Jom Jalan ke Taman

Ni pun kisah lama, cerita pada 29 May 08, Khamis lepas. Papa ajak shopping groceries kat ASDA, lepas jer shopping kami terus ke Heaton Park sebab dah janji ngan hero kecik nak bawak dia main ball kat taman. On da way ke taman macam biasa hero kecik nih tido plak. but kali nih kami tetap teruskan perjalanan sebab mmg nak bawak nenek gi jalan ke Heaton Park jugak.

Rupanya sekarang tengah ada fun fair kat Heaton Park nih. Ada la orang yang main tapi tak ramai sangat mungkin sebab hari kerja ajaknya. Iqbal pulak dengar jer muzik kuat dari fun fair tuh terus terjaga and tersenyum. Excited la tuh. Mama mintak papa bagi Iqbal main car pusing2 tuh, tapi papa kata nanti Iqbal takut pulak. At last kami jalan sampai playground. Oh playground penuh dengan budak2 la pulak, so tak dapat ler Iqbal nak naik kuda kayu lagi hari nih. Ha kat animal park tuh dah tak der horse lagi. Dah ditukar dengan donkey pulak. ada la beberapa ekor donkey.

Dah malas nak ambik gambar sangat sebab mama dah penat jalan rasa nak cari kerusi jer masa tuh. Lepas tuh kami ke area padang dekat ngan fun fair tuh sebab dah plan asal nak main ball. mama apa lagi cari tempat landing kat atas rumput tuh sambil makan buah limau yang mama bawak bekal tuh. Sekejap jer layan Iqbal main ball pastu kami pun balik. Mama dah penat da....

Monday Bank Holiday

Last Monday 26 May 08 was bank holiday in UK. We did not planned to go anywhere in the morning then at the afternoon dah mula rasa boring sesangat, then papa ajak jalan2 at Picadilly. Ok la kan since mama pun ada a few things to buy kat Primark tuh. Papa park the car kat Arndale then kami jalan ke Primark. Orang punya la ramai, but baru jer start nak shopping si hero kecik Iqbal dah sleep dalam stroller itu. Lega mama ble la merayau sakan lagi.

Mama beli baju tido sepasang yang strechable, robe dah lama cari nih, pakaian dalam dan sliper 1 pound. Semua barang untuk persiapan bercuti di North Manchester General Hospital nanti. Hehehe.

Nenek pun ada shopping baju jugak. Then we went to TK Maxx. Mama tak plan nak beli apa 2 pun kat sini tapi sekali ternampak jumper (yer ke nama dia jumper) yang mmg ku cari selama ini. sesuai plak. Nenek pun kata cantik. So mama beli la. Nenek pun ada beli blouse kat sini. cantik. Papa pulak gi beli PSP game Transformers kat entertainment shop.

On the way balik ke car Iqbal baru bangun. Siap menggigil kesejukan rupanya pastu dia cakap dia takut naik lift yang glass kat Arndale mall tuh. Kesian anak mama. Sampai jer area rumah dah bising 'Ibal tak nak alik umah, Ibal nak gi alan2 aje'. Faham tak? :)

Posing kat depan Primark lepas shopping hehehe. Tengah2 jalan pun dah tak heran.

Iqbal yang lena tidur tak sedar dah habis shopping kat Primark tuh. Lepas nih ke Arndale pulak ke TK Maxx.

Iqbal bergaya dengan jersey England papa baru beli kat Sport Centre Outlet.

Aksi Iqbal lagi. Macam nak kick ball jer.

Eh! at last main game. Ingatkan main football pakai jersey bukan main lagi. Apa la....

Shopping di Cheshire Oaks Designer Outlet

Ni kira entry lama baru nak update sebab mama dah tahap malas lately nih. Anyway we went to Cheshire Oaks Designer Outlet on Saturday 24 May 08. Nak bawak mak shopping baju2 kat sini sebab Monday tuh bank holiday in UK. Ada la sale sikit but still tak byk discount pun. Our first visit Sport Center. Cuma beli Iqbal nyer England jersey. Suka dia sampai tak mo lepas. Dia kata Iqbal nak pakai main foot ball. hehehe.

