Getting Fit for SteemFest with Actifit and Blocktrades || 17 Aug 19 || The End of School Holidays - more family time!

Hi everyone! It's that time of the week again when you hear from me specifically for the Steem Fest Contest with Actifit and Blocktrades! Thank for you this opportunity to possibly win a free ticket + accommodation for SF 4 this year in Bangkok, Thailand. If you are not sure what I am going on about, do check this post by @anomadsoul about this. It is now going on week 8 and things are starting to really get serious. In another two weeks or so, the prices for Steem Fest tickets will be going up. So it will be time for all of us to grab those tickets asap.

This long weekend was a blast indeed. We got so spend time with the kiddos as I decided to take some time off from work. It was a lot of "jalan-jalan" (going out) and eating non-stop! LOL. It started on yesterday (Friday) when we decided to head to Genting Premium outlets. As usual we reasons for going is to just enjoy the weather and let the children run around especially at the outdoor playground. They love going up there because it is like a little adventure to them. They get to go for an hour long plus drive through the mountains and then stop for snacks like bubble tea and chips. Then they get to run and play to their hearts content with the possibility of taking the cable car up to the peak which have only happened once! LOL! Anyway, I even managed to shoot a video to post which I am still working on editing...

Today however I am pleased that I got my 16K steps to qualify for the contest so Sunday will be chilled out day for me as the kids wind down and get ready to head back to school on Monday.

As usual our day started early because of football. I managed to clock in past 5k already in the morning because of it. The coaches decided to make the pitch way way bigger then ever before. Well there were more kiddos this time so running up and down shouting encouragements helps. LOL! Chapati managed to score a goal but I missed getting a video of it! Shucks...got to always have my camera ready next time mounted on a tripod. Hubby said that we should just record the entire match for fun and then watch it with him later to learn how to play better. Maybe...too much to think about at 7 am in the morning.

After football we had our usual roti canai but then I felt like eating a really yummy dessert from Strangers at 47 which was the matcha lava cake with vanilla ice cream. So we walked over next door and did just that! It was scrumptious indeed...hmm...

Then it was time to head home and put the kiddos to sleep. On the way home, hubs decided to take a short detour to show me his latest project site that the company was marketing. It was quite near the alternative entrance to Gasing hill and so after driving around a little, we decided to check out the suspended bridge that was built by the developer to enable people who wanted to hike to get to the hill easier. The kids were excited of course because we were going on a new adventure to check out a new place. We walked a short way before turning back as it was getting hotter.

We reached home cleaned up and the kiddos slept as I did some chores and hubby had to go and settle the shops. When they woke up it was time to go jalan-jalan again as Chapati was keen to go out. We thought of trying Korean BBQ buffet for dinner in the Sri Petaling area. There were quite a few to choose from but we realised that we had to pay for even little Murtabak! (Ok in their eyes he was not quite so little but he is only 3!) So we finally decided on a Korean BBQ that was not buffet and it was delicious! I love Korean food because of their side dishes and kimchi!

After a nice big meal, we walked around a bit, had our Boba tea and then on the way home we just couldn't resist...we just had to buy DURIAN! We usually get them from the Siva Ah Fook stall just before Leisure Mall. The D24 was excellent though a little pricey at MYR20 per kilo! 3 fruits cost us MYR72! (nearly USD 20) I remember that it used to be only like MYR15 or less per kilo. But the prices of durian have come down a little because it is durian season now which will end in late August/early September. I love durians...

Family time coupled with durians is just the kind of wonderful weekend I look forward too. After a long week of work, it really makes you appreciate the most important people in the world! Family...

Thanks for dropping by my little space everyone! Hope that your weekend was just as awesome as mine!

Xoxo,
Khim
