The Commencement of 2009 Summer Break-Away

|

Blessed with a good weather, the kids were very excited flying Qatar Airline back to our beloved hometown – Miri, Malaysia on 27.6.2009. With a mixed feeling though, they missed their friends – Kamarul’s kids, who are going to back Malaysia for good by 1 July 2009. This is what people always called –the fact of life, people comes people go! Nothing is permanent, and nothing is perfect in the Eyes of the Almighty Allah swt.
We departed our apartment at 18:00 hrs sent by Sherif and Hisham to El-Nouzha airport, Alexandria. This is their first experience flying Qatar Airline, in First Class cabin. What a lucky kids! Alhamdullillah. At the airport entrance, Samy – the Meet and Assist person who had been waiting for an hour, greeted us and ushered us to the counter. Everything went smooth and well. Alhamdullillah, we took-off around 20:30 hours after 2 months of preparation, counting days entertaining the excitement an looking forward for many interesting events that have been sketched and planed. Honestly, it was quite a stressful preparation though, but the anxiety was agitated by our missed beloved Malaysia, left alone Miri to be specific, but our families, relatives and friends.

Arrived at Doha International airport around 23:35 hours and departed for KLIA @ 01:35 on the 28 June. Alhamdullillah Salamah…..we touched down at 13:15 hours after around 10 minutes taxing along the runway of one of the best airport in the world and entered the KL International Airport’s (KLIA) Satellite building at 13:25 hours.

We spent around 20 minutes at the satellite building and cleared up our luggage 10 minutes after that. Alhamdullillah, all the luggage were handled safely and still in-take.
In this current demanding, but exhilarating and jubilant world, communication is vital, thus, our one of the top most priority to hook ourselves with the Malaysia telecommunication network, we subscribed to the X-Pax. Nevertheless, ultimately, the very top most in our priority list, was our obligation to perform our prayers before the Almighty Allah Rabbul Jalil – the communication that all Muslims must maintain consistently of course sincerely wherever and whenever they are.After checking-in our luggage via the domestic counter for our next destination Miri, we relieved our hunger with the local Malaysian cuisine at the KLIA food court.
At Miri airport, we received a very warmth welcome by Bg Hj Rosli, Kak Hjh Rahmah, Abu Bakar aka Chote, Hj Ma’som (pronounces as Mak..Sum), Hj Sulaiman & Hjh Miah, Muhammad Fahmi – who was actually could not open his eyes anymore, dosing himself tirelessly, Fauziah and hubby - Faizal aka Bern (pronounces as burn) who had been waited at the airport until we arrived at around 23:00 hours. Despite our exhaustion and fatigue mainly due to the long distance crossing two time zones and oceans, the second part of our journey, the 2 hours and 15 minutes flight was very entertaining with the service (the food was nicely packed and served) and the hospitality of the MH 2598 crew and MAS as a whole. Alhamdullillah, we arrived at the TwinzBites around 23:50 hours.
