BEIRUT TRIP

Beirut? It was so wonderful, Beirut stands on the site of a very ancient settlement going back at least 5,000 years. Everything was sooo eye and breath catching for me. No wonder it is called "City that Would not Die." it is also known as "Paris of the Middle East." Although our trip was just for few days, I would say that we cover almost the major part of Lebanon. Thanks to Zaireen a.k.a Cik Senah for her effort come out with good itinerary within short time of period. Started by half day leave on Thursday, flight departed around 5.00pm form Doha and the journey took almost 3.00 hours.

Lebanon located at GMT +2 so we are one hour later than Doha.(ade org silap bgn awal...huh...terlalu awal...x pnh dia bgn ari jumaat seawal itu!!) Arriving Rafique Hariri International Airport was around 9.00pm. Kak Wasitah managed to arrange a driver prior to our arrival thru her Lebanese office peer.It seems me who doesn't contribute anything for this trip, so not a big wonder la kalau next trip they don't wanna include me huhu.

With the driver waited for us in the airport upon arrival, so we were driven to the pre booked suites. Lucky us that the hotel located in the center of town i.e Hamra Street. I would say it is quite happening street la jugak with rows of shops and so..

Generally Lebanon is very compact city, as we can see people residing and development are everywhere. Their medium of communication is Arabic and Frech as their 2nd langguage. In 3 days we covered Baalbek, Anjar, Zahle on the 1st day, and2nd day to Bettedein, Saida and Tyre, and last day to Jeita Grotto,Byblos and tour around town. On and off we also went to Corniche, Downtown and Beirut also!! Since picture worth thousands of words....enjoy our snaps!!

Day 1

Day 2

Day 3

Apart from enjoying the beauty of the scenery, what is new for me was to see the way how Christians there practice in very conservative way. Now i realised that they r most similar to Muslim do.A friend of mine told me over there even Muslims and Christians they are just like brothers...no bound to be

Good News that Blessed

I was waken up so early this morning by 2 consecutive text messages from my sister and brother, the first one has already waken me, but I just ignored since it was around 4.30am, but as i was about drifting back to catch my sleep, the second one came in couples of seconds after . It somehow put a big question mark in my head, my curiosity kills my sleepy eyes. I woke up and grab the phone, I could see that both of massages were from my brother and sister in Malaysia. Heart beaten even faster, but my adrenaline dropped as I saw the text. Both of it were telling me that my mother's wound has been healed, they were both so happy until they can't wait a bit later to pass me this news. Ohh...I'm smiling(while sleepy). Thanks God.

I'm sure she (my mother) could be happier than we are. She had this wound for about more than a year ago, as what doctor told, it was because uncontrolled sugar level due to her diabetics. She (and us also of course) seem so worry over this as the wound got deeper and deeper. It was kind of pity to hear when she told me that sometime she even have a sleepless night. because of doesn't want to be admitted in the hospital, she planned not to tell her specialist regarding this until my sister plays her role to get her friend's brother to help her with this. She needs to pay her visit every other day to the hospital and to replace the bandage until the wound finally heals.So after this there will be no more visit to the hospital to change the bandage anymore

I replied their messages two hours after, and my sister quickly replied telling me that my mother is sooo..happy and suggested me to give her a call. Yes she is, she even invited all the nurses there for a lunch together some when this week (huh!! makan laaagi). By the way it's always good to hear that they are in good state, especially when currently I'm not around them to see what had happened. See...even though i woke up so early but all the day through I feel sooo blessed. Hope it will be forever....Ameen.

Exploring Middle East

Last week was sooo busy week at work, sigh!and it killed me... i hope that explains why I hardly update my blog.But...next weekend we planned to for a holiday getaway again....this time our destination is Beirut Lebanon. Heard it's cool! Gonna find out soon. Since we are already in Middle East so...it is quite reasonable to explore it, because that might cost you much if u travel a long way from Malaysia. This time around will be 4 or 5 of us in pax. Hope it is nice..
Looking back where I started in Middle East which was 0n Nov 07, started in Dubai for few months and moved to Doha for good, beginning in the mid of March till now. Its been a year!!...well so it is reasonable enough to explore right hahaaha.. By right apart from Dubai, I have been to Oman and Bahrain. Last night when I attended dinner of "get together" we were informed that MAQ will conduct an Umrah and visit trip this coming April, aha...sounds interesting... really looking forward to follow. So another one will be slashed in the list (eventho been there before).

Let see what I have explored so far! Fasten your seat belt!

