Family reunion

Came back yesterday from the second Fong family reunion up in Genting's Awana and I'm beat! But it has been a terrific three days and the memories will last a lifetime.

It all started with everyone leaving late from KL due to Sis 3's car breakdown saga. When it was finally repaired after about three hours, it was almost 4.30pm. But never mind -- we all reached Awana finally and had our potluck dinner of chee cheong fun, roast duck, curry chicken, rendang, yam cake and much more. Yum!

The best news of the night was of course Sis 3 striking it big at the casino and that meant our dinner the next night was on her. Hurray! She also bought durians and while they were RM24 per kg, they were delicious!

The night's programme also involved Bro 7 and Bro 6 entertaining us, including the former getting us all to sing, "Here we are..." and "Ta mu chi..." Cringe-worthy but fun nonetheless.

It was also Sis 2's birthday so there was also a cake. We could all tell that she was really touched by our gesture.

Bro 1 came up only on Saturday but we were all in Genting the whole day and only met up in the evening. That night was another round of games and exchanging gifts.

It's always a little sad when such close-knit activities come to an end. I can't wait for next year's when it's Bro 6's turn to host.
