Hong Kong Disneyland 2000

Where: Hong Kong

Trip Highlight: Hong Kong Disneyland, Victoria Peak, Flea market, Hong Kong Convention Centre, Stanley Market



It was a blessing in disguise when I was transferred from Special Unit in Electrical Engineering Branch to  the Information Technology Unit back in 1999. Back then, IT was a new era and most people agreed that IT is difficult and not a popular job.

Nevertheless, myself and a senior friend, Mahizan decided to take the challenge. Beside our routine job in the department, we slowly try our luck in contracting IT job. We managed to implement 2 jobs, 1) cabling & networking for Board of engineers office in Kelana Jaya and 2) Cant remember... :p

There was a project on networking and we both were lucky to be offered for a conference in Hong Kong based on the projects scope. We decided  to bring our family along.... Fatehah was 3 yo and Jannah was only 2 months old. Since Jannah is still a baby, I had to leave her with my parents and Fatehah was the lucky one :D






We spent 5D4N in Hong Kong. Back then in 1999, we only managed to rent a very small room in the hotel and the room was too small that we have to perform our prayer on the bed... pheww..  Halal food was hard to find... but our mee maggi save us most of the time :)

The best part is, we felt that 4D3N was too short and we have not explored HK fully. Hence, we decided to extend our stay for 1 more day where we successfully grab to conquer the famous Victoria Peak  :)

Fatehah, waiting for train to go up to Victoria Peak....





Thanks Kak Izan n Abg Zul for the company :) May all of us in great health and good life InsyaAllah...

Kota Kinabalu 2006





 When:  December 2006

Where: Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, Malaysia

Who: Abah, Ummi, Fatehah, Jannah, Jihah & Jimmy

Trip Highlight: Kinabalu Park, KK City, Seafood Restaurant, Philipinos Market


This is the first trip with the whole family, 6 of us. Fatehah was 10 yo, Jannah was 7, Jihah was 3 yo and jimmy was 2 yo. The trip was a testing ground for the kids to fly on 2 hrs flight. I remembered they really enjoyed it and was quite jakun with the flight as well as flying high.....



We went in December 2006. Unfortunately, I cant remember the exact date and we were there for 4D3N. We rent a car and an apartment for the whole family. The budget was a quite tight because I did not pay much attention to the trip. I was quite naive then, leave everything, like planning, budgeting and timing to the dearest darling... but, It was fun and all my kids laugh out loud when they see themselves back then in 2006 hahahahaha





This is Iman Najmi aka Jimmy at 2 yo. cute and chubby :). we went for island hopping and cant recall the name of the island.. sad isnt it?

This is of coz, jihah the chinese look girl... at the age of 3 yo. This photo was captured at the Kinabalu Park..
