Ah Ma’s Funeral Day 1

we (baby and me) set off early at 7am in the morning, with my cousin’s bf (eric) to my grandma’s funeral in malaysia. had our early breakfast by ordering mac at drive thru. then off we went to malaysia. the whole journey took abt 4hrs+ from johor to kuala lumpur. however, when we reached the outskirts of KL, we decided dat we should go straight to the funeral place, instead of gg to my auntie’s house first. n so, we tried our luck using our gps and road signs to get there. we had a difficult time while trying to locate and drive to our destination as the signboards weren’t very informative. luckily along the way, we discovered that gps has a location detection function, can tell us where we are now. so we followed the road on the gps. finally reached the funeral place at ard 1230pm.

when we reached there, we had our lunch. also talked to my mom and learnt about my grandma’s last few moments of her life. we were all very sad about my grandma passing away… all of us didnt had a chance to see her the last time, so cfm will be very sad de lor… haiz… but from wad i tink, it would be better for my grandma to leave rather than stay on and suffer. i believe it would be a better choice for her. anyway, after paying our respect to my grandma, we went out on my cousin’s car to a shopping centre to get our toothbrushes. yes, u didnt see wrongly, toothbrushes… we only realised that we didnt bring our toothbrushes when we reached there. :\ we went to the times square to have baby’s lunch and to walk. eventually, we spent most of our time to eat rather than walk, haha… below are the photos of the food that we had at room 18.
