My Trip Back To My Hometown

Last June, I finally got some deserve time to go back to my emak's home back at Kuala Terengganu. It's been like 3 months from my last visit. My main reason to go back is to visit my grandmother from my ayah's side who was sick 2 weeks before. Being at home is such a bliss...doing nothing, chit chatting with my emak, ayah and my twins sister and bullying my special sister, Nana :). At morning, My sisters and I rushed to get our dose of nasi kerabu with ayam bakar. Yummy! But sorry guys, no picture to show.

Dinky Aeisyah was having a good time when we were driving around my village.

When you go to Kuala Terengganu, most outsiders won't go home before going to the famous Pasar Payang. Same goes to me! I need to find a new "kain sutera" because as a government staff, we are instructed to wear "batik" on every Thursday. Angel in disguise, now I have a reason to go shopping for "batik sutera"! If you go to the Pasar Payang at the first floor where all the silk shops are, your eyes will be eye-popping just looking at all the "batik sutera". However, a warning to any buyer who are not from Terenggau, all shop have a whooping price tag of RM3++ for a "batik sutera". You can bargain for almost half from their price tag, depending on the material and design. But, If you can speak Terengganu slang like I do, you will definitely get the lowest price :)

Lots of "sutera". Lots of colour spectrum. There are Batik Spa-Q, Crepe, Jacquard and so on. You just name it. But be prepare to be "pokai" after leaving the Pasar Payang!

This is my "batik sutera". Left is green and right is grey. These are jacquards with exclusive design.
