Manchester here we come!

why Manchester?
alkisahnya, now school holidays kat UK, so my zharfan tgh cuti ler, dok umah ajer...so hubby pun amik le annual leave seminggu - plan asal nak pegi cuti2 Paris, tp last2 minute, cancel la plak, sbb travel agent tu sakit ie masuk wad...frust wooo...sbb ingat nak celebrate wedding anniversary kat Paris..

so tukar plan..nak gi mana yer?
tak nak pegi jauh2 sgt nanti my kids penat in journey...last2 pilih Manchester, sbb naik train cuma 2 hours from Notts -Manchester

ada 2 main reason lah pegi cuti2 Manchester ni..

No 1 reason : jgn gelak yer..kami pegi Manchester sbb nak gi mkn2 ie nak gi mkn Nandos halal - kat Notts tak de Nandos halal, ..selain mkn kat Nandos and kami sempat jugak dinner kat one Msian restaurant yg agak exclusive...nanti me story mori..

No.2 reason : alang2 dh sampai Manchester, of course nak gi stadium lah Old Trafford tu, sbb tu kan trademark Manchester..and we did visit there!! siap masuk museum and ikut stadium tour tu!!!

reason sampingan - shopping -mopping ---tp at the end, tak de beli apa sgt pun, sbb kedai2 kat manchester tu sama jer dgn Notts..

jom baca citer cuti2 Manchester ni..

tgk tunggu train @train station Nottingham

ni pics dlm train...tambang train 54 pound return tix for me & family

 Zharfan memang akan bwk his activity book setiap kali naik train - Ariff tukang kacau :p

boring gak sbb 2 jam kan..nasib baik Ariff tido, so tak delah nak buat perangai ke apa ker..

mama & papa posing - Zharfan tukang snap pic

sampai kat Manchester lunch time...so we all dgn rasa penuh semangat +lapar cari nandos tu la...me memang plan awal2 ie me book hotel yg dekat dgn train station + kebetulan plak nandos tu pun dekat dgn hotel+train station

tp sbb we all kan strangers, 1st time jejak kaki kat situ...jenuh jugak bertanya org (3 org lah in total kami tanya)...padahal peta google map ada kat tgn...
last2 jumpa lah Nandos nyer..berpeluh jugak ketiak menapak sbb bwk 2 strollers, me tolah ariff in stroller, hubby tolak zharfan in stroller

and...terkejut badak gak....mak aih...ramai giller org tgh mkn kat Nandos ni...crowded beb..may be sbb lunch hour

nasib baik tak lama sgt menunggu ...kat Nandos ni self-service ie order +bayar kat counter, then staff nandos antar food to our table..

lighting kat dlm nandos teramat super malap..lampu kuning tu...ala2 romantik gitulah...aisey..

ni me snap pic time semua org sgt lapar tgh tunggu makanan diantar ke meja :p

tp puas ati dpt mkn apa yg dihajati--jgn tak tau, me & hubby both suka sgt dgn nandos ni, kat Msia we memang mkn nandos at least once every month :p

pic sblm mkn - ni set meal ie one whole chicken (medim peri2), 2 bottomless soft drink, one large spicy rice and me add on 2 regular spicy rice + one regular coleslow

and slps mkn..tak baik membazir - so licinlah ayam tu --selama dlm perut kami :p

lps siap mkn, we walked to the hotel --PALACE HOTEL.

me booked online..me google jer, gamble lah jugak sbb tak tau best ke tak, Alhamdulillah bilik sgt best!!

posing dpn hotel- ni terus posing masa mula2 sampai ie sblm jln kaki ke nandos..pic agak gelap sbb cuaca mendung

sgt lah besar bilik hotelnya!!! antara bilik hotel yg paling besar pernah me stay lah so far..(sbb kat Msia me & hubby memang suka jln2 tido2 hotel ni , so easily can make comparison bilik2 hotel yg pernah me stay :p)

ni pics bilik hotel and pic posing2 lah..

lps solat jama', kuar hotel, naik bas tambang 5 pound ajer for 4 of us return tix (at first nak naik taxi, tpp reception kat hotel kata kalau naik taxi kos 10 or 11 pound one way, so tak jd naik taxi lor), terus ke Old Trafford!!! memang excited habis lah...

next entry yer...kalau panjang sgt entry ni boring plak :p