Then we went to Timberland Outlet. Papa borong his office shoes plus boot and sandal sekali. So, here papa grabbed 3 pairs of shoes. Semua shoes papa ada discount. Siap ada yg 9.99pound jer. Murah kan. Cuma sandal jer mahal sikit 25pound but it is comfortable kata papa. Mama pun dah nampak shoes yang mama berkenan dah lama dulu price dia dlm 40 pound tak mampu den hari ni dah turun jadi 19.99pound, so apa lagi mama pun ambik ler satu. mintak2 lepas babies kluar nanti ble pakai la yer sebab sekarang kaki ku sebesar kaki gajah. Ohh no!. Pastu tengok but yg discount tuh ada lagi mama pun beli kan satu for my beloved brother Anjang. Rasanya sesuai sangat la untuk digayakan dengan motor RXZ dia tuh. hehehe.

Lepas tuh masuk Levi's. Mahal la jeans kat sini compare Malaysia. Papa tak jadi shopping seluar tapi beli juga satu kat GAP. Masuk clarks shoes nenek dah excited dapat beli sandal yang nenek suka. bestnya price 25pound and buy the next one with 1pound. Ha melilau cari, nenek tak jumpa saiz plak. pastu mama pun ambik kesempatan bought my sandal jugak. share ler ngan nenek nye koata key. Papa bought sepasang kasut kerja. Cantik.

Pastu masuk pumpkin patch outlet mama dah tak der hati nak shopping baju Iqbal n twins, Iqbal pun dah mula buat perangai baik dia. Actually his hungry yer la dah lunch time masa tuh. Dok mintak lollipop dia, but we left all the foods dalam itu car. So, have a break sekejap. kita makan dulu bihun goreng mama plus bananas and teh 'o' panas (dalam keta jer).

Lepas makan kita sambung shopping ke NEXT plak mama's fovourite outlet. But this time sale tak banyak juga even dah clearance. But mama still bought 1 tunic and 1 pant. so dapat ler sepasang. Nenek cari2 baju tetap jugak tak berkenan. rata2 fesyen long sleevenya berleher luas. So, cancel tak jadi la nenek beli.

Dah penat shopping, we went to Liverpool Stadium pulak. Papa nak bawak nenek jalan2 ke stadium pulak (actually papa nak beli servinior for himself, last time tak beli). Pastu ke Everton Stadium pulak. Mama dah malas nak turun kereta so I just waiting for them in the car jer. Kaki dah sakit oooul.

Ni la gambar2 shopping hari nih, but gambar barang shopping tak de sebab dah malas nak snap gambar tuh. :)

Ni la keje mak buyong shopping/jalan sikit cari tempat duduk. Sakit kaki ku. Badan dah berat sangat tau.

Jalan-jalan cari SALE. hehehe

Lepas shopping seluar papa kat GAP

The kids so happy like never play on the grass before kan. Abih rumput2 kat tepi lake tuh sebab bebudak main kejar2. Heheh. Lets layan the pictures la.

Mula2 sampai survey location untuk picnic dulu. Kena jalan jauh sikit baru jumpa itu lake la. Iqbal dah kedepan siap jerit cepat mama! cepat mama!. Mama yang berat jalan terkedek-kedek ;)

Dah sampai ke destination. Tapi sini lepak jer la. plan nak picnic tempat lain. Iqbal & lollipopnya tak dapat dipisahkan.

Iqbal dan Azim merenung jauh mencari tapak untuk main kejar-kejar.

Kaum ibu berehat sebentar sebelum meneruskan perjalanan ke next location.

Nenek bergambar kat pondok hire boat. Nenek dah seminggu sampai tau.

Mama pun nak possing kat jeti boat2 nih.

perjalanan tak dirancang

Lihat tajuk pun dah tahu kan.....hehehe last friday, papa was on leave. So, he keep on asking me where to go today? I just said stay at home lah. I don't know where is the exciting places at this area because papa just want to go somewhere here only.

After our heavy breakfast, nasi goreng belacan papa said siap ler, then he know where to go. Mama pun siap ngan cepat sekali at last he keep asking the same question mana nak pegi nih? Geram geram deh. tadi cakap dah tau mana nak pegi. Dia cakap tau pegi TESCO la. ok la TESCO pun tak pe la after lil' bit angin with the question. :(

Actually masa papa keep on asking the same question mana nak pegi mama ada ckp mana mama tau kat sini. mama tau leed & sheffield jer la. pastu dlm car papa kata jom kita gi Sheffield. So ke Sheffield ler kita hari nih.Scenery valley along the way ke Sheffield

At first our journey was so boring yer la asyik jammed jer and jalan kejap traffic light. At last we are welcome with really nice scenery at the hilly area tuh. Kalau I have the good camera everyone will enjoyed the scenery jugak tau. apa kan daya camera comel ku itu tak cukup power. But we still snap a few pictures along the way.

