2nd Trip to Stuttgart

Jaivyn 's passport was ready for collection on Thursday, so we made a 2nd trip to Stuttgart.
We took a 8.20am train and reach there at around 10am.
After collection of the passport, we went downtown for lunch, shopping, sight-seeing and of course photo shooting too.
Lunch was back to the same resturant we had during our first trip.
Food were delicious and price reasonable, tat's why we decide to go back to the same restuarant.
Hubby had buffet which cost only Euro 7.80 and me had just one serving costing Euro 4.50.
I won't mind going back to the same restaurant again if there is a 3rd trip there.
After lunch, we went shopping and then some photo taking.
Stuttgart look slightly different during Spring.
Flowers blooming everywhere. Looking so colourful and beautiful.
Weather was nice too. Cool with sunshine.
Took a 18.05 train back to Frankfurt.
Reach home at around 8.30pm with a tiring, weak and sick body.
Below will be a series of photos for your eye pleasure. Haha

On the way to Suttgart, see the blossom cherry, so beautiful.

Jaivyn just woke up from his sleep, looking so lost and blurr.






Papa squeezing so hard on Jaivyn's face, guess he must be struggling to break free.









A little horse ride in the shopping centre.


Look at the flowers behind, its so beautiful.





A more proper family pic, but I'm not in my best pose.







Lil Jaivyn enjoying sitting on Papa's shoulder.

Ceremony in Temple

We went to the Burmese Temple in Offenbach on Sunday.
We were there to witness the son of husband's buddy in becoming a monk.
He will be staying in the temple for a week, to learn more on Buddhism.
It's a grand event for Myanmar. One will have to be a monk for twice in a lifetime. Once during kid and one when turns to adult.
Guess you can see from the pic who is the one going for the monkhood.


A series of picture taken with friends going for monkhood too.



Hubby and friends having a little chat with one of the monk in his room.
Little Jaivyn and I were in there too. But can't understand wat they were talking.

Myanmar New Year 08

Happy New Year to all Myanmese !
13th April was the New Year for Myanmar. (more commonly known as Water Festival)
In Germany is unlike in Myanmar or Thailand where they play with water so vigorously.
They still play with water, but in a more orderly manner.
Festival was held on Saturday, eve of New Year.
There were concerts and were some food stalls selling Myanmar cuisine.
Whole event lasted till 9.oopm, closing with Lucky Draw.
Guess we were just not lucky enough to win a gift.

R'ber this girl, Jasmine. Jaivyn was so dear to her. She was carrying Jaivyn the whole day, giving me a good opportunity for Pause.

A family pic finally, but still not so perfect cos Papa's head was chop off.

Offer to Monk

Monks from Berlin were invited to our appartment over the weekend and we offered lunch to them.
After lunch, we had some prayers and chanting.
Friends were invited too for lunch. We made Burmese noodles called "Mon Hin Nga" for lunch.
Tasted yummy.
After prayers and chanting, one of the monk offer to tell my fortune.
He told me that I will be expecting some properties in the mid of April.
Wonder wat will tat be? Maybe its the Spore dividends giving out in mid April or maybe I might be expecting another baby ? Hehe....



Kids from friends with Jaivyn.
Jaivyn was the youngest, only 9 mths old while the rest are already between 1.5 to 2.5 years old.


Happy 9 mths old, Jaivyn !
