Singapore Visit

Sambungan.....

Malam selepas seharian kami di USS dihabiskan dengan meronda di Resort World, having dinner and shooping di Hard Rock Cafe. Syakir and abah got their tee and ibu got herself, her favourite glass shot. 

The next day, after we had our breakfast, we went to the hotel's pool. Oh! Syakir got excited immediately. no other appropriate pictures as we enjoyed our time there.


After we done with our berendam session, we went around other beaches. 

Around 1000 o'clock, we got ourselves ready to check out. Then we headed to Vivocity via sentosa express. Then, depending on the map, we took the train to the nearest train stop to get to Singapore Flyers. From the train station, we walked about 10 minutes. It's huge a a great invention, Subhanallah dengan kurniaan akal dan pemikiran Allah kepada hambaNya hingga tercipta amazing stuffs.
 
 

It's a pretty great experience, we got a cable of our own. puas Syakir berlari keliling. Lepas tu, kami terus bergerak ke Kampung Melayu untuk lunch before head to bus station. Restoran Zam-zam Nasi Beriyani n Murtabak yang sedap, mmg dah aim dah restoran ni, nearby a masjid (alamak, lupa lak masjid apa). So we both had nasi beriyani each sebab dah lapar n penat sgt n syakir had a pinggan of nasi putih jugak. happynya dia dpt mkn. Niat nak tapau murtabak tapi lupa, sedey...kena p lagi ni. lepas makan, solat jama' di masjid then we walked (again) to the bus station, dekat dkt Hyatt Serviced Apartment. We enjoyed walking sebab boleh explore more and more exercise (though I doubt I reduced weight 3 hari dkt sana). Happy to have my very own family time together!

TIPS : Isteri Hamil Perlu Di Urut


 Sebelum tidur adalah waktu relaks terbaik untuk Si Suami memanjakan Isteri yang sedang hamil. Walaupun dengan hanya urutan yang ringan dan lembut , ianya amat bermakna buat si isteri dan memberi kesan yang baik kepada bayi kelak. Urutan juga adalah sebagai satu cara terima kasih suami terhadap isteri yang mengandungkan zuriatnya.

Perlu diingatkan jangan diurut di bahagian perut dan sekitarnya , memadai dengan urutan di belakang , pinggang ,betis dan kaki.

Tips penting kepada suami, jika isteri mengandung, sewaktu bangun pagi, tanpa diminta atau isteri perlu merengek, cuba urut kaki dan betis mereka.

InsyaAllah, kehidupan seharian akan lebih tenang dan 'terkawal'.

Nota kaki: untuk yang tak mengandung pun boleh juga diamalkan..

Anak oh Anak ::Part V::

Bab anak kali ni kita share bab pemakanan anak. Pemakanan bukan sekadar untuk mengenyangkan anak tapi perlu dijaga demi kesihatan dan kesejahteraan anak. Prevention is better than cure.  So, dikongsikan adalah makanan yang boleh menyebabkan pembentukan mukus dan makanan yang boleh menghilangkannya. I prefered the REAL food over everything and natural approach in life.

Tapi, pengambilan makanan-makanan ni juga mestilah mengikut kesesuaian umur dan mengambilkira alahan.

To note:
  • Jus delima (buang kulit, blend dan tapis ) boleh dicampur dgn air suam , minum untuk hilangkan kahak (umur 7-10bulan) 
  • Madu asli (umur 1 tahun ke atas) boleh diambil bersama air suam juga boleh dicampur perahan lemon atau limau nipis, diminum untuk hilangkan selsema, batuk n kahak
  • Banyakkan minum air suam juga susu ibu
  • Tapi elakkan pengambilan madu / delima jika demam atau batuk disebabkan panas badan.Kerana madu/delima bersifat panas.
Kenal kahak/mukus anda :
  • kahak jernih = badan sejuk = dirawat dgn madu, buah delima dan kena makan makanan bersifat panas. 
  • kahak pekat/kuning/hijau = badan panas = dirawat dengan barli atau air asam jawa dan kena makan makanan bersifat sejuk.
Bagaimana merawat kahak/selsema:
  • Boleh try steam n percussion, teknik ini akan melonggarkan paru-paru dan mengeluarkan kahak. Amalkan secara rutin sekurang-kurangnya 2 kali sehari. Bersabar dan lakukan sehingga anak sembuh sebab ni natural remedy.
    *optional, boleh pasang shower water heater dan penuhkan toilet dgn wap, bawa masuk anak dan biarkan beberapa minit anak di dalam toilet (dudukkan dia dalam besen mandian bersama mainan nya supaya anak diam)
    Semua cara ini,  jika anak menangis
    biarkan saja, itu sangat bagus membantu melonggarkan paru-parunya. Terapi untuk orang dewasa.
  • Buat minyak bawang putih untuk disapu pada dada/tapak kaki anak.
  • Gunakan bawang putih dan letakkan dalam stokin anak. Biar stokin itu mempunyai pengudaraan yang baik, weave yang agak loose (macam berkait atau lubang2). Saiz bawang putih vary depends on baby's age, ketuk sikit dan masukkan ke dalam bunjut/kain lain sebelum dimasukkan kedalam stokin yang dipakai anak. SEBAB: bawang putih boleh mengakibatkan kepanasan, takut anak over-heated or tapak kaki kemerahan. Bawang putih berfungsi sebagai antibodi, memasuki sistem badan dan terus ke paru-paru dan akan mula berlawan dengan bacterial infections. It also enhances your immune system and fights viruses at the same time.
  • Sapu kunyit hidup pada batang hidung anak.
  • Sup tulang atau bone broth atau sup ayam sebagai penawar kerana mengandungi protein dalam bentuk cecair yang tinggi dan bertindak sebagai penawar untuk melawan virus (untuk anak 8 bulan ke atas setelah boleh memakan makanan drpd sumber protein i.e ayam) :
    Cara masak : Rebusan tulang (rebus tulang with lots of onions, garlic sedikit halia dan bay leave) put in carrots, leaks and celery.
    Selain itu, beri anak vitamin C, probiotics dan VCO (virgin coconut oil)

