So Iran tak jadik, cancelled ... mama and babah sembang-sembang, bincang-bincang and we went through every detail thoroughly related to the vacation on the internet brochures as meticulously as possible so that it meets n fits our affordable budget. Googling, browsing surfing the net and looked for necessary search. Finally, Mama, babah, Auntie Riri and Uncle Madi spent considerable time to unanimously agreed to spend our hard-earned money to Istanbul for the breathtaking views and hope for the excellent shopping within our budget.
.
It is all about budget (meticulously counted and planned) - which air fare is cheaper, which hotel is cheaper but nice and nearer to the attractions... pendek kata nak yang reasonable cheaplah!!!! Auntie2 and Uncle2 lain semua dah pegi Istanbul so they will for go another contigency plan on vacation. Fair and square! as the children would be happy for a day trip to ski resort , main snow and hope ada snowfalls and the parents to enjoy the architecture monuments/mosques or buildings and to view the beautiful landscape of Istanbul and not to forget the SHOPPING event. Babah cari carpet kot? Tentatively that is the plan. InsyaAllah ada rezeki, tiada aral melintang, kami Cuti-Cuti ke Istanbul.
At the moment actually we are anxiously waited for the two kids from Malaysia (Anwar and Intan) to spend their holidays in Dubai. Intan has been YM (yahoo messenging and web conferencing) me every day to ask bila depa nak pegi nih! Tak sabar dah. Babah has already booked tickets for them, InsyaAllah on the 3rd of November depa sampai 'travelling alone' on Malaysian Airlines MAS. This time the are independant, NO adults accompanying them... saja nak bagi depa experience this; eventhough atuk and nenek diorang ni risau benor. Takut hilang atau kena kidnap. hehehe. Actually we are worried too but( from a reliable source) which Riri herself has sent Ali and Harris who were only 8 and 6 at that time to Malaysia on 'travel alone' service. Everything went off smoothly and the children arrived safely in one piece to their grandparents in Kelantan. We were told the MAS staff would assist these children from their points of departure to the final destination in Dubai - in the hand of babah. InsyaAllah. (Tapi kalau hilang camne?) ermm MasyaAllah!!!! Hope Allah ease the journey for them. Ameen.....
