Smooth sailing journey on a train

My kids and I have travelled with many kind of transportation to go back to Kelate..my hometown. We've travelled by car (it's obviously common, rite?), by aeroplane, and also by bus. But, travelling in a bus on a 7-hour journey for an adult accompanying TWO kids can be very annoying and tiring. That's why, I only tried it once, and never had the courage to travel by bus in the near future with my kids anymore. It happened early January when DH is already in KB for a short-term assignment, and I have to go back to Kelantan on my own. Since the arrangement was kinda last-minute-arrangement, the flights tickets are way expensive than it should be. So, being a cheapskate, I brought Ecah and Wawan to hop into an afternoon bus from Putrajaya to TM. It turned out that Wawan need to pass his stool in his diapers. So, go figure what happen next. Hahaha...

So, this time around, I need to go back on my own again since DH didn't get the leave approval until 17 Dec. Bus tickets were already sold out from 26/11 till 7/12. Do you know why? All because of school holidays and Raya Haji on 8/12. So, I didn't have much choice but to buy train tickets. And the result is ... a tiring journey with longer duration... but somehow .. much better than travelling by bus. ;)