Singapore Visit

Syakir 2nd international visit, after Bandung, is Singapore last February 3rd, 2013. We've already bought the flight ticket to Singapore a year ago. So, after a brief preparation, we started our journey on February 3rd at 0500 as our flight time is 0730. We brought a pack of loaves bread, some chocolate flavour bread, biscuits and fruit for Syakir which brought us to carry along two medium-sized of backpack. We left home by our car, heading to Putrajaya Sentral and park our car there. So it would be easy for us when we arrived home. The parking rate for the shaded carpark is only RM5 per day so it is the most convenient and the best choice for us.

 We got into the train around 0520 bound to Bandar Salak Tinggi and managed to hop the 0540 bus to LCCT. As we arrived LCCT early at around 0600 at already check-in via website and in no rush, we decided to solat first before check-in to departure hall. Around 0630, after solat we went in to the departure hall. We departed at exactly 0730 bound to Changi Airport. Syakir was asleep for the whole an hour flight, there was a relieve for us!

We landed safely at Changi airport at around 0830, get off the plane and walked straight to the immigration terminal. The airport was huge and were all carpeted . I am so attracted to their recycle bin.
I dunno, perhaps for some people, it's a normal thing with no attraction yet for me it's 'something'.







We reached the immigration terminal and had a smooth pass through, orang pun tak ramai and the process kinda fast. Oh, missed the chance to shop there so simpan dlm hati dulu. Then, we headed to the information centre, get a simcard and ready to get going. Next, we hop onto the train to get to the Terminal 2 of the airport before we took the next train to city centre. We got ourselves 2 MRT card so we don't have to queue up everytime we are going to get into any public transport.
Using train is kinda convenient, we both love it! So, we decided to go around city centre. We first stop at Marina Bay Sands, stop for breakfast, late breakfast cum lunch. There's a halal restaurant we found, named 1983, if I remember correctly. Makan nasik lemak jugak. We did window shopping till we found my favorite boutique there, apa lagi, 1 kasut n 1 purse jugak hasil tangkapan. It's almost 1300 when we went out of the mall and heading to city centre. Plan nak g tour ke Merlion park and places nearby tapi sebelum tu berhenti dulu untuk Syakir feeding after his meal.

Baru nak keluar dari bangunan (yes, tiap kali turun train memang dlm building) tiba2 hujan pulak. So, plan terpaksa ditunda and we straightaway headed to Sentosa Island. Kena naik train balik untuk ke The Plaza where we could get the train head (Sentosa Express) to Sentosa Island. So, arrived Sentosa Island around 1430, check-in hotel tapi belum boleh masuk lagi as the check-in time is 1500. Found out that the hotel, Festive Hotel, is quite baby-friendly hotel. Siap check-in, pegi baby's room, nappy change and another feed for Syakir.
  









After we are done with Syakir's nappy changing and feeding, we went to the Maritime Experiential Museum. Oklah to visit, ticket was included dalam package hotel so layan jer..

