As expected the kids woke up late; as did we. It was 9 when I woke, followed by Kyle. Meryl finally woke up at 9.30. We quickly changed as we wanted to give our lungs a treat; fresh air at Macritchie. We went to pick up granddad and tagu then set off for the tree-top trail. The walk was very easy and scenic but too muddy from the rain yesterday. We walked for about 1 half hrs before reaching the tree-top but it was well-worth it as the view was quite spectacular from the top. It was only on the way back that it took a strain on the kids, esp Meryl who had been walking non-stop which wasn't an easy feat on her tiny legs. Yet she did not complain unlike the brother who whined and whined about how far it is and when are we stopping and that he wants to eat roti prata.
We decided on the way back to sent the hubby as a forerunner to get the car and pick us up halfway. Kyle stubbornly went with him which slowed him down considerably and ended up getting a tongue lashing from both tagu and me. We rushed Granddad back and the kids had a short swim before eating their lunch.
We were back at granddad's place again for dinner but the swim was cancelled as it rained very heavily. Feasted on popiah, ba kut teh, braised duck and chng tng. The kids played to their hearts content as we stayed on till the match between Man U and Everton ended (2:1) at 10. Tonight is the 1st night that Meryl is sleeping on her own in our bedroom...so far so good..
