Last weekend was mother’s day... come to think of it, i’ve not celebrated mother’s day with my mom for the past decade! So this year, we went on a little break in Kuching, Sarawak.
Relatives from my maternal grandma’s side are in Kuching and of all my family members, i’m the only one that had never been there. So it’s a good time to go show my face and also to meet of my grandaunt who’s visiting from California, USA.
The trip was ok, tried the local delicacies but was a little disappointed. It’s just not to my ‘taste’. Made a quick stop by the ‘original’ cat statue for a quick photo snap on the first day.
Next, it’s time to go home... the weird thing bout Kuching airport is there’s no free wi-fi... so i just sat in the boarding hall... plane was late in arriving, perhaps due to the heavy downpour... not only was my flight delayed, when i got to klsentral via erl, the lrt had an unscheduled delay... by the time there’s a train, everyone squeezed in like sardines in a can... what a long and tiring day...
Didn’t go to any of the caves but made a trip to Sematan beachside, that’s 1.5 hours drive from Kuching.
Then, there’s the mother’s day cum getting to know relatives cum reunion dinner. I was introduced to everyone since it was my first time there. Met all the grandaunts, granduncle, uncles, aunties, cousins. When i talked to one of the uncles, i realised his son is actually my friend from university! What a small world... i’ve known him for about 10 years not knowing we’re cousins!
