One Beautiful Day

Hi peeps! I am back! Sekolah cuti, blog pun bercuti juga. I spent my school holidays visiting my families - my mom, my sisters, aunties, ipar duai and attending weddings. While on holidays, I really did not have much time for blogging. Tu yang terabai je blog ni.. I also missed some of your posts while I was on holiday and now I am trying my best to catch up....

It has also been more than a week since the quake and Tsunami in Japan but we are all still so grief stricken over the loss and the scale of devastation. I heard that the effects spread deep into Japan..My thoughts and prayers are with everyone in Japan including my two blogger friends Nana and Mami. To Nana - semoga Nana and family okay di sana and segala urusan dipermudahkan..

When Tsunami hit Japan on 11th of March, we were alerted on the high waves and the rising sea water.. It was indeed a frightful moment for us when we were told that Tsunami might reach Terengganu. The police officers were everywhere in town warning the public to stay away from the beaches. Yang tgh jogging kat Pantai Batu Buruk pun were told to to go home. Suspen jugak ye kalau duduk tepi laut ni. My office is only 200 metres from the sea. Rumah pun dekatlah juga. I was quite worried actually and we left KT for KB. Memang masa tu kecoh jugaklah kat KT ni.

Well, in this post, I want to share some photos I took on my way back to KB from KT more than 2 weeks ago (before Tsunami) when the sun shone brightly. It was a beautiful day with blue sky and blue sea. It has been raining now in KT since Tsunami. Sometimes sgt. lebat macam musim tengkujuh. Usually we don't get that much rain in March.

At Batu Rakit- we stopped to buy some food at a stall here.
Beli jeput @cekodok
At Penarik Beach

We stopped at Penarik beach and had a picnic. The weather was really nice. Otak2 ni sgt sedap. Beli sikit je hari tu dan sgt menyesal...
Tobacco farm
Sepanjang jalan, we passed by beautiful beaches, peaceful villages, tobacco farms and paddy fields.
Masa tu baru nak mula musim timun.. Melons are in season. We also stopped to buy melons.
Byk lori membawa timun Cina @ tembikai We bought Timun Betik. It's a type of melon which we call "Timun Betik" or "Papaya Melon".
Timun Betik
We usually have the melon with coconut milk and palm sugar or if you fear cholesterol, you can have it with fresh milk. All types of melons are great sources of vitamin C. They are also a good source of potassium and are low in calories, low in cholesterol as well as being fat free.

Another type of melon- The rock melon..


Dalam perjalanan, we stopped a few times, beli itu ini - banyak makanan, kuih, buah-buahan, fish and seafood. Pemandangan pun cantik. I have always love the view of the countryside. Suasana kampung yang sangat menenangkan jiwa. Syukur kepada Allah atas segala nikmatnya...



Thanks for dropping by friends. Until next time.

  3. Beautiful photos, TK! It must have been terrible hearing that there was a tsunami warning. Glad you were safe, but we still think about those in Japan affected by it and hope and pray for them.
