Eid ul Fitri 2015

Hi again, its time to revisit this blog of mine. Its been almost seven months since i last wrote. Reading my last posts on my late Norli, was kind of set the mood for this writing. Eid ul Fitri 2015 was very meaningful to me and the kids. Its out biggest, happiest and most celebrated Eid ul Fitri since the her passing.

It was triggered when Muiz mentioned at last 2014 Raya that he won't be celebrating in KL as before, instead in Dublin, where he studies. So Hanis figured that celebrating 2015's in Dublin would be fun. The rest is history - the planning, the saving, the coordinating, the timing for longer Raya leave, the preparation, the bookings etc. quickly come into play.

We've decided on the morning of fourth day of Raya 2015, we the whole family flew to Dublin. Our furthest and longest travel ever. All of us from Azad to Atuk and in betweens, took the trip via Istanbul to Ireland.

Eleven hour flight to Istanbul on Turkish Airline was an experience to all, even when this is my third to Istanbul. We planned as such that we have ample time to do a city tour of Istanbul, before catching our connecting  7 hours later to Dublin.

The idea is to both break the long flight directly from KL Dublin for the sake of everybody especially Azad eighteen months old my grandchild and to do a quick tour of the great city Istanbul. What an experience, travelling together all 8 of us. The pix speaks for itself.

But the much anticipated second leg of the trip in Ireland is the ultimate. Till my next entry.
