Welcome Nenek and cousin!

Masya-Allah.....it has been a long time I did not blog in...too many things to do and I neglected Lavendar Harum. Anyhow, we are very happy because nenek and Aqilah (my mother in law and my niece) are coming to Perth. They came on 2nd December 2008 landed at 4.50p.m (Perth time). My children have been counting the days for their nenek to come, and they were cheering her with stories and events at the moment nenek reached our home. Unfortunately, my children are still schooling. Their holiday will start on 18th December. Therefore, my niece Aqilah is quite boring at home while her cousins at school.

Last week end, we brought them to Fremantle for shopping and sightseeing. Only 'Iffah followed us, others wanted to stay at home and play their PS2. Boys....shopping is boring for them.
Going to Fremantle we hopped on a bus and two trains (macam jauh jer yek). Actually we can only go by bus, but just wanted Aqilah to enjoy the journey by train. I purchased family rider ticket. This ticket can be used to ride the bus and train for the whole day. This is one of the good things here, the facilities for public are excellent that make people like to travel using public transports.

After arriving, we decided to go for sightseeing first before doing the shopping.

Rest for a while before get on the tram. Beautiful bench and chess table.

At last, in the tram, while listening to the briefing by the driver, we enjoyed the scenery. Below, at the harbour.

Behind us were the trams waiting for the passengers.
