Week 48: nov 12 to 18


Danae was home from school Monday with conjunctivitis, not as bad as Lachlan had it though. We had an Indian feast for dinner, prepared by our maid Lakshmi for us and our neighbours for Deepavali.
Tuesday was Deepavali and Steve and the kids had a public holiday. We went a Deepavali open house for lunch. Tan Sri Tan Sri was also there an insisted I take a photo with him and his 'twin' (Lachlan). Steve and the kids also enjoyed boar ribs again. Later in the afternoon we went to IKEA for one last look, but it was so busy so we just had a look around the Curve and went to Bubba Gumps for dinner.
Steve had the day off Wednesday as well and Danae was well enough to go back to school. Steve and I went to Midvalley Mall and had lunch and a pitcher of Long Island iced tea at Finnegans.
Thursday was another public holiday. We didn't do a lot, Steve had some work to do and Danae and I made the cake for lamingtons.
Friday Danae stayed home from school because even though her eyes were better, she was not supposed to swim and junior school swimming was on all day. She helped me ice lamingtons, we made 200 for international night that night. We also had some mini pies delivered. Steve was home early to help Michael set up for the night and Toni and I went later. It was a good night, the Australian beer, wine and ginger beer were all a hit, as we're the pies, lamingtons and Anzac biscuits. One of The highlights of the night was Kim, the Korean student dancing gangnam style.
Saturday was pretty quiet and on Sunday we went up to Genting Highlands to have a look around. It was very drizzly and we stayed inside and walked through the labyrinth of hotels, casinos, shops and restaurants. The kids weren't that impressed with the rides at the indoor theme park, so we didn't bother with those. They did go into SnowWorld where it was -6 degrees. We didn't stay there too long and weren't that impressed, but as our time here starts to draw to an end it was another thing to cross off the list.
