Sighting of two moons...

"People rarely succeed unless they have fun in what they are doing." - Dale Carnegie

(Bemban Hot Spring)

Last night we had a good time soaking in the hot water full of minerals at Bemban Hot Spring. We were there with my sisters and in-laws and stayed there till way after midnight hoping to experience the sighting of the two moons.

(Soaking in the hot scalding water)

The news about the two moons were circulating in the sosial media. It is said that at 12.30 am on 27 August 2014 there will be two moons in the sky. This will happen when planet Mars will be as bright as the moon and both Mars and moon could be seen with naked eyes.

Unfortunately last night the sky was full of cloud. We could not sight the two moons. Not even one moon nor a single star.

Is this phenomena real or is it just a hoax....

TTS at Bidara House

"You must have long term goals to keep you from being frustrated by short term failures." - Charles C. Noble

The bikers gang met at Bidara House to discuss the options and routing of our 4-nation ride planned in December this year.

The discussion ended way after 2 a.m. and decision was made by majority consensus.  Although it is still a long way to go, a lot of paper work and preparation need to be done before the trip.

My Abah 87th birthday

“The greatest mistake you can make in life is to continually be afraid you will make one…” – Elbert Hubbard

(Chocolate moist birthday cake)

It was an impromptu decision.

Coincide with my duty days in Melaka, the siblings arranged a kenduri tahlil and doa selamat to celebrate my Abah 87th birthday and my brother-in-law Kamarul Zaman’s retirement from the Police Force on his 56th birthday.

It was also a family gathering of sisters, in-laws, nieces and nephews, plus a few of my sisters’ grandchildren. We prepared pulut kuning, fried mihun, satay, rendang, nasi empit and lodeh and a delicious home-made chocolate moist cake for desert. The majlis tahlil was held after the Maghrib prayer and was led by Ustaz Saufi.

It was a simple occasion, yet a joyful moment for us and my parents too...
