Puffing Billy

i went to puffing billy in 1984, it was such an unforgettable train ride,with all the excitement,sounds of children 'ooohs' and 'aah', 'woow' at the sound of the horn,the engine, the smoke,the steam,,.eventhough we were not children anymore but the sight was so awesome..well, that was what i thought at that time..

I keep on dreaming of going there again, to see,feel and smell the 'train' again..such a long wait..
on the train to belgrave
one of the streets 

the train to the city

after more than 40 mins,we got off here


off from the new train, on the classic one


i've waited for so looong..

all aboard!!!

chu choo we go...






the steam that moved the train





and after waiting for almost 30 years, i had the chance to be there again..well a lady of almost 50, it was not easy to hide the excitement i felt, hehe..i was 18 again on that train...

JUST GET IN THE CAR AND GO..

Sometimes we don't have a plan to go somewhere but we need to go out, to refresh, explore and be a little bit adventurous..

That was what we did once..3 dams in a day around Kedah..we never thought we could be in these places..hundreds of kilometres in one day, but we did,alhamdulillah...

Melbourne..


missing the wind, the gardens, trams and the ever changing weather...

My Garden and I

here i am
in a world of my own
by the sound of silence self
serenading by the chirping birds
and the sweet smell of earth..
all praise be to Allah
for all creations big and small..






everything has a place... for all
