Tears in heaven...

(Hana giving grand-pa a helping hand...)

Every day in some small way

Memories of you come our way.

Though absent, you are always near

Still missed, loved and always dear.

In Loving memory:

Mirza Ashran bin Mustafa

(24 Dec 1985 – 19 Mar 2006)

Penang: Lunar Eclipse Ride...

“Some people feel the rain. Others just get wet.” - Bob Marley

That night we were at Batu Ferringhi. The sky was a little cloudy and the weather was cool for a leisure stroll along the night market.

(Grainy eclipse shot...)

Starting from around 9 pm, we had the opportunity to watch the lunar eclipse while having our dinner at a nearby stall. The eclipse happens when the earth slips between the sun and the moon, casting a reddish-orange glow on the moon. The last total lunar eclipse was sighted in 1957 and the next lunar eclipse will be in 2014.

(The Zen experience...)

Later we had foot reflexology to relax tired muscles and when we finished our massage, the eclipse was at its end stage and the moon was nearly fully covered.

What a beautiful sight, Subhanallah...

(Ready to roll...)

Total mileage: 900 km
Route taken: KL - PP - Kulim - Baling - Grik - KL

TGV birthday surprise...

"I love movies, movies let you be other people." - Film Geek

As part of the TGV Birthday Surprise for Nuffnangers, I've been selected to receive 4 complimentary passes for any movie at TGV Cinemas outlets nationwide.

So, that weekend when we went riding to Penang, we stopped at Jaya Jusco Seberang Prai and used the free tickets to watch 'Puss in Boots' - hilarious and entertaining.

It would be fun if we brought Hana along to watch...
