We were in Taiping this last weekend. Anak saudara, Syahdah, kawen. Somehow anak & anak2 sedara ni pilih tarikh dekat2 pulak nak kahwin. My another niece will be getting married next weekend. Kami kata macam setahun tu ada bulan Mei saja, semua nak kahwin time tu.
Anyway the wedding went on very well. It was sunny yet windy. Alhamdulillah it didnt rain considering that we were in Taiping after all. The nasi was sedap; the laksa delish and the kambing bakar was finger-licking-good.
We stayed at Flemington, with rooms that overlook the lake gardens. Which I love. We couldnt all stay at mum's, after all we could form our own bola fc if we wish. Oh wait, we could have many football teams come to think of it. We could even form our very own American football team - which is like 30 or so on a team, right?
Anyway. We all love our rooms; except Ilyas who made last minute reservation change and gotten a room with a view of some roofs instead. We visited kuay teow doli after which we decided we will not come back! And went to Burmese Pool - sungai yang cantik with deep and wide pools to swim/bathe/play in - a place I visited with friends years, years and years ago - and thought it hadnt changed a bit (not like I remember much of it anyway!)
On Sun kami hantar pengantin to Syahdah's in-laws and then return to the city.
If you are in Taiping, visit the Lake Gardens - a must (hubs complained that I always take the long road via the lake gardens getting to and back from the hotel and insisted he drives slow when passing through. I said of course we must, after all that was how my late dad and mum used to do it) - visit Burmese Pool and the Maxwell Hills. But leave Doli out of your itinerary. Just chill and take things slow in Taiping, that is the rule.
