Parent Help Day @ Burr Coop

Today is our schedule for Parent help day and line leader at Kenes school, this is my 1st time become parent helper and Kenes 1st become line leader. What is Parent helper and line leader? as parent helper and line leader we have to come early to the school preparing the classroom before the other children came and greet them when the door is open, and we have to bring the snacks for everyone and of course preparing them too, and as a line leader Kenes got a special spot when circle time, and I have to clean up the table and the dishes before and after snack time(yeah that's what we do in here since there's no special assistant or nanny to clean up the classroom or assist the children to go to the bathroom like in Kenes previous school in Surabaya), but for me it's really fun being a parent helper, the kids are sooo smart for their age, and finally I can see how's Kenes doing in the classroom. Too bad today is raining so we can't play at the playground but the children still enjoying their playtime in the big room and too bad I forgot to bring my camera...hiksss...(pdhl udh disiapin)

It still amaze me how smart the children was, even some of them can remember my name when the class is over... ^_^

New England Aquarium

Minggu kedua di Boston acaranya masih jalan-jalan, tgl 27 Agt kita ke New England Aquarium(NEAQ) lokasinya di 1 Central Wharf Boston. Tiket masuknya : adult $20.95, student $18.95, child(3-11) $12.95 ini blm termasuk tiket IMAXnya kl mau nonton berhub kenes ga hobby nonton jd kita ga beli tiket IMAX, kl kita jd member di Boston public library bisa dapet pass buat masuk NEAQ ini jd cuma byr $8 tp buat tgl2 tertentu ajah, cuma sayang kita telat taunya :p

Begitu masuk main entrance kita bisa langsung liat Penguin Exhibit, lucu-lucuuuu deh penguinnya disini ada 3 jenis penguin : The African penguin, The Rockhoppers(rambutnya punk-rock trus ada warna kuningnya), sama The Little blue penguin(penguin paling kecil didunia), diexhibit ini selaen ada presentasi ttg penguin tsb kita bisa liat jg waktu penguinnya dikasih makan kenes seneng bgt niy ngeliat ini makanya kita bisa agak lama disini.

abis dr sini kita liat mau liat Giant Ocean Tank yg letaknya ditengah2 Aquarium dr lt 1 sampe lt 3 kita tinggal  muterin tanknya buat liat ikan2nya sesuai kedalaman(kynya di sea world jg ada siy mirip gini tp ini lebih gede). Center of attentionnya tank ini ada si Myrtle green sea turtle yg gedeee bgt sizenya krg lbh 5feet, myrtle ini udh tua umurnya sktr 70th dia udh jd penduduk aquarium ini sejak aquarium dibuka...ckckckck... tuaan dia dr pd gw :p sayang kita ga sempet ambil fotonya si Myrtle ini, selaen Myrtle ada lebih dr 600 binatang di tank ini spt sand tiger shark, barracuda, cownose rays dan ada sea turtle lainnya tp ga sebesar Myrtle. Ow ya sepanjang jalan muterin tank ini kita bisa liat yg binatang lainnya jg ky Giant pacific octopus, lionfish, and byk lg deh macemnya, ada jg tempatnya starfish yg selalu rame dgn anak2(ini jg sama ky diseaworld).

Udh puas liat2 didalem kita lanjut keluar ada Atlantic Harbor Seal Exhibit disini tempatnya si Northern fur seal, tp k exhibitnya siy biasa aja ada presentasinya jg sama bisa liat sealnya dancing, jumping, high five 'n bisa minta kiss jg samalaah ky di Ancol....hehehe...

Sebelum pulang kita liat exhibit Amazing Jelly, waaa keren bgt yg ini macem2 jellyfish ada disini bagus-bagus2 deh ini jenis2 jellyfish yg ada : moon jellies, sea nettles, up-side down jellies, comb jellies, Palauan Lagoon jellies, dan ada lg kynya yg laen jenisnya cuma sayang kita cuma bisa foto satu jenis aja niy it jg lupa yg namanya apa yah hehehe... Ngeliat jellyfish ini ga bosen2 deh sesuai nama exhibitnya kita emg bakalan amaze bgt sama jellyfish exhibit ini, selain tnyata jenis jellyfish ini macem2, unik2, bahkan ada yg jellyfishnya keciiiiil bgt tp bisa idup...kkkk... sampe kepikiran gmn siy caranya jellyfish ini hidup...amazing bgt... kapan2 masih pengen ke Aquarium ini lg buat foto2 si jellyfish ini....

KFC for Dinner

Kemaren siang gagal masak ayam goreng tepung(bikin ayam goreng aja gagal.... blg aja ga bisa masak :p) so gw putuskan utk beli KFC aja deh buat dinner selaen kita jg blm pernah nyobain KFC versi sini 'n dr kmrn Ipan jg kynya pgn tp blm sempet2 beli, plus sore2 tuh kliatannya cuaca bersahabat stlh dr pagi ujan. Pas gw ajak kenes jg excited mgkn dia pikir KFC disini bakal ada playgroundnya ky di Sby ato Jkt hehehe waktu di Sby kan dia hobby bgt ke KFC yg di A Yani  krn ada tmpt maennya, blm tau aja dia kl KFC ato McD disini ga ada playgroundnya... :p.

Sebelum berangkat cek dulu KFC terdekat dr rumah ada di 335 Walnut st, cek digoogle map buat mastiin ancer2nya turun dimana kapan hari udh pernah lewat siy waktu kita mau ke Arsenal Mall cm krn ga tlalu merhatiin jd ga tau musti turun dimana so kali ini hrs jelas dl niy turun bisnya dmn, sktr jm 5an gw n kenes brkt dr apt kita naek train dl sampe di Newton Highland trus nyambung bis 59 tnyata perjalanan kesana ga ada 30mnt cepet jg. Pas masuk KFC kenes lgs komen "Haaa... this is the KFC mommy? I don't think so..." hahahaha... dia kaget ngeliat KFCnya secuprit kecil bgt and yg pasti ga ada playgroundnya...kecewa deh dia kacian kenes tp abis dr situ gw tawarin mau beli chocolate candy ga disupermarket eh dia ga mau jg dia blg "Nope, one by one mommy.... I wanna go home ajah" mksdnya dia satu tempat aja ga pake mampir2 lg...hehehe :p ya udh deh akhirnya kita pulang 'n udh dingin bgt jg siy suhunya mgkn sktr 7 derajat brrrrr.... berasa bgt pas nunggu bus untung pas sampe distation trainnya pas ada.... perjalanan selesai.... sampe rmh jm 6.30 kenes langsung minta makan KFCnya dan abis 2,5 potong.... laper ya nes????kkkk... skali2 gpp deh ga sering2 jg dia makan KFC.... akhirnya kesampean jg kita beli KFC tnyata rasanya sama ky di Indo hehehe  ;-) ow iya cm bedanya kl disini ayamnya ada yg Grilled dan mereka ga jual french fries adanya potato wedges.
