Our Holiday Begins

We planned to start our journey to Ipoh by 7.30am. And to my surprise, we really made it! We left the house at 7.30am!!
Daddy took a slow(er) drive to Ipoh since the car had not reached the planned 2,000km for it to be fully run-in. 
We were arrived at K-10, where we arranged to meet up with everyone (there additional folks too -- Kor-kor, and Kor Pohs and Kor-Teows), and shortly everyone also arrived. Chek Kong had already pre-ordered our yong tau foo stuff, so we just needed to add our noodle orders.
We then headed to Ipoh house for a chat and to wait for the kuih which they wanted us to bring to KL for Ashley and Yvonne Kor-kor (daddy's poor new car!). We borrowed containers from Chim Poh to put the foodstuff into and then to seal with cling wrap to reduce the smell getting into the car. The kuih were made of chives which had a very strong smell. Luckily this worked and the car still has the "new car" smell. It was quite late by the time we left Ipoh. Then we headed straight to Ashley Kor-kor's house. 
Uncle Dennis was waiting at home for us. We unpacked, had a bio-break and quickly hopped back into daddy's car and headed to Tropicana Avenue where Ashley Kor-kor had found a restaurant with the kitchen still open (it was past 2.30pm!).
Had some drinks and light food (cannot spoil our appetite for dinner).
Headed back home to rest and nap before dinner. 
Dinner was at Jyu Raku. We met up with Jack Min Ah Pek and Yvonne Kor-kor and Martin there for dinner.
Uncle Dennis ordered the food and we topped up with whatever else we wanted.
Mei-mei's Salmon Oyaku Don
Ko-ko wasn't feeling well. But his appetite was still ok. He finished off his meal with an order of Kaisen Chirashi Don.
We got these ice-cream for free
