25 December 2008-
We left KL for end of the year short vacation in Kangar, Perlis on 25 Dec 2008. There were not much traffic and the weather was cloudy all the way via North South Expressway. .
26 December 2008
After breakfast with Yadziz, Azad(Cruezz) and Syarul (the the first two are FMDC members) we made a quick tour in Kangar market and close by shops and around 10 am headed Padang Besar. We headed Padang Besar not to shop but to explore the town...but actually I was almost get myself a collapsible shimano bicycle...but frankly speaking I should have bought it!!regret??yes  It's cheap, only RM750..over here in KL I doubt I can get the same price for the same model as offered... 
We took the Chuping route on the way back to hotel in Kangar. It's very serene all the way back especially when we stopped at the look out tower provided by the roadside to enjoy the great lush green view of the sugar cane plantations that spread over 20,000 hectares. We passed the University Perlis Malaysia which was under construction, we enjoyed great sceneries all the way back to Putra Palace.
In late evening we headed Kuala Perlis for dinner. I wouldn't recommend going Kuala Perlis just to have dinner, (probably we were unfortunate, difficult to find parking space and the service for the food ordered was slow/inefficient) After dinner we strolled few minutes infront of the Putra Brasmana Hotel and headed back to hotel quickly as our adopted son and family already waiting for us.  Man and family dropped by, exchanged notes and experience, listened to loud music that made baby Zikri cries
 , had hot drinks and light meal for Salma, a family photo shoot session and left for Penang. 
27 December 2008.
Was a tiring day indeed . We had breakfast at Beseri's morning market also known as "Pasar Nat" on our way to Wang Kelian. Wang Kelian is located at the Malaysia-Thailand border and no passport is needed when crossing to Wang Prachan (Satun,Thailand) . This is only provided that we remain within the market area.  . Don't laugh if I were to tell you we bought glutinous rice (pulut) and 2 colorful straw bags to put the pulut in it.  Besides those things we bought nothing but only brought back the memories saved in 3 cfs. oh we had our lunch there too, digested and flushed out in Putra Palace wakkakaa 
On the way back to hotel, we stopped at Gua Kelam and only to find out the train ticket to the Nagarawan Cave sold out!!..and guess what??of all the place, we met pokcik , FMDC Vice-President in Gua Kelam We left Gua Kelam for Mata Ayer (hubby's friend so happened balik kampung and invited us for home made laksa treat) When we were just about to leave Mata Ayer, an sms received from Cruezz informing that he will be in Tasek Melati for a wedding photo-shoot session and had invited us to join. We went to Tasek Melati and had the opportunity to meet Saupix, another FMDC member who held his client's photo shoot session there too. We didn't wait for Cruezz as we had planned to saunter Kangar town just before we leave for KL the next day. 
28 December 2008
Bye bye Kangar..we checked out around 10.30 a.m and headed KL. We stopped for breakfast in Pauh, a unique morning market, I should say, as the activities of the market that sells all kind of things were carried out under the rubber trees.
Alor Star and Gurun were the towns that we had stopped before we safely arrived home around 11.30 pm.
Images will be uploaded in stages (God willing)
