oh oh... we are down to only 2 remainder grandparents.

Julie's grandmom passed away on 18th Feb 2006, the very First Day of Chinese New Year!... well, she was over 90... so she had a good long life...

so this year's chinese new year... wasnt really a celebration... more like a hethic oportune time... since she was buried yesterday, on tuesday... so all the cousins and uncles who had came up for a reunion could go back in time to start working again...

eye opening to see the crematorium in taiping... superb view... of rolling valleys and hills... very nice place to have a resort instead of a memorial park... :p

solemn... funeral... quick though...

according to Julie... it might be the last time she will see all her aunties and uncles + all her cousins all together... cuz after her grandmom's gone... there isnt any reason to meet... so we will see next year...

so there's only my grandmom (mom's side) and Julie's grandmom (father's side) left...

but anyways... after hearing on the radio the massive "JAM" awaiting us in the North-South Highway... we decided to extend another day in Ipoh... and came back this morning... it was a wise decision and the journey only took us 2 hours...
