He is the only Malaysian working there.
The company located near Zoo Negara near Ulu Kelang, Ampang. His colleagues are all from China.
It was just a warm home cook meals prepared by his colleagues. We had the lunch together and we thank them for the meals prepared.
We had our dinner at Morganfield’s. We only bought a small cup cake for Daddy to blow the birthday candle at home.
人生的滋味。。
It was almost midnight and I would say good bye to 26th June - my birthday. I was so sleepy and wanted to go to bed already after our simple dinner with dear dear, Issac and Annabelle…
And, suddenly out of nowhere, he gave me a big black bag and a card. I knew, that is a birthday card!
I was talking to him that, I am looking for a tote bag for myself, as the handbag he brought me previously as my birthday present too, the leather of the bag started to peel off… And, I am looking for a bigger size bag as need to put in at least a piece of A4 size paper.
Every time during shopping, I would stopped by the handbag shops and see the design of the bags which one is most suit me.
He told me that, he bought it at Johor Premium Outlet during went to Johor Bahru for meeting. He thinks this design suits me better, then he bought it and all the while kept inside his car boot, till today only took out.
I was so happy and kissed him. After all these years, I was thinking of simple dinner is good enough for me as what we had been through all these years…
Really a surprise! and love shown to me…
I love you… Dear…
Today we were having our weekend walk at the Pavilion Kuala Lumpur. So happened that in the centre court there, there is a Batman theme display show. It features all the Batman’s merchandise including the costumes, the Batman cars, the Batman weapons, and other accessories related to it.
Daddy said, he would like to have the pork ribs from Morganfield’s. That is the first time I am hearing this restaurant. He said that, their spare ribs are the best in town, even better than Tony Roma’s, Chicago’s Ribs, and others.
Kids are eat free with every adult set meal, meaning we are paying only for the 2 sets of Spare Ribs which we ordered. Really worth while meal for Father’s Day Celebration ^^
Morganfield's is it signature dish –"Sticky Bones" – a truly authentic, old-fashioned, prime pork ribs slow-cooked and smoked in coal and hickory wood to tender mouth watering perfection, then basted with the gluey sweet-and-sour- tomato based home-made mopping sauce.
It is really delicious ^^
After the dinner, we still window shopping around the mall then only left for home.
This time around, we really are so lucky – with the clear blue sky above and the green with tint of yellowish across the paddy fields.
The picture laid before our eyes seems so beautiful and nice. Just simply snap a few pictures too, no need special high specification camera also, the scenery before us are so beautiful and natural.
We feel happy that surrounded by the green and yellow paddy. We took a few photos.
It was great!
Children were happy too!
One is Cheng Hoon Teng Temple and another one is Sam Po Kong Temple.
We do not take much of the photos as it was so hot in the afternoon during when we visit for both temples.
Cheng Hoon Teng Temple is located near the Jonker Street, and it is surrounded by the old houses, and actually just next to the Kling Mosque too.
The restoration is done with a lot of craftsmanship. On entering the temple grounds, one drifts into an unexplainable calm.
As the smoke from incense and sandalwood lull your being, you are brought back to your senses by the tingle in your smarting eyes. The wall panel, ceiling décor, inimitable shrines urns, temple utensils and artifacts – drugs your senses.
There are joss sticks, joss papers on sale for one to make offerings in prayer. The history behind this modest temple is real, back to the original Chinese settlement in Melaka in the 1500s, and it is well maintained at considerable expense.
There is a well-known ancient well that is located right at the side of this temple, the local called it Perigi Raja but it is more known as Hang Li Po Well.
100 meters to the right of the temple is the Second World War memorial. This is a historical site for Malaysian Chinese.
It is a temple of multi functions; especially goddess, Tua Pek Gong is a local Taoism goddess controlling the local land and in charges of wealth.
This Temple is located in the middle of Chinatown in Melaka. You can observe the Chinese population and their rituals here. It is a good place to understand and to learn about Chinese habits and traditions.
Standing in front of the museum, you will first be surprised by the magnificent structure of the museum and later, redefine the common way you perceive a museum as nothing more than a normal building.
This is what made the children so excited about the museum! The structure of the ship is actually a replica built according to the former Portuguese ship named “Flor De La Mar”.
Centuries ago, the ship which carried a vast amount of Melaka treasures was on the way back to Portugal. However, accident happened and caused the ship to sink off the coast of Melaka. The construction of the museum according to this former Portuguese ship started in year 1990 and was opened to the public in 1994 after being officiated by Malaysia former Prime Minister, Tun Mahathir.
Walking down the stairs can see models that visualize the situation of how traders from Arab, India and China conducted business with each other in order to gain profit in Melaka port, which was known as Venice of the East at that time.
Porcelain, silk, textile and spices were among some of the famous merchandises being brought into Melaka by the traders.
From those paintings, you can see how the Straits of Melaka is a strategic location for traders from both the east and the west to stop and conduct business while waiting for the monsoon season to change.
Apart from showing the significant history of Melaka Maritime, Maritime Museum also showcases the different eras that Melaka has gone through, from the Melaka Sultanate era, to Portuguese era, Dutch era to British era. With different flags, statues and illustrations representing each era, you will realize that history is no longer a series of boring lessons.
In the adjacent area, you can also read about the history of how Melaka became an Islamic state and the legend of famous warrior such as Hang Tuah during the Melaka Sultanate era.
There is another interesting part on the upper level of Maritime Museum. Coming out from the dim museum, you can climb the stair that bring you up to the upper level of the ship. This is where you can see diorama of a captain cabin. Although you are not allowed to walk into the cabin to have an actual look, you can still read about the roles of a captain at the door step.
Those who were found committing crime will be sentenced by the captain immediately. He will also be the one who took full responsibility in fulfilling the mission of the king and ship owner.
By visiting Maritime Museum, you will be able to understand Melaka more vividly. Apart from the educational and beneficial information you can get from the museum, this place is also one where you will find the art of architecture blended in together with the history of Melaka.
