About Me

I am married to my loving husband for more than 40 years now. I am a mother to 3 beautiful children, until years ago when I lost my youngest son. Since then my life is forever altered but yet unbroken....

Arif Ashran 1st Birthday...

"There are two great days in a person's life - the day we are born and the day we discover why..." - William Barclay


THERE ARE WORSE THINGS 

So what if you're getting older,
There are worse things to be,
Like a goofy, pimply teenager,
With zero self-esteem.

So what if you got a few wrinkles,
There are worse things to have,
Like a case of the twenty somethings,
And a room at Mom and Dad's.

To me, you're simply wonderful.

Algeria: Our next destination...

"In life, it's not where you go. It's who you travel with..." - Charles Schulz


My Algerian Story

Algeria is a North African country with a Mediterranean coastline and a Saharan desert interior. Many empires have left legacies here, such as the ancient Roman ruins in seaside Tipaza. In the capital, Algiers, Ottoman landmarks like circa-1612 Ketchaoua Mosque line the hillside Casbah quarter, with its narrow alleys and stairways. The city’s Neo-Byzantine basilica Notre Dame d’Afrique dates to French colonial rule. - Google

Route: KL - Doha - Algiers - Tipaza - Oran - Djemila - Constantine - Timgard - Biskra - El-Oued - Ghardaia - Algiers - Doha - KL

Momento from the Netherlands (2002)

"Sometimes you will never know the value of the moment until it becomes a memory..." - Dr. Seuss

(Decorative wooden clogs)

Dutch Wooden Clogs

These high quality wooden shoes are made in the Netherlands from white poplar wood. Worn by the Dutch Village farmers, these shoes are long lasting and comfortable.

Traditional clogs remain in use as protective footwear in agriculture and in some factories and mines. Although clogs are sometimes negatively associated with cheap and folkloric footwear of farmers and the working class, some types of clogs are considered as fashion wear today.

I was in Netherlands in February 2002.
