Snow in Our Backyard Garden!

The snow started falling down from the grey sky around 10pm on Thursday night. Kami pun apalagi, grabbed the snow gears (konon!) and headed straight towards the garden......time for a snowball fight!!

Alia is all glowing in the snow

Posing depan rumah....look at my car at the background....covered in snow, you can hardly see anything inside the car.

JLo telah bertukar menjadi makcik cleaner...mencuci saki-baki snow atas keta.

Depan umah jiran....malam2 buta konon nak capture the very merry Christmas lighting tapi gambar tak menjadi.

Paris Day 5: Monmartre and Centre of Paris

Our last day in Paris...

We took the chance to visit Monmartre Basilique du Sacré Cœur and went for a shopping near the area. We were lucky as this place was only 10 minutes walk from our hotel. There are many shops selling all sorts of souvenirs along the street. Basilique was one of the most visited tourist attraction in Paris. It is located at the highest point of the city, overlook the Monmartre city and its surrounding. We took the cable car to get to the Basilique and the service was quite good considering the queues ahead of us.

Bergambar depan hotel...sebelah tu bakery shop, depan kedai kebab and McD. So convenient.

Pharoah di kaki Basilique. Orang yang berlagak macam patung atau macam pelbagai mende lagi. They do this for money sebab ada bekas plastik kat kaki mereka utk kita derma duit atas effort mereka.

Sorang lagi peminta sedekah terhormat. At least they do something instead of just sitting there and do nothing.

The ride in a cable car.

Can you see me there? Tengah khusyuk bershopping tue.....

As we had a lot of time to spare before we leave for London St Pancrass International, we went to Eiffel Tower for the 2nd time, and then to Arc de Triomphe. Amik gambar lagi....

Mengikut gossip yang kudengar dari Henri, this is where Lady Di spent her night before she was involved in the tragic accident.

At 6.45pm, we were on board of Eurostar, heading towards the freezing land of England. We left Paris with a lot of wonderful memories. We loved every single moments spent in this City of Light. Bye bye for now....

Paris Day 4 : Chateau de Versailles & The Monalisa

Hari ke-4, kami menghala ke Versailles. This place was suggested by my French friend, Henri. Kami tak masuk pun ke dalam istana ni sebab masa suntuk. We arrived at 2pm and have to head back to Paris Diderot University for some lecture later in the afternoon. Layan gambar je la ye, though the pics were not as great due to wintry weather.

Jardin du Versailles (Garden of Versailles)

Cantik, kan?

Arca yang pelbagai bentuk dan saiz

Di Versailles, ada free admittance for the frontyard garden. So kami pun memulakan sesi mengambil gambar. Hari tu ramai pelancong2 Korea dan Jepun. Mereka datang on tour bus, sebab banyak bas-bas beratur kat depan the grand entrance. This palace is so grandeur, with a massive garden. They provide kereta (macam keta main golf tu .. apa tah namanya) for the tour.

Paris Diderot University

Upacara wajib - bergambar dulu sebelum masuk lecture theatre

Sebelum ke Versailles, my hubby and Alia went to Louvre Musuem, tempat dimana potret Monalisa ditayang kepada umum. I did not join them as I was attending a symposium at Paris University. Sungguh boring....I was half asleep (no...I was fast asleep..harap2 tak berdengkur), tapi kenapa ada mamat 2 org tu jeling2 kat aku pastu sengih2? Mungkinkah aku berdengkur? Oh, sungguh memalukan!

Malam tu, selepas penat mendengar ceramah dan juga berjalan-jalan ke Versailles, we had Asiatte Grek Kebab (Kebab ayam dihiris halus) for dinner. In fact, almost everyday, ni le menu kami. My hubby who can't live without nasi, dragged us to Carrefour and we stock up for the next few days. He had microwaveable rice, tinned sardine and mixed salad for supper. Puas hati dapat makan nasi, katanya. Hahahha.

Sehingga berjumpa lagi ....tunggu catatan hari ke-5 pulak ye yakni hari terakhir kami di bumi Napoleon Bonaparte ni.
