It turned out to be a lovely and warm September day. We had our weekly Friday morning trip to the library… and her normal routine of lunch and nap.
But today, after her nap, we took a little trip.
For one day/evening, Malaysians has descended upon Trafalgar Square! Food galore!
Nora didn’t really enjoy the tube journey in though. It has been awhile and she usually doesn’t complain. But today, at every stop she kept indicating that she wanted to leave!
Once we did get to Trafalgar Square, she loved enjoyed herself! I think it’s just the big space for her to run around. We even went into the National Gallery which to her was this huge and wonderful maze!
When I did managed to get her out of the National Gallery, we did start stuffing ourselves with satay, apam balik (peanut pancake) and karipap. And I tapau (brought home) fried noodles and also Laksa Penang.
It was a nice day out… until Nora got very tired.
Jules didn’t get there until about 5pm and Nora and I didn’t leave for home until almost 6pm. And when we did get to our stop, she didn’t want to walk any further. She was sobbing saying ‘Nora penat’ (Nora’s tired) and I didn’t have the strength to carry her home.
So we waited for a big red bus.
She’s fast asleep now and I’ve eaten my noodles and laksa.
How I miss Malaysian food… and how I’m glad that Nora just gobbled up all the food I got for her… apart from the bubur charchar… it was a bit too sweet!
