Take a journey across space and time through the multi-dimensional door that is the soul of my being... For the Salik (Arabic for traveller, also a Sufi term for a searcher) merges in him the raw qualities of an earthly being nicely blended with the divine qualities that belong to Him, the Alpha and Omega of everything.

Kampung Morten at night
The watergate sytem of the river Melaka
Later at night we went to the jetty of the river Melaka right in the middle of its city...
OK. I consciously took a picture from this angle to show something. You see, following the land-reclamation and creation of the Melaka river cruise, the flow of the river is broken into two. The one on the left lead to a dead end close to the original estuary, the one to the right lead to the gateway system where the water level is controlled...
And here's a look back towards the jetty where I took the first picture. The jetty should lie near the original estuary as could be seen 20 years ago.
Bukit (Hill of) Supai at dusk...
From the floating restaurant one could easily see the small hill called Bukit Supai...
The floating restaurant at Kuala Linggi
One fine afternoon in December, after spending some time in Port Dickson and Tanjung Tuan in Negeri Sembilan we arrived at the small village of Kuala Linggi in Melaka.

Tranquil Teluk Pelanduk near Linggi
Mid February, me and wife made a little trip to a bay called Teluk Pelanduk in Negeri Sembilan...
Teluk Pelanduk is actually closer to the mouth of the Linggi river. For the record, the river, at least for half its length, is a natural border between the states of Negeri Sembilan and Melaka...
Arial views of Bandar Tasik Puteri and the Aceh connection?
One fine afternoon I decided to walk up into a newly-completed apartment block in my housing area Bandar Tasik Puteri...

The Aceh connection...
Peace be upon you all. After almost a month not making any new posting in this blogspot, I am pleased to inform that yesterday I've just returned from a new trip to Aceh. Compound that to the fact that I also went to Aceh in January before returning on the 1st of February. Now, I'm not sure if I've told you readers about that but it should give you some idea how Aceh has been on my mind. Otherwise how could I make 2 trips there in the last 2 months?
Anyway, the point is I have rather plenty of stuff to be turned into new articles here. That I would do in due time, be rest assured. But first I'd release some stuff about a few local trips made in December last year. And then only you my dear readers would get to see the new stories on Aceh ya... cheers! :]
