Tiring weekend - Tomb-sweeping day

Saturday

woke up @ 3am..
tomb-sweeping day for the mil's mother, grandparents and great grandpa went to first loc to tomb-sweep by 4.30am but due to super heavy rain n wind, we went back to uncle hse.
set off from there to 3 other tombs ard 7plus ..

its a day of trekking and hiking, with ants, sand flies, stick insects, fallen trees and hot hot sun.

Finish sweeping by 3pm (last loc @ choa chu kang cemetery) then rush to new house to wait for hob, hood, oven, mixer, sink, tap to arrive.
then hm to rest, bathe, dinner and prepare glutinous rice in 大肠 for the grandpa bday on sun.

Interesting insights as those tombs (my hub's great grandparents, great-great grandpa) as inscribed on the tombs are 明国 xxxx ...
At least buried for 70-90yrs ago ...
