She had gone with my sister and they had a MAJOR falling out right there in the holy land. But other than that seeing the Ka'bah and doing the tawaf was a magical experience for her who is a mu'alaf. I shall not bore u with the details but nuff said that my sister and her have now reconciled. <BR/><BR/>One thing that still puzzles me about musim haji is why people cry... while sending off people cry while sambut balik pun people cry... me included hehehe... why lah???Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9776295.post-1137079785142627202006-01-12T15:29:00.000+00:002006-01-12T15:29:00.000+00:00Nice.My mum got to rasa naik kapal laut and also k...Nice.<BR/><BR/>My mum got to rasa naik kapal laut and also kapal terbang masa dia ke Mekah. First time she went when she was 13, I think, back in the 50s. It was experience of a lifetime she once told me. The way they makan ramai2 dlm talam, throw dead people into the sea and tengok dolphins swim ikut kapal. The worst when kapal dipukul ombak kuat, abis tunggang langgang org and barang2 dlm kapal tu. Second time she went, that runtuhan terowong Muassim happened. Her life was spared from the incident because my father forgot something and they had to patah balik to hotel. Imagine not knowing whether your parents were trapped in that runtuhan. We had sleepless nights but thank God depa selamat.<BR/><BR/>btw Kakteh, ramai gak yg sama alma mater ni. SNC rocks!<BR/><BR/>ps: MakAndeh... lawa gambar :) (sorry can't help it. kena komen jugak)Ewokhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15510879810322558807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9776295.post-1137075049457107702006-01-12T14:10:00.000+00:002006-01-12T14:10:00.000+00:00kak teh- masa tu umur kak teh berapa dan umur mak ...kak teh- masa tu umur kak teh berapa dan umur mak berapa?KakNihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12272321558719651328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9776295.post-1137056407721992342006-01-12T09:00:00.000+00:002006-01-12T09:00:00.000+00:00Selamat Hari Raya KakTeh,beautiful! love reading y...Selamat Hari Raya KakTeh,<BR/>beautiful! love reading your Mak stories, my prayer that she's well.

I remember your Mak very well; "putih dan cantik" as my Tok refers her, because Tok thinks shes as black as her name. <BR/><BR/>Your Mak always came to my Tok's place almost every other day and they would chit chat until "Pak Man Jual Ikan" came. At times, I would be asked to go and get bunga melor from your mother's garden. Tok loves bunga melor very much, its her favourite.<BR/><BR/>I can still picture your Mak standing at the door, smiling.
