My Story - ARBY Holiday : Road to United Kingdom

Assalam...

Alhamdulillah.....All Praises To Allah...

All I can say is that: All Went Well and Everybody Had A Blast!  Thank you Allah for making it an overall a smooth journey :)

It started with the day we fly off, which was on 20th July 2015 at 9.30am with Qatar Airways via Doha (KUL/DOH/LHR).

We woke our kids as early as 4am and was ready to go by 5am.  My kids were not grumpy as we already briefed them the night before that we are going for a long aeroplane ride to meet their Mamasya.  Ofcause they were very excited and so do my husband and I!  Hehehehehehe.  As mentioned before, it would be my 4th time to the UK and first to my husband and kids - and yet the excitement was there.  The treatment this time is so so so much different as the accompany members were different :)

Anyway, our pick-up from both houses was excellent - on time AND service (please PM if you would like to know more on the transfer).  All went as planned until we reached KLIA 1.....unloading our luggages, my mom came over and asked, "do you bring your stroller?..... zazzzzz!!!! I forgot our STROLLER!!!! Huhhhhh!!!!!! My mom were laughing and said "K.Sue also forgot her's".  Oh my.....  Immediately I decided to just grab one whenever we can later.  There - solved and ready for the next challenge - when the 'power' combine - my kids (team KJG) met up with my brothers' kids (team KRMT)!

As expected, the kids of both teams were very excited to see each other and you may guess AND immagine how the fieast was like :D .  Well it was expected and well taken care off - manageable stress level :)

The check-in, immigration, scanning, riding train were very smooth.  Here comes the waiting time for boarding.  With no playing with the escellators, the kids were ok at first, but 10 mins later they started to entertained themselves...my 3rd child (Uppi) started a genius way of entertaining himself using escallator - hold on to the escallator's belt with one hand, sit on the metal cover and let the belt do the sliding along the metal cover :D  Suddently, all kids were in line :D  Entertaining...but just not the place... I prayed for the gate to open soon.....

At last we were boarding.  The nervous feeling on the long-haul rides for my kids about to start :)  Apparently the kids were at their places - busy exploring the gadgets - what a life saver!!!  As usual, my kids were excited during the take-off and we went along with their excitement.
To my surprise, my kids were well behaved during the flight! Alhamdulillah!!!!

We reached Doha a bit late and have to rush to the next plane for Heathrow, London - in 20 miniutes!  With hand luggage AND the small kids, again, you can immagine the chaos!!! My hubby said, "it feels like we are on the Amazing Race!" and it is very true!!!!  We managed to board our flight to LHR with beautiful greetings from the Qatar Airways cabin crew :)  We settled down and the kids continue to behave on the flight.... fuhhhh.....Alhamdulillah!!!!

7 hours later, we safely reached London, United Kingdom.  Alhamdulillah!!!!
The temperature were unexpected and we quickly adapt to it.
What we could not believe is that the very very very long queue at their immigration, and no special line for  family traveling with small kids and senior citizen!!!  I was surprise because I was not aware of such treatment the first 3 times I went to this country - mainly because 1st time I traveled alone; 2nd time via Manchester and 3rd time on business trip (business class, with priority card).
Anyway, we queued and passed the immigration 1 hour after that.  By this time, the kids were restless and started to be grumpy... hohohohohoho!!! Me and my husband kept ourselves calm and collected - attain to the kids' needs and continue....

We grab our luggage and off we go to search for my sister!!! and easily spotted her waiting for us :)
Our transport for Coventry also is ready - a 40 seaters bus! The kids were excited again for riding the bus - just us 18 pax.

We reached Ina's place at about 8.30pm and the kids did not believe us that it is night already (coz the sun is still there).  I immediately foresee the late night stays up for the kids...oh my... what time will they be in bed?! After late dinner, all went to sleep and ready for our UK invasion.

We woke up the next day start our journey :)

Went to Manchester, Liverpool, Nottingham via Lake District, Warwick, Oxford, London and many more...

The overall "summer" temperature during our visit were 5 to 16 degrees! Very unexpected as I was so ready for the shorts and sleeveless clothing for my kids!!! End up have to buy more appropriate clothing for them - it's ok cause I love to shop!!! :D

It was a very tiring but worthy holiday.  We start our days early, and finishes late everyday.

