An Early KL Christmas


On Christmas Eve both of us expect to be standing outside in Victoria Square, Christchurch, New Zealand to take-in the annual YMCA "Christmas carol-sing." All hopes of a white Christmas are gone, however, since it will be summertime down under in New Zealand. (But, we're sure looking forward to the trip!) Meanwhile, here in Kuala Lumpur we celebrated Christmas early with Doug, Tracy, Reeve, Gabi and Rania on Thursday, Dec. 11th which happened to be a Malaysian holiday. "Christmas Dinner" featured Nancy's traditional menu with ham, twice-baked potatoes, frozen fruit salad and frozen ice cream/oreo dessert.

The day before our family Christmas gathering, December 10th, was Gabi's 5th birthday which we duly celebrated with birthday cake and presents.

On Sunday afternoon the 14th, Doug's family was able to "re-locate" back at their home in Bukit Antarabangsa since the temporary access road to bypass the landslide had been considerably improved. - rw

I too enjoyed this blog. The author is beyond talented. And the children are beyond cute. But what are those fish there that they are holding? is it a game of some sort? We here in America have never seen such a thing.
