Cuti Musim Dingin

----->main course part two<-----

6th July - 9th July 2004

bermulalah jaulah / winter trip ke almost separuh bumi australia. we left melbourne for Canberra with 11 vans and a tarago. just imagine how huge is the tour ayy? despite facing some difficulties at the beginning of the journey, we managed to arrive Australian National University for Subuh prayer. if we all notice, kalau kita nak melakukan menda2 baik ni, mesti ada je dugaan menimpa. anggaplah dugaan ni sebagai ujian dari Allah untuk menguji sejauh mana tabah dan ikhlas hamba-hamba Nya. touring around canberra for one day, been to Parliament House, Telstra Tower, National Museum of Australia and a park which i forgot what it is. the fact that canberra was just too cold had shivered me for the whole tour. i can't really stand the freezing but, i love canberra for the significance of real winter i've had compared to brissy. many gratitude to amalia & nadia for being the best tour guide. goodbye Australian Capital of Territory....

our next destination was the most well-known city, Sydney. overnight at Punchbowl and had a talk at University of New South Wales the next morning. spent the rest of the day jalan-jalan. been to Sydney Opera House, got on cruise to Darling Harbour, and ended up menghirup udara segar at Royal Botanic Garden for solat n dinner. had quite a time there for the drivers to get ready for another long journey. we didn't do nothing throughtout the whole journey. alhamdulillah, ada pengisian telah disusun oleh biro activity so that time won't get killed camtu jer. perjalanan diteruskan untuk destinasi terakhir which is brisbane. before we reached brisbane, kami sempat menghabiskan perbincangan tentang usul 20 by Imam Hassan Al-Bana and Antara Semalam dan Hari Ini. i admit of my lack of confidence to speak my views out besides inferiority complex menyerang. to members of Asma' Abu Bakar thank you for all your guidance and being understanding. please pray for me yah. goodbye New South Wales....

i didn't expect plan has been changed from dropping by at Gold Coast to Byron Bay. sampai jugak at last kat the most easterly point in australia. subhanallah, sangat cantik pemandangan.. at one moment, something came across my mind. why am i actually join this jaulah? is it because of saja jalan2? suka ria? ataupun ambil gambar for collection? jauh berjalan luas pandangan.. sambil menikmati keindahan alam, it makes me realize how great Allah is, how grateful am i to Him. betapa sayangnya Allah kat kita sediakan alam yang cukup indah untuk makhlukNya, dan betapa sepatutnya aku as hambaNya bersyukur and taat kepadaNya. besides, jaulah has strengthen the bond between us, all sisters. i can feel the sweetness of ukhuwah fillah sepanjang perjalanan. all of them care and love each other because of Allah. sayang sisters sume!!
