Last Day Colombo.

I never imagine that one day i will visit Colombo:):) It was an interesting experience, despite the terror ride etc it such a good experience and food was delicious:):)

Next year will be New Delhi and i dont know whether i ll be ready to be on the road of New Delhi:):)

Last day in Colombo- tak berapa nak mengambik gambar- hati sudah separuh-separuh ke Malaysia:):)

Fruits semuanya fresh kat Colombo- kalau macam mangga, kita berdiri kat situ baru dia potong:):)

Macam2 Sri Lankan's delicacies yang i enjoy- tapi tosai tak pernah lupa sedap sangat makan dengan sambar, coconut chutney dan fish curry:)

The 3rd day was special- sebab jadi Chairperson so pakai  cincin baru:) Citrine from Colombo:)

Unique opening ceremony for the Forum.

I was placed in the first session- no time to be panicked- took my time and it was fine. I didnt realize there's a giant screen yang tunjuk my biotdata- nasib baik tak pilih gambar bagi makan kambing kat OZ masa dia org mintak gambar;)

Carole Creola from Geneva, a very experience speaker.

It was a good session and you always feel lega after dah habis- Alhamdulillah.

Before we close the Forum we took a small tour around the studio- Stein Studio belongs to Maharaja Group in Colombo, they are very big and powerful. Ini studio "Siapa Nak Jadi Jutawan?":)

Malam penat tak boleh cerita hanya call Room Service.The grilled fish kat sini sangat lah sedap boleh makan sampai daun2 pokok rhu ni;)

The cut fruits presentation was superb.

Last day was excursion- so isi perut di restaurant yang best di hotel ni dulu.

Ini Egg Hopper Basket- macam paper tosai bentuk basket- dalam kita boleh isi macam2 and then ngapp- so sedap.

Swimming Pool by the sea at Mount Lavinia Hotel.

sementara tunggu bas datang ambik nak pi excursion pi jalan2 pantai dulu- dah 3 hari kat sini tak pernah cecah kaki ke pasir lagi:)

Beautiful beach- kat atas atap tu semua belanga tanah di letak kan;)

First visit was Stein News Room- dengar lah beriefing dia orang ni jap.

Then temple- ikut ajer lah untuk pengetahuan:)

After that they took us for visit at the Jones Tea factory- antara yg tertua di Sri Lanka.

Saya pun buat lah tea tasting- black and green tea adalah teh yang paling sihat sekali untuk di minum.

Antara jenis2 Jones's Tea.

Ini bandar Colombo- modern jugak ada ala2 twin tower di sini.

We had our lunch at the old Dutch Hospital yang dah jadi tourist attraction now.

I ordered seafood kebab- sangat sedap- pun habis licin:) sampai bergetar tangan ambik gambar sebab lapar;):)

Kat Colombo ni adalah ala2 Mark&Spencer- nama dia Odel- so petang tu pergi lah carik barang budak2 kat situ dan sempat jugak membeli 2 dress- tak banyak benda boleh di beli and Sri Langka pulak memang size kecik2 betul:):) Malam tu last dinner with kawan2 pakai lah dress dari Odel ni:)

And selfie satu, next time kena beli gopro ke monopod apa ke benda nya tu baru boleh snap baju bila travel sorang2;)

Flower arrangemant kat sini sangat cantik- macam kekwa ni pun nampak sangat cantik arrangement dia.

And i love this copper hood- i always love copper.

Bye Bye Colombo- and thank you for your hospitality:):)

…………..

Exotic Colombo.

I am writing this entry on the bed of Casa Del Rio,Malacca- sudah balik:) Syukur tak terhingga memeluk anak2 di airport- my Tia pulak hingga demam rindukan mama- kesiannya- bermandi air mata di airport:) Masa sampai my husband dah pun check in dengan budak2 untuk satu malam di Pullman, Putrajaya- saja bagi hati yang di tinggalkan gembira:) The next day we drove to Malacca and now staying at this beautiful Casa Del Rio- we love it to the max;) will write about it once my entry on Colombo comes to an end:) 

Sharing my unique trip to the exotic Colombo:) All kimd of stories and many things to learn from the trip too:):)

Sedih tak terhingga tengok anak2 melambai2 masa nak naik flight- especially when you feel one is pressing your hand hard with tears in her eyes:( - so sedih nak di tinggalkan- nak di bawak- masih sekolah dan i was not so sure about Colombo- thought about thier past with Tamil Tigers lah- so on and so forth- better lah tak bawak budak2.

Bersambung dari entry sebelum ni- after dah settle down kat hotel- malam tu dapat special invitation and exclusive to 9 people only to have dinner at the Host's house.

Bersiap- pakai gelang kasi banyak sikit..ammaaa:):)

This is a very nice Heliconias arrangement at Mount Lavinia's lobby- masa ni tunggu transport dah ambik kita orang.

Journey to the host's house was like terror ride- driver kat Colombo memang giler- i guess kat India pun sama- jalan ikut lorong kecik yang sejam lebih abru nak sampai- kalau jantung lemah memang mati by the time sampai! I didnt like it at all:(:(

But the Host was super duper nice- makan2 networking lupa lah terror ride kejap- but so risau nak balik tu:(

Bangun pagi on Monday morning tu first daya nak attend meeting at Million Dollars Stein Studio in Colombo- dari bilik bukak pintu terus boleh berlari di rumput hijau menghadap laut:) terus teringat anak2 lagi- kalau ada mestilah dia orang suka.

After siap turun makan breakfast di ocean terrace- this is my favourite : Dosai/Tosai dalam periuk tembaga yang cantik:)

Ohhhhh sangat heaven Dosai with fish curry,sambar and coconut chutney ;)

Makan mengadap laut lagi lah berselera;)

Omelette Colombo's style ada cili padi- food semua sangat marvellous di sini.

My sister tanya about hygienic level kat sini- Mount Lavinia memang sangat bersih- tandas bau Masala tea:)

Exotic arrangement.

Cantik di keliling hotel ni.

Ramai yang datang berkahwin di sini- kaya2 jugak orang Colombo ni- Mount Lavinia ni 5 star hotel and expensive but everyday ada ajer yg datang buat wedding reception.

Dah siap- naik coach utk meeting.

Ini lah tempat meeting- di Stein Studio yang mahal dan serba baru- tapi in the middle of nowhere- pagi pukul 8.15 kena hantar sampai lah petang 6.30 duduk sini- kematu!

The Glamour studio.

Inilah tempat meeting kita orang- penuh bintang berkelipan di langit studio:)

Ramai lah yang impress dengan keadaan dalam studio:)

My seat- lampu biru ni masuk sekejap2 nampak very nice tapi kalau dah duduk 10 1/2 jam meeting dari pagi…..

Ini lah di bawah lampu biru semua wrinkles, pigmentation semua nampak.

By the time petang lebam mata:) and my mata pun sakit jugak:(

Sampai ajer hotel berjanji dengan delegate wanita dari Macau- we went straight to Coco Spa di hotel- we gave the official dinner a miss:) Biar lah tak makan- massage lagi best- we booked a 2 hr massage:)

Coco Spa by the beach:)

Balik bilik i order gajus grilled with daun kari- sedapnyaaa:)

Papadom with Mango Chutney;)

Then bersedia untuk hari penting esoknya untuk jadi " Kerusi":)

To be continued…..:);)