 
 
Around 1500, kami pun balik ke hotel untuk urusan diri, mandi, solat and let Syakir have a rest. We were given a Family Deluxe King room. Oh, sungguh seronok. We have a king sized bed, a kid's bed yang tinggi and an expansive-spacious place for Syakir to run around. Masuk jer bilik, Syakir terus nak memanjat katil and asked for tv. Hurm, he's the boss kan..Our room picture
    



So, kami hanya berehat petang tu. After Asar, we headed to Beach Station for our night Song of the Sea show. The show started at 1930 so went out early to get our dinner there. Had our dinner there and Syakir demanded for 'nashik'. We enjoyed the show very much. Syakir get really excited with the show, lights, music and the water splashing. Went back to hotel at almost 2100 and we fell asleep till morning.
Syakir widely awake the next morning at the very early hour, around 0700 he' already awake with his normal request, tv. I think I need to cut down his number of hour in watching tv. After we solat, take a bath and get ready, we were out of our room around 0800. Keadaan pukul 8 sangat sunyi, we were among the earliest people to walk around resort world sentosa area. We had a simple breakfast, bread with milo and we tour around while waiting for our next checkpoint to be open. We are going to Universal Studio Singapore.
 


USS open only at 1000 so while waiting, we explore around Resort World Sentosa. Few restaurants available, even Malaysia Street pun ada but it's a non-halal restaurant. So do Chilli's there. We had plenty of bread for our breakfast. About 15 minutes before the door open, we waited in front of the entry. We were greeted by the woodpecker couple!

 

As we entered the theme park, we started with Hollywood Boulevard but as we enter too early, nothing is happening yet there so we walked straight toward Madagascar zone. Things get more exciting and we started to snap pictures. Our first ride; Madagascar: The Crate Adventure is extremely interesting. Syakir was measured thrice before we could pass through.

 

 




Then, we proceeded to Far Far Away zone where we tried the 4D: Shrek Adventure. Anyway, as we brought Syakir along, it's either one of us to experience the 4D effect. I chose to sit with Syakir, letting my hubby to enjoy it as I already enjoyed the 4D adventure while I was in States. It's a static sit tapi still have few motion and effect to enjoy. Seronok!

Then we walked up straight to The Lost World zone. They have few exciting rides. While Abah tried Canopy Flyer which Syakir get in, Syakir tried on Dino-Soaring' and he enjoyed it. They also have Jurassic Park Rapid Adventure if you have extra baju coz they'll make u soaked! I highly recommend u to bring spare cloth n enjoy all ride.


Then, we hop onto Treasure Hunter ride in Ancient Egypt zone. it's a car ride macam dkt Genting and Syakir be our driver. Sampai saja penamat, Syakir dah agak lapar and started asking for 'nenen'. I decided to sot down dkt area The Mummy to feed Syakir while Abah went ahead to got into Revenge of The Mummy ride. After just few minutes, Syakir fell asleep. Abah pun dah siap naik ride, it's a great ride according to him tapi memeeningkan sebab it's quite dark inside; i'd assumed it's another roller-coaster! As Syakir pun dah tidur, we decided to stop for lunch. Oh, for food, u got to worry nothing sebab banyak halal restaurant available. We went to the nearest restaurant, the Oasis Spice Cafe. There also surau nearby.
         

After we had our lunch, we went straight to the our first stage show in WaterWorld. Mind you, choose your seat accordingly your preference. It's either you'll out dry, semi wet or soaked. Quite a thrilled adventure I would say. Syakir first time showed his expression of anger and empathy emotion.




Then we went to look for Syakir's lunch. As we approached Madagascar zone, we heard an announcement that there'll be a show. We waited not more than few minutes when Alex, Gloria, Penguins and King Juliet made their appearance! Syakir was extremely excited, dance along with the music and clapping hands. That was our first picture snap with the characters. Then we entered Marty's Casa Del Wild, satu lagi restaurant halal with child-friendly. Grabbed a lunchbox for Syakir and we sat for awhile there as Syakir enjoying his lunch.
 

   


 

After Syakir finished his lunch, we proceed out tour to New York. We watched my favorite ever characters, Sesame Street. Before that, we stopped by to visit Steven Spielberg at Light,Camera,Action! as I said to my hubby, he should bring his student here. An eye-opening experience instead. Then from there, my hubby proceed to ride on 3D ride Transformer while Syakir and me waited outside (expecting Syakir to be let in?). 

After Abah done with his Transformer Ride, we strolled around Madagascar zone and Far Far Away Kingdom, hoping we could bumped with more characters. We rode King Juliet Party-Go-Round and met few characters more.



Tetiba, ibu rasa nak patah balik to Transformer Ride, naik jugak! Jadi, abah layankan aje and went back there, tadi dah suruh tapi taknak. So patah balik sana. Lepas ibu dah senyum lebar naik ride transformer, jalan2 dekat New York zone, keluar pulak all the characters n ibu's most favorite, Elmo. Syakir dah tidur pun tunggu ibu keluar dari transformers. And we decided to went back hotel at around 1800 lepas selesai shopping, grabbed few buns from the bakery. sementara nak keluar pun banyak characters around Hollywood area.

Malam tu, kami ronda around resort world and bought few merchandise in Hard Rock for hubby. There goes our day first day and second day in USS. The next day punya log in next entry la..panjang sgt dah..
