Since early last week Shahril has informed me that we were going to his friend's open house on Sunday. It was his friend's first time hosting since he just got married sometime last year, so naturally we were excited to go eventhough this means going all the way to Klang.
Shahril tried to call his friend before we went out to get his advice on direction but he didn't pick up. So, armed with a map which he had given in an email and also with a kadang-boleh-on-kadang-tak-boleh-on GPS navigator, we set out for Klang.
Took the SILK highway, on to SKVE, down to NKVE and then reached the Shapadu's Bukit Raja toll.
Just as we were 7 kilometres (according to the GPS navigator which could be switched on that day) away from the friend's house, he called back.
Turns out his open house is NEXT Sunday!
Obviously Shahril's getting a little too old. :p
But then I realized it's ME who's getting old (although I'm always 3 years younger than Shahril, let's not forget that) because when Shahril turned to me and told me that the open house is NEXT week and that we have travelled FORTY kilometres just to turn back, I did not get upset! In fact I was not even annoyed! (I'm a 'panas' person, for those who don't know me.. And I usually get annoyed very, very easily. So, this not getting mad is new).
We both just laughed, took the next turn and stopped by at the nearest fast food outlet we could find.
The hikmah is, the kids got to have their lunch at KFC all the way in Shah Alam. :)