We managed to stick up to 85% of our itinerary which was unbelievable for me.  I was impressed with the kids because they were so energetic and up to whatever 'adventure' lined for us throughout the journey.

I could not write the whole of our journey here because it was sooooo much things to tell and too many memories a long the way :)

I just hope that all especially the kids will appreciate what been given to them and instill in their life journey for a better person.

I will write more on this journey when the needs are there and when time permits.

Above all, thank you so much to my parents to help make all these a reality :)

*next stop? :D

My Story - Pre-Holiday (part 2)

Assalam..

We are just days to fly!!! and Alhamdulillah, most things was finalised :)

Ticket flights - CheckedTravel Documents - Chacked
Itinerary - 99% Checked *subject to changes
Transportation - 99% Chacked *only local transport house/KLIA 1/house not yet get the contacts, but the provider promised by these two days.
Accomodation - Chacked
Packing - 90% Chacked *need to adjust some domestic stuff.
Change currency - not yet done...ngeeeee.... i will go today!  :)

Packing......I have to pack for not 1, not 2, not even 3 people...but 5 amazing numbers of people!!!

Hmmm... i must admit that i was stressed out and sangat letih in planning this particular trip. Maybe because it involves long haul trip, which we have to make it a truly value for money trip. At the end of the day i hope it went well and we are happy.

Above all, we are very ready to take on this venture and live with it for the rest of our life.  I kept telling myself this trip is about experience and bonding time with my close family members.

My high hope is that we make it together smoothly and happily...InsyaAllah :)

So, we are ready and bring it on!!!

Love & Respect

My Story - Pre-Holiday 2015

Assalam...

Cerita kali ni ialah mengenai persiapan untuk kami pergi bercuti.......and it's gonna be around 3 weeks holiday!!!

This trip is in our list for holiday, but we did not expect it to be 'on' this fast! - get what i mean?
We have been talking about this trip since 2 years ago, and suddently we decided to go for it 2 months ago.

I was like....are we sure??? and majority said -YES! and there goes the starting of 'googleing', asking, and communicating.

Little bit about this trip:
Nama Program : Program Jalan-Jalan Keluarga ARBY Tahun 2015 (KUL/DOH/LHR/DOH/KUL)
Tempat : The UK
Tarikh : 20th July to 4th August 2015 
This trip will involve 7 adults and 9 children in Malaysia and 2 adults (my sister and hubby) in the UK.

That is why the question of "are we sure" came out :)

Anyway, I, as the program planner (itinerary master) of the family trips started the job immediately (sementara tak busy dengan keje di opis la time tu).  From flight tickets to accommodation to transport rentals/public to places of interest to makan/minum.

We had our meeting and continuous Whatsapp among our family members on this trip.  So far, the places of interest is well listed and most of it is in the list.

Flight tickets is an easy one, but the payment is...ehemm ehemm... agak mahal bila SEMUA join. However, we are so very grateful to have a no-interest money lander to help us on the budget side...thank you Mak :)

So, we got the tickets! Kira sebelah kaki dah sampai dahhhh...

The accommodation pula, sangat2 save sebab most of the time akan tido di rumah my sister kat Warwick je :)  Cuma di Manchester dan London sahaja kena cari.  Itu pun jenuh dan masih mencari yang sesuai.

Transportation untuk ke sana, ke sini setakat hari ni masih belum confirm nak guna yang mana sebab kena finalised itinerary dulu.

Yang stress nye buat itinerary la...especially with limited budget and TRAVEL WITH SMALL KIDS :)
Bila travel with small kids ni, like I have mentioned before in my previous "My Story", a lot of things we need to be clear of.
Tapi tak pe...yang penting ialah THE EXPERIENCE. Hopefully with various experiences exposed to them, they will be able to adapt to various environments along the way.

For me, personally, it will be my 4th time to the UK and feel excited to bring along my family especially my Hubby (who still cannot believe himself that we really is going) and my 4 kids (all age 8 and under).  It is not their first time to go on flight, but first time to fly long haul (13hrs +).  Hope they are ok :)

It looks like the itinerary is almost final, but yet a lot to be done and finalised. Huhuhuhuhu...

Ok, keje di ofis sekarang makin banyak...jadi masa untuk personal things terbatas.
Hope we could pull this trip off with great success and above all full of satisfaction.
InsyaAllah...Amin...
