El Clasico: eid

how the baju melayu celebrate eidulfitri, middle east-style

my 2nd consecutive year celebrating eid in the adopted UAEland. millions of metres away from family and old friends, but alhamdulillah new friends and colleagues help to make this year's hari raye quite an eventful affair.
on the menu was the custamory eid prayer, a morning breeze at the Creek, open house, open house, and more open house; the office eid mubarak nite + duit raye :), and then my housemates sadly decided to organise our own open house (right pic)

a photo chronology was imminent. lets go to 'less talk, more rock' mode
