balik kampung 160911

alhamdulillah lately we managed to balik kampung on a monthly basis since ayoh @ cekgu lloh's condition is not that good .. family from kelantan is not coming to aliff's wedding since it is not school holidays, it's proper if aliff is back home to see ayoh & cek and seek their blessings ..

with aliff on the wheel, we left home sweet home at 12 midnite via kuala lipis - gua musang route and had reached cek's house around 6 am and the traffic is not as heavy as the festive season. that thursday night, only aqeel is at home since he'd planned with his friends and aamal & najmi is putting a night in gombak

had called kak tengku, hani's immediate neighbour who's also back in kota bharu upon reaching rumah cek since we'd planned to go to pekan mundok, thailand's border after more than 25 years. we'd crossed the border via sampan and it only cost a dollar each. initially, hani was rather afraid upon looking at our askar on our malayaland and the soldadu thai on their land but with an entourage of 15 members, the feeling was gone seconds later ..

we'd placed orders for aliff's door gifts the last time we're home and just in time to collect them; were rather disappointed cos the gifts are not ready and we'd to wait for another 3 weeks, hence we'd decided to buy anything on the shelve ..

cek's house which is still in renovation mode is almost complete except for the small touchups here and there and at last, cek is able to have a peace of mind and some time on her own; poor cek has to bear with all the mess and the workers for more than half a year ..

my mom, cek is taking care of her father, tok yasin who is almost 100 years old is looking too frail with only bones and skin, his memory had deteriorate and so is his hearing. most of the time, atok is seen sleeping except for makan time .. didoakan yang terbaik buat atokku and to cek who'd been so patient with her father's kerenah, hani salute and tabik spring ..

had managed to visit cousin haiqal in pasir pekan, poksu ki's eldest boy who managed to secure MARA scholarship to do mechanical engineering in ireland and haiqal had left malayaland yesterday. all the best to haiqal and welcome to the engineers club ..

immediately after solat subuh sunday morning, we'd left rumah cek and had stopped at restaurant tepi sungai in tanah merah for breakfast and had taken gua musang - cameron highland for out route home. we'd stopped for more than an hour to have our brunch and feel the cold wind blowing in cameron highland and the place is so serene and tranquil, alhamdulillah cos masih dapat menikmati keindahan alam .. around 2.30pm, we'd reached our pondok and aamal had packed us lunch
