Its 清明 next wkn. As we've to head back to msia for an event, therefore, P-I-L had planned to go 扫墓 at an earlier date & they've plan it today. Sis is away for vacation therefore it does not clash with the plan of ours.. Guess gotta have a wk later to go for my late dads'.
The rushing hours... from office to mums place & rush back at 4pm. Initially advice to reach home by 4.30pm. Lucky i've plan earlier, if not i dun even have the time for a change. Reach home abt 4pm & saw uncle just reach the carpark parking his van.. sooooo early ? Well, headed home for a change .. aiyo.. no time for a bath. haiz...Unpack & pack our things, water, tissues, torchlights, etc etc etc.. headed down to my P-I-L house to help carry the foods & 'moneys' down to uncles' van. Chop chop, we drop by TBM to purchase coffee & some snacks for grandpa & grandma & there we headed down...
Its quite a kind of good gatherings for siblings. You can see how gather they are, how co-operative & filial they are when comes to preparing the foods & etc.. They will distribute the chores well like who is to clean the tomb, who to pluck / clear the rubbish, who to place the offerings & who to pray to the god of earth / light the joss etc.. We, the kiddys there will act as the labours haha.. Theres sons, daughters, daughter -in-law, grandsons, granddaughter-in-law to visit them.. they should be happy.
We were there from 5plus to abt 7plus.. there we're having picnic with grandpa at the cemetry using torchlights .. haha. Oh ya.. even the mosquitos are having quite a "full" time too with me around.. gotten 7 bites from them.. arrhhh... =.= ''' .... What a sweaty, tired but enjoyable day.. with laughters throughout the journeys :D .......
