Return to Janda Baik - Che Ani's Wedding
We were at Janda Baik last weekend for my Niece's wedding.
The bride, Sharifah Fatimah Az-Zahra or known as Che Ani to us and the groom, Syed Harris Irsyad were celebrated in a day long Garden Concept wedding at Pak Habib's Taman Hana Wadi Hussein in Janda Baik. Che Ani is my cousin, Kak Ana's (Ummi Hana) and Abg Habib (Pak Habib @ Syed Hussein Al-Attas) daughter. This was a chance for us to meet close and distant family members to what may not be a frequent event at all. KN was busy taking photos of the surrounding while I was busy catching up with family members whom a couple I haven't met for about 20 years.
The place (Taman Hana Wadi Hussein) has tremendously changed since the last time we were here a year ago for Che Ani's engagement. The new house is now erected and there are a few more small sized houses/chalets built for family and friends.
Laksa Johore was among the Traditional Johor dishes served at the wedding. Other dishes include the Janda Baik Cendol, Laksa Asam Penang and rice. Ghazal was played throughout the ceremony and guests were allowed to picnic and swim in the ever tempting sungai within the compound of Taman Hana Wadi Hussein.
Day 2 - Janda Baik - 28 May 2005
Di sebabkan malam tadi hampir semua orang tido lambat, maka ramailah yang terlepas semayang subuh ekekekek... Kuar-kuar tengok sungai (konon nak melayan perasaan tepi sungai) terserempak dengan 2 ikan duyung (S ngan H) tengah celup-celup kaki dalam air... aku apa lagik... terus ler pi join diorang sekali.. kerja-kerja menambak sungai untuk buat empangan bermula 7 pagi dan berakhir 11:30 pagi. Makanan pagi tu was nasi lemak and puding castard.. sayangnya sambal nasi lemak tu sikit... sedap woooo... pekat!
Puan A came by and everbody, hahahaha kene plak amik IQ TEST!!! Nasib baik IQ ku betul2 at the first point dalam kategori GOOD. Hahahah saspen gak kalau2 IQ rendah kan? After IQ test, we played Gestures, aku tak main sebab perutku kembung (as it is memang sentiasa kembung pun!) So, jadik photographer ler... lepas tu main Statue Dance aka Mikey dopey dance game ekekeke. Memang seronok tengok Mike menari... macam ulat.. menguit-nguit hahahaha. Souvenirs were handed to everyone and then semua start packing... nak balik dah... uwaaaaa! Lepas ni dah takde dengar bunyik sungai masa tido.. best woooo hehehehe... ok la, lain kali bleh datang lagi ke Janda Baik... walaupun takde pun jumpa janda di sana....eh ada janda la... tapi biarlah rahsia kuang...kuang...kuang... janda jahat se Malaysia tau...
Day 1 - Janda Baik - 27 May 2005
This is the first time CS staff goes out on a company retreat. Our destination - Janda Baik @ "Taman Hana, Wadi Hussein".
Everyone gathered at Projet Gombak before moving in convoy to Janda Baik. Arrived at Janda Baik slightly after 1pm - hahahah terlepas junction to Janda Baik sebenarnya.... heheheheh.samapi-sampai terus
kemas-kemas and ada yang tak sabar2 nak mandi. Puan N brought pulut kuning, nasi impit, rendang and kentang goreng berlada... wahhhh sedap wooo and someone brought nasi lemak.. makan sama-sama and then Tuan Syed Hussein Alattas spent about 2 hourswith CS staff bercerita tentang sejarah Taman Hana, Wadi Hussein dan falsafah-falsafah hidupnya yang ingin dikongsi bersama 'adik-adik' dari CS.
That night we had BBQ - Ya Allah makanan punya la banyak... yang gemuk makin gemuk... yang kurus tetap kurus jugak sebab yang gemuk dah perabih makanan depa. Candles and pelita were lighted around the BBQ area creating a very cosy ambience. Ada sesi nyanyi menyanyi sambil gitar dimainkan oleh TL maka terserlahla bakat-bakat penyanyi yang terpendam di kalangan staf CS... muahahahahahah!
Lepas penat melalak, ramai yang pi jalan-jalan keliling taman Pak Habib yang dipenuhi kolam dan pokok-pokok dari lebih 30 negara. Ada jugak yang main JENGA... ahahahaha aku antara yang terlibat dalam perlawanan penuh emosi JENGA. Tapi ada jugak yang dah duk dalam hutan tepi sungai... masih nak bermesyuarat hahahahah jangan marah ye!
Last-last semua terbongkang kat tengah hall tido.... tak sabar tunggu esok! Nak berenang beb!
