Another Sunday...We decided to leave the city for the east coast, to the town of Kuantan..before the mad rush for the 'balik kampong' began just before the weekend..and hope that the roads to the east coast is still with the normal traffics flow, it would be an interesting journey of about four hours to my home town...We hope to visit a close friend that live in a bungalow beside the sea whom, when we last got news from her was that she is not that well....It was quite some sometime ago and we hope that she is alright now...As I had mentioned before, she had a beautiful bungalow beside the sea....not only that, there is even a river nearby . Her husband love boating and they had a boat park nearby and would often be seen boating on this small river accompanied with their young son....This family home is to me a dream come true...a bungalow beside the sea and river, a boat and what they need is the time to enjoy the day with joy with their family and I believe they are enjoying every minute of the life...a great friend and we have not told her of our coming...We would just call her when we arrived in Kuantan...It is now easy with the cell phone....a Godsend tool for communication anywhere and anytime without the hassle...We just would not leave home without it now...it has already become an extension of ourselves...Thanks to science and technology.... As usual with us, we did not have a fix time to start our journey...we would just leave when we are ready...the potted plants had to watered...the fish in the pond had to be fed and the newspaper man had to be told....and then we would take our time driving with pleasure...with no rush...that is the beauty of retirement...the time is ours and we would enjoy the four hours journey to Kuantan with a few stop on the way...that is life man....
