Last week...

We drove along the byway last week and only saw dusty areas with many construction works in progress. A lot more unfinished works incl. the sea reclamation projects. I guess in 5 yr time, it should look better & more structured. There're industrial areas that remind me of Bukit Kemuning Shah Alam. We thought of looking for villages or go to the island in the middle of King Fahd causeway that links Bahrain dan Saudi Arabia. We haven't seen any dates garden yet except at the roadside.



We also had a short peek at Lulu Centre for woman robe. A shop we entered offered reasonable price of about BD45 (approx RM450) but can go as low as BD35 for a 'bling bling' robe. That's cheaper than what you can get at the City Centre that can reach more than RM1k (could be different type of materials). OK lahh.. raya boleh pakai Arabian attire.. As usual, we had hypermarket sweep at Geant and Carrefour. And one think I realised, "orang2 kat City Centre lebih cantik & vogue dari yg kat Bahrain Mall!".. ha ha! I'm still comparing prices between Geant, Carrefour and Al-Jazira and looking for better milk & diapers. So far we have tried 5 brands of diapers/culottes and rejected Pampers. This week we change the milk coz the previous one (Milupa) seems not suitable for Fawwaz as he hardly poo. Limited choice, so we try Progress Gold. Kat M'sia minum Lactogen jek.. murah tapi bagus.

Our apartment is just few metres from the sea but the scenery doesn't look good to me lahh! Serabut sikit. Bolehlah untuk bersiar2 atau jogging atau exercise... But the dust may not allow you to go for outing in the open area oftenly especially new comers like us.


Kurma masih menghijau...


Yesterday (Sat) we went to the National Museum which has been opened since 1988 on the reclamed land. It was quite interesting to learn their history, culture, wealth, etc. Based on the pictures, we noticed that Bahrainis have an indian look with darker skin. But in person, they don't really looked so. Macam kita jugak kot, ada yg kuning langsat, hitam manis, sawo matang.. ha ha!

Pictures for this week....