Wow! Ada jeram. Contoh fractured kat area sini.

Iqbal baru bangun tido terus nak join mama & papa menikmati keindahan alam.

Dah sampai Sheffield our first destination was Sheffield FC. Yer la kita kena la ngikut driver nyer kan. nanti cakap banyak kena tinggal (sanggup ker papa tinggal mama kat sini?) Dah shopping sikit merchandise and possing kami pun balik... (papa nak jer cepat balik sebab petang nanti dia ada activity pembolaan.)

Papa & Iqbal possing. Wall full with the players name.

Lepas shopping sikit.

Stadium Oh Stadium

After came back from Wales, papa bertekad nak tour Football Stadium for the team yang listed in English Premier League and collect their merchandises. So, we went to Old Trafford Stadium again. Oops! they had match today MU vs Bolton. Lucky us it's still early. Orang dah mula ramai but not so crowded lar. Souvenir mmg sale up to 70% but not for the jersey OK. Dapat ler 2 MU T-shirts (papa&mama) and Iqbal as well (Legend in training), fridge magnet, pin badge and handkerchief. Semua barang yang ada discount jer. Ahaks.

Shopping shopping shopping dan lagi

Dah pilih barang. Que ler plak dah nak bayar.

Kat depan stadium Old Trafford. dah penah pose kat sini ler dulu.

Merchandise yang papa bought kat Old Trafford Stadium and Manchester City Stadium

Ini la Legend in Training. Ble kah ganti Ronaldo nanti nih?

Dari Old Trafford we went to Manchester City Football Stadium plak. Around 10 minutes from our apartment and next to ASDA. Always past by the stadium but never went there before. Here not much we got just MCFC mug and pin badge. Here we met ngan Malaysia (students) tengah shopping merchandise jugak.

Papa & Iqbal in front of the stadium

Pose dari Iqbal, siap bengkok2 kan badan. Gaya apa ni Iqbal?

Then on last Saturday after having our heavy breakfast nasi kerabu and kuih koci and roti canai we went to Wigan nak tengok their stadium. This is quite small stadium sharing with ragbi. Not so many merchandise been sold here as well. We tawaf the stadium looking for the gift shop pun tak jumpa, actually the shop is at the shopping outlet JJB. So papa sorang jer la pegi shopping yer mama dah pancit tawaf itew stadium.

Wow! Dapat makan nasi kerabu mmg walla. Siap ada ngan kuih koci and roti canai pak Anas lagi. Iqbal mmg suka roti canai curry kambing nih. Makan sampai menjilat jari.

PApa & Iqbal depan JJB Stadium Wigan

Mama plak nak possing ngan Iqbal. Hehe big mama nyer!

Our next stadium was Blackburn Rovers plak. Today they had match ngan Wigan plak. But, papa manage to park at the nearest parking space at the stadium tuh. Sini their people suka jalan then traveled by by transfortation (may be rumah dorang dekat kot or to avoid traffic jam). Papa jer went to shop at the merchandise shop coz Iqbal dah sleep melip dalam car. Papa grab what ever he interested with big discount too.

Depan Blackburn Rovers. Kat parking. Iqbal dah tido dalam car.

Then, on the way back we stopped plak at Reebok Stadium, Bolton. Dekat highway jer. Today pun ada match gak. Bolton vs tak tahu heheh. Mama dah tired sangat tak nak join papa ke souvenir shop dah lagi pun Iqbal still sleep. Papa got what he want then we chau la.

Papa & Iqbal dekat Reebok Stadium. Iqbal baru bangun tido terus mintak mash mallow. Anak bujang mama nih.

Merchandises yang papa beli kat ketiga2 stadium tuh. Cukup ler untuk kenang-kenangan yer papa.

Wales...Here we go Part 2

Continue our journey to Wales.

On day 3, We had breakfast in the hotel, which is complimentary by the hotel. We had smoked mackerel (adus masin nyer!) tak dapek nak habiskan and cereal.
Iqbal just having cereal then main lari2 ngan Azim. Dua orang nih kalau jumpa main lari2 aje la. Tapi happy plak tengok dorang happy. :)

Ni la Min-y-mor Hotel dari pandangan depan. Berhadapan dengan beach. Very nice view.

Iqbal happy dapat lari2 kat garden hotel nih. Can you see the beach? Very nice and nyaman kan.

