Since 2002, I had been unable to go out with my family during hari raya. Usually it's due to work commitments. Most of the time it's about laziness, I guess the feeling of having to work the next day usually drains your hari raya spirit away but this year it's a different story! The idea of not knowing that I will be needed to work the next day gives me the extra push to finally go out with my family and visit the other relatives! Actually it's fun as you're able to do some catching up on your cousins and uncles and aunties.
The first day of hari raya is usually the sobre and close family affair. I just went to my grandparents. Only two homes in one day very relax mode.
On the other hand, the second day was the visiting day to all the we knows in the family. I think it lasted for about 10 hours and we just managed to visit seven homes. Which is not productive in my point of view. Every home there were food to eat, kuehs and biscuits to munch and I felt I had gained all my diet during the fasting month! Anyway it's once a year affair and I feel it's worth the pounds regained haha!
As usual I'm not the photo friendly type and I don't have much photos to share but I hope you all had a good time this Hari Raya and thanks for stopping by! Maaf Zahir dan Batin...
