greetings from bali

greetings from bali! we r now at some internet cafe in kuta, bali!

last thursday, the parentals along with 6 grandmas came down for the kl receptions. on thursday nite we were at shah alam for the men's maulid (i finally got the hang of the samrah thanks to zahrah, aisha and auntie yam who tutored me). friday was the tea party at mother-in-law's place somewhere off old klang road, not forgetting a short jalan-jalan to klcc while waiting for my dad performed his friday prayers. on saturday, took the parentals with the grandmas to jalan-jalan at jln masjid india where they bought almost everything that could be sold there.. food, drinks, kain, tudong, songkok, brooch and or coz, zaza buying the kacang putih shop. :p

on sunday was the outdoor photography shoot (complete with wedding gown, suit for the hubby and make-up) at subang airport runaway tarmac followed by a helicopter ride of putrajaya, shah alam and kl (saw the twin towers up close!) all thanks to father-in-law! at night was the dinner hosted by the mother-in-law at hotel singgahsana near petaling jaya. it was alright, tiring but good. it was wonderful having my parents, relatives and friends there. imran came and sang and he gave me butterflies. thanks im.

on monday, sent my family back to board their bus back to sg. went to return the rented gown and packed for the honeymoon.

on tuesday morning, we made our way to the airport at 7am. our flight was at 9.50am. reached denpasar and ami zaid's workers picked us up and sent us to the house in nusa dua. the villa is amazing. its cosy and i love the garden complete with the pool. no wonder those who came before couldnt stop gushing abt the house.

we woke up late today after being bright and early for the past week! made our way down to legian and walked down all the way to kuta. browse at some shops (every shop down the street sell the same stuff!), had lunch at some cafe and ended up at kuta beach where we sat down on our towels, lie down and read our books for a couple hours. its monsoon season so the sun wasnt out. the waves were alright. but theres nothing spectacular abt kuta tho. too many street vendors who pestered u to buy their stuff and dogs running around! looking forward to spend a day at lovina where the beaches are more secluded and we get to go dolphin-watching.

tomoro is temple-visiting day. i couldnt stop taking pictures of their amazing architecture. it somehow makes u feel like u r in another era, (apart from the dog crap on the road, pesky salesmen and traffic!)

ok, off to see the barung and kechak dance at some cultural centre near ami zaid's house.

heres a nice and warm honeymoon-hug from me to u guys out there! *hugs*
