Preparation for Raya

Many things happened in a week.

Busy as usual. Edie left to KL with a heavy heart. What a man! I wish when I reach that age I still can cycle daily to Kuala Teriang daily! Gemma was back to Shanghai to teach again. Yoann and Damien left to Krabi as well.

We had some Asian guests surprisingly. Yugo Honda and his partner from Japan. Tran from Vietnam, See Kian Shim from KL and Mikami from Japan. Jody is still here. Her passport and visas arrived yesterday and hence she can plan her trip - train from Vietnam to London! Karim and his daughters are still here. And Gopi as well.

Elliot and his partner from USA arrived yesterday and will spend 2 nights with us while Peter and his partner has been with us since the 6. Nicholas from Sweden with his partner is going to stay until 12.

Raya celebration is coming. We are busy preparing the rendang as Zack is going to go to KL to spend this holiday with his children and grandchildren there and he wants to bring the beef rendang and chicken rendang for them. OK, of course beside all the sinful ciggies and buzz.

Meanwhile, we are in sombre feeling as well as Bandit is sick and getting sicker by days.
