Chicken pox story

It's day 6 of chicken pox for Nuqman and day 5 for Nana.

Alhamdulillah Nana's pox seems do not spread. Maybe because I started Zovirax very early. alhamdulillah... tQ Allah.

These two does not like Daun Semambu at all, so I did not use it much. Only one or two times.

She did not get any fever nor cranky at all.. alhamdulillah :)
Terima kasih Allah memudahkan proses penjagaan ini.

Nana I think have no problem if i send her to school now... no obvious pox seems to appear.

Nuqman seems to heal. The existing pox started flaking but still appear reddish,, Julie advised to keep quaratine those two --- normally for two weeks!!



uh no... I don't have much annual leave and I really need it for my study.. oh this is my 'dugaan'.
Since Friday, today is already day 3 of my annual leave. I hope i don't have to take too much leave...
Semoga dipercepatkan penyembuhan ini ya Allah.. aminn

I've got several ideas in my head, maybe to check in at Ramada Plaza and keep them in the room while I'm working,.. BUT how about Aril and Nana's schooling.. They can't skip school..

hurm... dugaan ini untuk ku.. Allah ingin menguji ku.. Kutahu ada hikmah besar di sebalik dugaan ini. Alhamdulillah Syasya and Aril are healthy, Alhamdulillah

InsyAllah

Journey to success

Alhamdulillah...
A great start, first time travelling Emirates airbus A380 from KUL to DXB... the seat was amazing.. Single flatbed, very private.. There's even WiFi on board the plane!!  Coolness

After six hours, I reached Dubai. Amazing lounges. Only what I dislike is that they have smoking lounge. You I can't stand the smell. Having to pass this area was a nightmare. But I survived. Four hours in Dubai airport. Nothing tempted me as everything is expensive. So I just stay in the prayer room and the dining lounge.

I am now on board DXB-BLQ. It is a normal triple seven I guess. Open seat. No more private. Huuu...

Bismillahirrahmanirrahim....  Wait for next update

~~
Alhamdulillah..  Safely arroved Bologna airport. Taxi is easy. I was told there was a bus and train too from the airport, but my luggage is too huge for that. I'll grab a cab now. More updates soon once I reached the hotel. Ciao

No regrets.   Love it

Verona - where Romeo and Juliet blooms

So what to see in Verona?

1. Piazza Bra, see the Arena

2. Castelvecchio Castle

3. Giulietta's house (Juliet) @ via Capello

4. Erbe Square @ Piazza delle Erbe for shopping

5. Scaliger Tombs @ via Arche Scaligere, where lies the remains of Scaliger  family who once rule Verona with an iron fist

and etc...

Around Lago di Garda

For those seeking for entertainment.. go to Gardaland @ Ronchi (south of Garda). It's an amazing theme park.. perfect for family getways.. entrace fee from Euro20

We stay at Hotel Benaco @ Torbole (North of Garda). very relaxed.. nice view.. perfect place for bike ethusiast (mountain bikers).. bike rental start from Euro8 for 2 hours. Bike shop open at 9am, then close in the afternoon and open again at 1330hrs.

We then went to Monte Baldo at Malcesine (Centre of Garda). Cable car cost Euro20 per adult (return trip). It took about 15 minutes to reach the peak (1760m). Nice walk.. one nice restaurant at the peak. We had our pizza and spaghetti with a nice coffee. car parking at cable car station cost Euro1 per hour.

We stay also at Camping Le Palme (South of Garda) @ Via Del Tronchetto 2, 37017 Lazise, Italy for Euro48.80/night.. near to Gardaland Park... as we plan to go to Verona and Hotels in Verona cost rocket high.

Lago di Garda

Bologna to Trento (200km++)
Toll €15.10
~ about 3hrs with 1 rnr pit stop

We arrived Trentino in the rain... no parking spot found.... only seen green sector. We can't park at these special allocated spot without the sticker.

I was also trying to find ways to go to Mount Bondone.... gps keeps on routing this APT Monte Bondone (somewhere in Trentino little town) ... i think it's the travel agent company or something.

We finally decided not to go to Mount Bondone in this weather... we then head straight to via Benaco @ Lake Garda. Took 30mins to arrive Lake Garda from Trentino

Arrived Hotel Benaco at 12pm.. succesfully checked in. . A note, parking is €15/day in the hotel area.. another parking spot 700m away from hotel. . We paid €8/day. Parking seems to be a big problem in italy. Sigh!!

Tomorrow we will go to Monte Baldo via cable car at Malcesine.

Let the adventure begins

Bismillahirrahmanirrahim. ..

Syukur pada Allah... abg safely arrived..

We shall then start our journey.. we picked up our Fiat500x today at the airport thru Nolleggiare car (Happy rent).. With wifi. Hopefully it will be as smooth as silk. InsyaAllah

As a start Abg successfully drove from airport to Catalina's house. It was a big compliment for his as he just landed, tired and yet drove a left hand drive .. Alhamdulillah  .. semoga journey ini lancar. Aminn

So tomorrow from Bologna we head to Mount Bondone.. 221km north of the city.. gps estimation is 2h15m... we shall see how fast we can go.

Then to Lake Garda for the check in later in the afternoon.

Driving in Italy


Hey,

I compiled few tips (or notes) on driving in Italy... here goes

1. car pick up at airport turns our cheaper than pick up at city center

2. not necassary to return at same pick up location.. but of course, cheaper kalu ambik-antar tmpt sama.. i.e pick up airport, return city center

3. longer period of rental = cheaper. i.e. 4 days rental maybe differ only 10 euro with 3 days rental

4. winter is over, BUT some country (like Italy), is compulsory to have snow chain tyre in the car  (check the time).. some company provide complimentary.. some charge very mahal.. so be careful with 'cheaper' reantal

5. insurance coverage ado mcm2.. cheap car does not cover insurance, thus dia akan amik deposit yg sgt tinggi i.e Euro1,500... with little scratch could cause u the entire deposit... so, better ambik yg mahal sikit,, janji hati senang... full coverage.. gapo nk jadi kt kete, jadiilahhh.. janji nyawa selamat. insyaAllah

6. additonal chargable item which i think very important to consider... wifi/gps(full updated local map).. baby chair (compulsory for kids)

7. toll roads in Italy accept cash and credit cards... not like in Singapore and Australia... which uses auto detection system from car plate number. that's a good note (i hope).. but be prepared with lotsa cash.. (i guess)

8. gas fuelling, most car is full to full.. meaning.. u get your car full gas, return in full. fuel prite around Euro 1,36 per liter.. must check.. different company, different price.

9. oppss.. i forgot the most important note!! driving license! you must have an international driving licence.. get it at your nearest JPJ office.. warna brown... huhuhu


so,... be careful if u see Euro10 per day for car rental.. i could be very basic..
i ended up paying Euro 300 for 5 days... that is Euro60 per day...
i get an Auto Fiat 500X... new car, hopefully fuel saving.. looks cute and savvy too.

we will see.

Wassalam

ciao

Life correlation

Three major factors contributed to the decreasing number of chances for transmission line getting hit by lightning;
*lower fotting resistance
*shorter span length
*lower structure height

Sama lah dengan resam manusia.. lagi kau tinggi di atas, jauh melangkah, lantang bersuara... lagi tinggi la chance nak kena panahan kilat.

Stay low.. ikut resmi footing reistance