Mama pun nak join possing jugak.

After checked out at Min-y-mor Hotel, Barmouth we were headed to Cardiff.
On the way to Cardiff we stopped a few places for sightseeing. Here we stopped at Ebersywth town. Very nice waterfront they have here.
Just went to Tourist Information Center. Ada lambang cymru (red dragon) besar lagi.

and of course tasted their fresh fish and chips. Tu papa dah tapau fish and chips. Makan dalam car la yer. Sbb jauh lagi perjalanan kami.

A few places we stopped for sightseeing and lepaking.Arrived Cardiff almost 7.00pm already. Very tired. Papa bought nasi beriani kambing from Indian Cuisine Restaurant and we just had the dinner at the hotel room. Early morning we checked out and continued our journey.

Ni possing in front of the Premier In Hotel after checking out. This is the most confortable hotel that we stayed.

Gambar jalan2 at Cardiff city. We stopped at Cardiff Castle just 10 minutes from the hotel, We didn't enter the castle just do some retail therapy at the castle gift shop. Papa bought Malaysia Wales flag pin badge. Ha nampak sangat Malaysian ramai gak melawat tempat nih.

Then, we jalan2 at the Bute Park next to the Cardiff Castle. Very nice park and nyaman sekali udara di sini. Iqbal happy ler sekejap dapat lepas bebas. Alangkah bestnya kalau ada park macam nih kat rumah mama. Ble lepak petang2 kan.

Lepas bersantai di pagi hari di Bute Park we continued our journey to Cardiff Football Stadium. Dekat area town Cardiff jugak. Papa and Iqbal as usual went for souvenir hunt kat merchandise's shop stadium tuh. Mama plak dok dalam car jer sbb dah lelah jalan kat park tadi.

Then, we went to Bristol plak. Good Bye Wales. Dah masuk UK balik. Papa nak visit Bristol Football stadium. Mama sempat snap gambar papa kat entrance stadium tuh, then papa bought some sourvenir kat gift shop. Iqbal plak dah lelap kat dalam car. Kesian dia dah kepenatan.


Lepas nih we went to Bath. Bath ni tempat dia mmg banyak sangat beautiful building. Memang menarik architecture building di sini. Ramai sangat student melawat dengan ambik gambar. Lawatan sambil belajar kot. But so bad, kitorang tak jumpa space for parking. so just sightseeing dalam car jer la. sayang nyer.

Then we continued our journey to Stonehenge. This is quite wonderful place. Kira ajaib la sbb sampai sekarang tak tahu mana batu2 nih datang and macam mana di bawak ke tengah ladang ini. Tapi tujuan stonehenge just untuk tentukan musim berpandukan star, sun and moon. Untuk kegunaan peladang di sini beribu tahun dahulu. Sekian ceritanya. Meh kita layan gambor plak.
Mama mula2 sampai and masuk area stonehenge nih. Iqbal dah sibuk nak turul dari his stroller. Nak jalan sendiri.


Gambar sefamili. Ada student from Philippines yang volunteered ambil gambar kami. Bila jalan2 mcm ni tak banyak dapat bergambar bertiga. Yer la susah jugak nak mintak tolong visitor lain snap our picture kan.

Tengok la anak bujang mama nih tak duduk dlm stroller dah. nak berdiri plak. Satu lagi kat sini mmg dijaga ketat oleh security guide. So visitor tak ble melepasi tali yang mengelilingi stonehenge nih. Tapi si Iqbal ni buat lawak dengan semangat waja angkat itu tali and nak pegi ke arah stonehenge tuh. Nasib baik papa sempat tengok and tangkap dia. Rasanya security guide tu dah cuak dah tadi. Hehehe.

Bergambar dengan family uncle Jukie.

Stonehenge waktu dah senja.

Dah keluar dari area stonehenge tuh. Sempat bergambar kat batu depan entrance stonehenge tuh.
Tengok ler gemuk nya sheep kat sini. Kat Malaysia ada lagi ker kambing biri-biri ini? Ker dah pupus hah?

Antara souvenirs yang papa bought masa travel Wales and Stonehenge.

Ni from 2 football club yang kami visit.

Ini plak pin badges yang mama baru nak collect. Macam comel plak letak kat beg nih.

Ni ada campur2 T-shirt, fridge magnet and cap.

After visit stonehenge we went back home. The travelled took almost 5 hours. Macam balik Kedah ler. Sampai rumah everyone dah tired. Had a very light dinner then tido. Good Night. :)
