That nite (17th June 09) was very hard for me.. Not only I am having a very bad headache.. I got a shock with the place that we visiting. It's a 1st time for all of us include my in law. So we don't know what is going to happen and we don't know how the place looks like.
It was quite dark inside the house (I did not take any photo that moment due to my bad conditions T_T). I only can describe, I was not comfortable with the house, so do my son.. Lagi lah teruk my son.. He cry wanted to go home ;-p... When the relatives asking what my son talking about.. we just say.. 'Ohh.. he is just sleepy'.. (>_<).. Luckily none of them understand English.. We are tired but the relatives still want to chit chat (OMG).. I can fall a sleep waiting for them to chit chat.. and I don't know any single word they are saying!!! Imagine how I communicate with them???? T_T.... At last they bring us to another house.. Showing us our room.. Thank God.. this house much more better.. cleaner and yey!! My room got aircond ;-p.. and got own bathroom.. Ohh...Thank God!!!! But I tell you... their bed was so hard and covered with 'rotan'.. (Mak aiiii.... sakit belakang ohhh) So I used the thick blanket to cover the bed. It solved our problem that nite.
I need hot water to make milk for my son.. I ask for hot water.. They doesn't have hot water!! I confused for a sec... But they managed to boiled for me and I fill it up at my flask (Which I bring).. and now I need a cold water to mix with the hot water.. for 2nd time I got confused. They do not keep cold water.. actually don't drink cold water!!! OMG... they give me the hot water and ask me to air it so I can have the cold water.
I am ready to clean up myself and wanted to sleep.. they still standing in the room watching what we are doing.. Jeez....
At last they go out and I quickly close..locked the door.. When time to sleep, I still can hear they chatting with my in law.. siap lah.. I guess they will never sleep... Pity my in law!
***
In the morning.. I don't know what is going to happen. I just wait for my in law to call us. Coz as I said, I don't speak their language AT ALL!!! Few minutes later my in law come to us.. and telling me that they did not sleep at all.. force to chat with all the relatives last nite until morning.. Ayooooo....
1 auntie calling us for breakfast. We need to go to the 1st house we went last nite for Bfast..
Early morning eat rice!!! Siap with *ngok* ngok*.. T_T.. The worse part have to use chopstick eat rice!!!!! T_T (I am fail with that!!)....
I am start thinking.. Can I go through this?? Well I have too.. I am here already and I am traveling to another country with a different culture.. So I have to adapt their way. At that moment, I wanted to treasured all the experience I will go through (Even sometimes I am in tears in the heart)
After Bfast.. We going for a walk.. Yess!! Looking at the scenery.. all my worried gone!! Totally gone!!! I have the freshest air and the greenest field!! This village is beautiful!!!
My boy.. The most famous boy in town.. in FUJIAN!!! (Why I said that?? Everyway we go, start from stepping my foot at Fujian until time going bck home-KL.. every single people I met will say 'Hen ke-ai' (So cute!) and they start rubbing and pinching my boy face.. I repeat.. every single person!!!!! I'm so disturb by that... but what can I do.. He is too cute ;-p...
This is the 'Y' family territory.. My hubby sur name 'Y'.. All their generation is here... all the village is from the 'Y' family.. amazing!
They have an old house where their great2 family stayed before (Will blog about this later).. Every group of family will have their own old house.
Near by I can see another old house, which belongs to the 'Tee' family... and surrounding is all the Tee's generations..
Some photos of the 'Y' family territory..

The only shop at this area (The 'Y' family village.. I would say).. Thank God they sell Mineral water.. We borong all the water for ourselves hihihi..
Most of them are farmer.. They plant everything! You throw anything on the soil.. it will sure grows and healthy!
They plant Padi and all sort of vegetables!! They don't waste any inch of land..
