Easter Holiday Weekend



Last week was the much anticipated Easter bank holiday weekend. I was looking forward to have a few days off work. I managed to do some studying during the week.Exam is in two weeks??!! erk!!How time flies..Insya-allah it will be ok. On Friday, I decided to take a study break and the girls and I took a half day trip to Kew Gardens in Richmond, Surrey.


Kew Gardens is famous for the annual summer flower show and its open air concerts. The garden is huge. We were there for about four hours yet only covered about a quarter of the park. I was expecting to see flowers blooming everywhere. Unfortunately only a small part of the gardens have fully bloomed. Nevertheless that didn't stop us from taking loads of photo opportunities especially since it was a nice sunny day. :) Thanks to Kak Rahayu who took the various pic shots.


On Bank Holiday Monday, we planned a last minute day trip to county Devon. Thanks to our two drivers Bobby & Fazly :p, we headed down south to see the famous Stonehenge. Its still a mystery how people managed to get the stones and arrange it in the way it is now.

We continued to head down south towards Weymouth Beach. It was lovely to see families and little kids on the beach lepaking and enjoying the weather. It wasn't warm enough to go into the water though but we did see a few folks windsurfing and jet skiing in the water. Crazy people!!!!


We also went to Chesil Beach which was further on from the Old Harbour. We drove right up to the top in order to get the best views of the beach. It was damn windy at the top but the view was absolutely amazing. On the way back we were all pretty knackered but it was definitely worth the trip and a great day out for everyone.
