Wedding Dinner

My husband and I attended a wedding dinner last Saturday at Hee Lai Ton Restaurant, Ipoh.

The menu was written in flowery Mandarin. Sorry I don't know how to read. Anyone mind translating for me?

Meaningful Names

Saw these lovely key chains with names at the Borders at the Gardens Mall.



Meaningful phrases for the names..


What about your name?

Library

At the Curve, we came upon a place called the Library. Not knowing what it was, we took a closer look.

the entrance

It seemed to be more of a pub. We couldn't get in as there were kids with us.

Wonderful display outside the place.
A library of liquor!

When there's a chance, I would like to experience the atmosphere inside the Library.

How about you?

Food Garden

We went to the Gardens Mall last Friday and we had our lunch at the food garden.

Since it was already late, we were so hungry. Therefore, all the food tasted good.

But it was rather expensive.

Cervical Cancer

When we were just about to exit the Street, we saw this big truck with loud music.

a project by National Cancer Society Malaysia, "Power Over Cervical Cancer"

Out of curiosity, we approached the truck. A girl asked us to do the "Cervical Cancer Risk Test"


It was just a simple questionnaires. My sister answered it, got a nice pink pen in return. She also donated a bit.



But I just did the online "Cervical Cancer Risk Test" just now.

The Curve

We went to The Curve yesterday night and it was the first time for us.

The Curve at Mutiara Damansara offers the first open-air pedestrian street mall in Malaysia.

There are the North Entrance, South Entrance, the Walk and the Street.

We explored the Street. It was very interesting.

The pedestrian street mall section of The Curve has been aptly named ‘the Street' and it is here that you will be able to sample the many different cuisines that Malaysia has to offer. From Sakae Sushi to Italiannies, Marche to O'Briens, Paddington's House of Pancakes to 1901 Hot Dogs.

Marche

We witnessed the live quartet in front of Marche Movenpick Restaurant. Those talented musicians entertained us with music from all over the world such as the flamenco, salsa, jazz and even popular ballads. But I had just recorded one for you.

Have you ever seen the rain?
Someone told me long ago
There's a calm before the storm,
I know;
It's been comin' for some time.
When it's over, so they say,
It'll rain a sunny day,
I know;
Shinin' down like water.

I want to know, have you ever seen the rain?
I want to know, have you ever seen the rain
Comin' down on a sunny day?

Yesterday, and days before,
Sun is cold and rain is hard,
I know;
Been that way for all my time.
'Til forever, on it goes
Through the circle, fast and slow,
I know;
It can't stop, I wonder.

Scenic Sunday
