It was Easter holiday, Ayah n Nurryn has 2 weeks off from hectic school life..and the holiday that Mummy been looking forward in ages ...We all boarded a flight to Paris on 7th April 2009,in Jet2 budget aircraft..The journey took 1 hr 20mins from Leeds Bradford airport to Charles-De-Gaulle Airport..

We arrived at Mummy's goodfriend Aunty Filah apartment @ Rue De Leonard Da Vinci around 9.00 pm...the sun has just set in at around 8.00 pm, it's a longer day time in Spring..n warmer than Bradford..its the first time we were sweating out!!

River cruise

The next day we went on foot,exploring the city. The city was just beautiful, and it is a nice weather, except for few mild drizzle..Our big day is of course the day we went to Disneyland..Mummy was excited, ecstatic all in all delighted to be there..Except for Nuryn, who was terrified of Mascot..So it wasn't a good start, but she composed herself gradually..We stayed under the heat for more than 6 hours , and it was surely a dream come true...

With Fila infront of Arc De Triomphe

The rest of the week was spent touring around the city, eating, and bit of shoppping, going up to the magnificent Eiffel tower, get on a cruise boat. Being in the city is a much needed break of scenery.. Hope we can get to travel to more beautiful places in future with less intolerance mood from our little angels..

Heading to Bradford

The World of Flower Tots Garden

THE moment that Nuryn had been long waited for, one of her endless dreams come true..Meeting Fifi from the Flower garden..All the cast were there, from Primrose,Violet, Bumble, the naughty Stingo and his sadly batterred Slugsy..and the chattery Clairy the fairy..

WE left Bradford for Halifax(neighbouring province) just after lunch, went to the The interchange and hop on our trusted National Express Train..It only cost about 4 pound per pax, since it's considerably near..Arrived at Halifax moments later , (13 minutes)to be precised..

The show starts at 2.00pm, and we had ample of time to buy tickets, snacks and take few shots inside the magnificent Victoria Theatre..Nuryn was anxious from the thought of meeting the real Fifi, and repeated questions as "Is she BIG?"coz she is a kid who's scared of Mascots..But when the theme song piereced through the air, we were all in awed,. she was HUGE alright, compare to the Fifi that we see from the TV screen..But,her presence and the beautiful sets overclouded Nuryn's anxiety..Zeidan was behaved for the first time ever..Both eyes were transfixed and didn't blink ..

We took a walk on the way back to the train station, Since it was a Sunday, all the shops are closed except for cafe and restaurant..It is quite a scenery, and pleasant hill view..

The 1 1/2 hours show was a real treat for another awesome weekend in the country..

Baking in Blooming

First sight of flower sappling

Zeidan blossoming like the season

Never would have anticipated the feeling of content when the SUN showed up..Yes, after months of dark, chilly weather now the whole landscape is bright and clear. The blaring sun didn't even burn a layer of satisfaction..it's the most welcoming warm feeling in a cool place..Yes, it's definitely Spring in the air.

Nuryn is trying different shapes

Nuryn and Mummy occupied themselves so much in the kitchen and experimented with things we never tried before, Baking!!We baked brownies, cup cake, cookies and mouth-watering chicken pie..Nuryn was full of wit and enthused through out the process..Mummy is sure lucky to receive a little help around the house...There's noithing worth doing for a school break, since Nuryn is a bit under the weather. Proud with her creation

She made it a smooth process with constant interruptions of going back and forth to the sink to wash her hands for a hundred time..She couldn't let her hands get dirty that's for sure!!

Meanwhile , Mummy is trying to convince Zeidan to give up his "kopek" aka pacifier..but, it turns out it made a monster out of him and attacked Mummy with one of his damp wet, slimy with drool "kopek" and shoved it in Mummy's mouth..Sure, that's enough reasoning with a 2 year old boy.

Zeidan: "There! if it's comforting for me, than it will for u too Mummy"

Mummy: "What have I done to deserve this stinky punishment?"

Wintery Moments..

A quick rendezvous

On Monday , 1st February magic happens..Thick lumpy snow fall from the black sky..Psyched, it snowed..we embrace the moment with full of joy..and Nuryn wast the happiest of all..Zeidan couldn't understand the weather changes at first, but once he started to feel the icy snow flakes he couldn't stop wanting for more..We took a stroll down the street the next day, mesmerised, and breathless for the town had transformed into a beautiful white village .Everyhting looks white and pure..love it though it was difficult to get the stroller through the pavement..

Before After

Nuryn went to school as usual where other schools were forced to close down, and then she returned home with her exciting stories of snow fighting and built a snow man with her friends. Mummy was so pleased that she had that memory locked and carried in her tender age. We had a full swing activity till night falls in..More snow fights, and sleighing with Ayah's friends..it was the best time of all,more snow shower and more chilly we get actually..but we didn't falter, instead we stayed out and enjoy the the best time..

Nuryn the "snow angel"


Hot and cold

At the end of the week the weather is ever changing, one moment it snowed and the next was bright sunny..Another breathtaking view to engulf..But surreal to swallow..at the end of the week, it started to melt. During lunch time, when there's only the two of us at home, Mummy and Zeidan grab the camera and headed to the park, snapped some pictures and grasps every little bits of snow left on earth..and chasing pigeons like a hungry baby jaguar..

ONE Fun day at School

It was a fun-filled afternoon for our little man, Zeidan spent at least 2 hours in the Nursery Lister Primary School on Monday afternoon.. The teachers are nice and friendly, and the kids are overwhelmingly warm and helpful around Zeidan.. but he on the other hand, had his own world evolving round him with the abundance of toys and educational tools..




Mummy really wanted to bring him out of the class-room so he could experience the cart wheel, and play catch with the other kids but he was too self-involved with making his dough of cookies..



We end the trip with mild hesitation to go home, and it's about the same time that Nuryn had finished her class..we took a walk through the park on the way home.it was the most fruitful afternoon for all of us indeed.
