27th May 2016 and the history begins

Hoho, it takes ages for me to get this milestone written in this blog, like err...4 months?

No, 5 months. My goodness. 

It was sunny Friday . As per planned , my family  made our way to the mosque where I always picture my akad nikah will take place.


And yes, I get married on this date. Just cant believe it's happening.

So the ceremony was brief , thankfully the Tok Kadi didn't prolong our nervous feelings. Just went straight to the business and got things done quickly.

 

My husband (mioww) took some time to perform Solat syukur soon after we were being united. 

Well, I didn't cry at the moment, but the overwhelming feeling of relief was surreal. And being me, I like to keep my tears rather private, be it happiness or otherwise.

But again, we are married, finally! Alhamdullilah.

We had nasi minyak  ready at home to serve the guests. But I just cudn't stomach any food at the moment out of excitement.  And later ,we went to the beach for some outdoor photography. Well, it is well anticipated that we won't have this  chance for a quiet outdoor photography during reception later. So , this is it!

The reception was held in July, mainly to celebrate our big day with family and friends with great foods.  I just couldn't be more grateful when all our fast-track planning fell into place perfectly, especially when my preferred make-up artist and photographer were available even though within very short notice.



Alhamdulillah, He made our plans went smooth and easy.

16-Day Eurotrip 2016 Italy : Rome,Florence,Venice

1st- 5th May 2016

Ok.
So, we are done with Turkey and Spain . We have come to the final episode of our Eurotrip 2016.
So let's talk about Italy!

Italy has many attractions to visit, and most of attractions are statues of their ancient Gods.

The crowd of tourists and local visitors are very massive, but we took the opportunity to feel the warm vibe here.

The attractions with another is just walks away so we did loadsssss of walking throughout our days in Italy.

And having a taste of local gelate is definitely a must!!!

The cafe is everywhere and looks so cosy to spend some pennies just for a cuppa coffee.  And the waiter was charming when serving us and we were melting instantly. Oh Italian- boy~ 

Oh, the cathederal is also worth to be visited too. Well, most of the building is hundreds years old that historian (unlike me) will definitely appreciate it.

On the following day, we paid visit to the Vatican city. It was a loooooong queue to enter the building so we decided to skip the hassle and just snapping pics outside of it and observing the people.

It was another long walk for us to discover Hard Rock Cafe Rome. And it was worth it, definitely!

And last but not least, we visited Rome before we wrapped up our day.

Venice is one of the most interesting city that visited.

It was one of the most priciest lodging that we have to pay per night.  The city is lay back and offers completely different vibe and atmosphere as compared to other cities we have visited earlier. And I loooove it!

The sunset in Venice is stunning, that we spent the evening in awe enjoying the scenery. Ahh,.. I love to make this happens again...insyaAllah

16- day Eurotrip Spain :Cordoba, Seville & Barcelona

27th- 30th April 2016

And the next stop was to Cordoba! It was a brief stop on our way to Barcelona. The main  attraction here is the The Great Mosque-Cathederal of Cordoba (La Mezquita) . We arrived in the mid-day that was close to siesta time and we were just lucky as the halal shop received us as final customer before the closed. Fuh, alhamdulillah~.

We went touring and savouring the ancient muslim art around the building structure. It was truly breathtaking moment to take in.

And certainly to snap some pictures, as always.

It was just a brief walk around the one of the Andalusia territory , and we grabbed some memento before we hopped on the bus to resume the journey straight to Seville.

We also took two days to stay in  Seville. It is quite lay back city and we took time to enjoy the peaceful city. One of the attractions we went was Real Alcazar. It was long queue to enter the building and we decided to maneuver just outside the building. It was not that bad, tho.

And we also went to Plaza de Espana. Ok this place is real huge and it is sooo beautiful plaza especially in the bright sunny day.

The following day was to explore Barcelona city.  Ok, What is it about Barca? It is where Barca FC Stadium resides! Well, obviously~

And after having some shopping in the merchandise shop, we went strolling around the city.

Park Guell is also a must-visit attraction in Barcelona.

It is located wayyyy at outskirt of the city. And for those who appreciates the mother nature, this place will give you the satisfaction.

Apart from that, we went to Barcelona Hard Rock Cafe, one of the most happening Europe HRCs that we ever visited. And I cant help myself from being influenced to join others buying the merchandise too. Haha!

Oh yes, this final pic is at Sagrada Familia, the most iconic building structure of Barcelona. The interesting part of this attraction is that the construction of the building has taken over decades but as you see, it is still under construction. Hihi.