Dubai....one of the most popular city in United Arab of Emirates,being known as heaven for shoppers. Owns an advancement in developments, wish to have all of " the most" so called things in the world...so far they have "The Highest Building"..."The most expensive"..."The ...??"...and so on. The sky crappers in Dubai are growing so rapid. and i hope that explains why 60% of the world cranes are all in Middle East. Not quite sure bout the rest, but it is indeed shopping paradise!

Next is Oman, We travelled to Musandam part which is on the East side of Oman. It’s a curious observation about travelling in Oman is the moment u see the rock mountain that hugs the roads to Musandam. Musandam is separated from the rest of Oman by the east coast of the UAE, this is a very beautiful place with its cultural eccentricities is well worth visited. The dhow that we took served us lunch and free flows of drinks and bunches of fruits and food apart from the unexplained sightseeing!! Basically Oman is so good for nature lover! ( Kenya???)


Bahrain...where the capital of Bahrain is Manama.Basically Bahrain is an island, which Saudi lies on the west side of Bahrain that connected by the causeway. There were few places of interest we went while visiting Bahrain, of course the causeway to Saudi, Bahrain F1, Tree of Life, Forts and famous mosques and Bait Al Quran. Surprisingly that big community of Muslim in Bahrain are consisted of Syiah, and found out that Bahrain is quite liberal as compared to the rest of Middle East countries i have visited. Apart from availability of alcoholic drinks and pork everywhere, Bahrain also has allowed prostitution (as wht I've heard that the nearest neighbours will head on when they r looking for it)....

So...will see what is the next destination will be..

I miss Kenya and....I really do....

I miss Kenya...miss him soooo.....much. Words can't seem to explain.

Who is Kenya?

Kenya is my current cinta hati, a man whom i feel so comfortable with..Humble...down to earth

Why I call him Kenya?

because when we 1st met, he suggested me a vacation to Kenya, (he doesn't know that I'm not a very advanterous person, I was soooo overprotected when I was kid so...blame it to my parent), while Kenya is a very nature lover person...

Why Kenya is so special to me?

because....when i'm with him...my heart flutters, my stomach get butterflies...and the rest of the world seems dissappear

what ever it is....i miss him to bit....i wanna make him knows that none of the day passes me by that i don't remember u...i miss u....and i really do......

Rainning Friday

It's been raining here today in Doha. A friend of mine called me this morning, suggested me to have a view on Doha looks after rain ( not heavy as Malaysia tho), it is flooded everywhere. Yeah...he blame it to the non efficient drainage system here (forgive him, he's not drainage engineer hehe). Well, shall we consider into our design, if we only experience only the most 3-4 raining days within a year?? And even the rain is not like cats and dogs? Yeah i would say no...... what a waste!! be it...

As usual, Friday and Saturday is non working day here, been figuring what to do since last couple of days. Even not much choice that i have, but still.... so.. i proceed with my passion of life.... COOKING!! well i admit....i loooovve cooking (but not housekeeping)...tho am not really good at it and sometime the taste does not turn as it supposed to be. So my experiment today is apple pie!...Since i have 2 apples that lost their crunchiness and its better for me to save it before it ends in the trash bin.

So....it turns to be......tadaaaa!!!

wonder how does it taste??

must be presentable..(mind u!)..well that is my friday morning obsession, we'll see wht's next

W.I.T.N.E.S.S

Last night I watched this programme which was aired in Al Jazeera channel - WITNESS. It is a very good documentary programme which actually reveals the unknown lives of ordinary people across the world. Each episode has very significant value of their own suffer. The witness are among those who really observed the and experienced the situation first hand. I've watched a few before, but last night was really sad, just can't really recall the title, it was about a girl from Palestine in Lebanon Refugee Camp....it was very sad...i would say that actually every part and inches in Palestine is very sad. The story was about a girl who lost her family and never had a chance to see how does her village and Palestinian land. Until one day she was too excited to be told that she will be going to see her own village with his grandfather. The feeling of seeing her own land was like so speechless, it was up to the extend that she actually bring back the soil from there and wrap up little bit in the envelope and mail it to her friend who is staying in another refugee camp.....how sad...

It showed also the situation when the time they were allowed to meet the relatives who stayed in the other side of the border... This time it really shed my tears, to see them looking for their relatives by addressing "I'm the grandson of someone bin someone", hugging and kissing among themselves through the fence. Looking at this I really can't hold my tears, just can't imagine how the Israel soldiers who were on duty have hearts to see all those. While these Palestinian never give up on hope...far inside their heart they r still hoping to get back their land. Let us pray for them and hoping that the best will be for them.....Ameen
