A place in the sun- second day


Morning

After subuh, I looked out to catch the first sign of sunrise only to be told by Aishah, the sun does not rise in the same direction as it sets. Of course  I know that very well but missed it somehow this morning.

Then it rained heavily. No morning walk by the beach this morning for us. I saw the ferry coming in on the very choppy water and people walking to the jetty to get on the first trip to mainland. Hmm..what the sea people go through, fishermen, boaters, ferriers, they can brave the sea in these conditions.

Mimi woke up early and got ready but it rained again and now she is back to sleep.

Hajar is getting breakfast ready with whatever we have. Luckily we brought some Maggi mee, biscuits and bread. Wahidah also packed durians, bubur durian and many sachets of beverages for us.  Wahidah is the girls' stepmom. I thank Allah for not making their stepmother like my stepmother.  May Allah bless us all in this short life.
