Nasi Tumpeng and more presents for Pasha

Continuing from Off To Jakarta

Since we took an early flight from KL, we have lots of day time to spend that Saturday in Jakarta. As a tradition in Mamapasha’s family, the special food for the birthday person would be the Nasi Tumpeng Kuning or a direct translation would be the Yellow Conical Rice. Below are some photos of the Nasi Tumpeng and its accompanying dishes…

Next pictures to the Nasi Tumpeng are fried tempeh, bumbu bali.. agaknye la.. which was tofus and eggs in some soupy sauce, fried ikan teri, ayam kremes (fried chicken) and mixed vegetables… quite a complete meal ha…

Those are the photos of us enjoying the Nasi Tumpeng including Pasha even though he was, most of the time, preoccupied with his Thomas cake. He did take a few mouthful and that was it. Well, for your information, Pasha is not really big on eating… payah betul nak bagi makan Pasha nih…

here are some shots of Pasha taking a break as well as “torturing” his uncle Nanang with the balloon blowing “game”. You could also see that he still has the fascination for fans… There must be something about a fan that could really grab his attention like no other thing…

Later that night, Pasha was treated to another round of presents from his grandma, aunties and uncle. There was a new Thomas the Tank Engine to replaced the two that were lost somewhere on a ferry to Dumai and in IKEA. There were some puzzles, coloring books and t-shirts.

Pasha’s birthday celebration has gone to round 2!

Off to Jakarta

Continuing from Happy Birthday Pasha.

We arrived very early at the KLIA. Some shops were still closed and the check in counters would not be opened until 6:00am. We checked ourselves in via the check-in kiosk but for some reasons whatsoever, after spending many minutes trying to figure out how the machine works, it was unable to dispense the boarding pass… So, we still had to go through the manual process at the counter. Later I was told that it could be running out of pass… Oh well…

So, to kill the time, we had a little breakfast (with a big price tag) somewhere near the MAS check in counters so that it would be easier to see when they are open…

Right at 6:00am the check-in counters opened and we got our boarding passes, with the seats that we selected during the self check in at the kiosk. At least this one worked much batter than the one used by AirAsia that could not even read the passport details… One up for MAS.

The flight was on time and we boarded the aircraft via the bridge from the terminal. No more walking to the aeroplane like we used to do when we took AirAsia at the LCCT. Not long after the flight took off, we had our breakfast served. The choice of food on the MAS flight might be limited but the great thing is that the set came with a complete main dish, a drink and a dessert. On top of that, you can order additional drinks for free. Imagine how much it would have cost you if you were having that on an AirAsia flight… Times 3 pax… It just does not make sense…

Pasha woke up very early for the 7:50 flight to Jakarta. Shortly after breakfast, he went back to sleep…

Now a little note about our flight. When we hunted for the tickets to Jakarta, the MAS and AirAsia tickets were about the same price. We decided to go for MAS due to:

  1. Depart from KLIA instead of LCCT. KLIA is way much more comfortable compared to LCCT.
  2. We did not have to talked to sour faced check in staffs at the AirAsia counters (especially in the morning). The MAS staff who checked us in was very cheerful at 6:00am.
  3. We did not have to worry about paying for extra baggage as the allowable weight by MAS is much higher than AirAsia.
  4. We did not have to worry about paying extra for food.
  5. Kids would always get to board the plane first without having to pay for such privilege.

That should be enough reasons. Do you still want to go on AirAsia? Only if MAS have more flights, AirAsia could be flying only goats and cows… lalalala….

Happy Birthday Pasha

Posted on the April 17th, 2010 under Pasha by papabear

Pasha turns 3 today! It was just passed midnight and Pasha was still wide awake watching his favorite “bedtime” videos… I was already enjoying my trip to the La-La Land when I heard…  “Happy Birthday Pasha!” from MamaPasha…

It was the moment that Pasha had been waiting for since yesterday… Well, that yesterday was only a few hours ago… But, I guess, for a 3 year old, few hours could feel like a few days… The Thomas cake was specially baked by none other than the owner of d Cuppies herself, MamaPasha. The moment that Pasha had been wanting the most was the blowing of the candle and finally. that morning, he did it… Dah besar anak ku…

Next came the time to open the presents. MamaPasha bought the three most wanted Chuggington characters for him. They’re Wilson, Brewster and Koko. I said most wanted since it would be extremely difficult to but them at any toy store in KL. Luckily MamaPasha managed to get all three just in the nick of time…

Anyway, Pasha took Koko first and did not know that Wilson and Brewster would be the surprised for his Birthday. In short, he was elated to find them that morning… So, now he has all three of them… Ans Koko is still his favorite engine.

As for PapaBear, I was still half asleep at that time but waking up at that moment was priceless…

For Pasha, we would be having the birthday party in Jakarta tomorrow and we are sure that he would enjoying another round of candle blowing time soon!

Happy Birthday my son! May you grow to be a great person! Amiin…
