The pouring rain in Kuching City.......

The weather in Kuching City till end of 2010 seems to be superbly fine...... we continue to enjoy the sunshine plus occasional rain. Comes the New Year 2011, the first week is still okay but all of a sudden the rain starts pouring!!!!!

I remember it has been raining so heavily on 10th, Monday night till the next morning......... and what shocked us on the early 11th morning is that the Kuching International Airport is closed - all flights coming in and out of KIA is 'CANCELLED!' The main cause and scene of attraction and concern happen to be an Air Asia Flight from Kuala Lumpur to Kuching upon arrival skidded off the runway!! Though such accidents do happen in Kuching, but it seems to be first time in history which resulted in the airport closure!! This is also my first time experiencing such a situation, whereby sending someone off from Kuching airport only after four attempts with a total waiting time of nearly 40 hours as from the original flight time.

Hoping that the rain will not continue to pour as next week will be 'High Tide' and I believe that everyone is praying for fine weather so there won't be flood in Kuching City, especially those flood prone areas. "May God bless us all!"

Preparations for CNY......

As usual this has always been the most busy time of the year - lots of cleaning, washing, wiping, brushing, throwing ....... all the actions that 'Spring Cleaning' has in store for us!!! It is a good thing though or else our house will be full of unwanted stuffs which we seem to have no time to clear and with a good and proper cleaning once a year, well! well! it's nice to welcome the Lunar New Year with everything 'New!' [that's the Chinese culture *SMILES*]

The Chinese Lunar New Year is just roughly three weeks from now, it seems to be just yesterday that we all welcome the New Year 2011 and with just a flush we are already in the 8th day today!!

As we are all busy with our preparation, here's a short & beautiful poem 'Angel Light' by Alice to share with everyone and may we be guided by this Angel Light forever and always...........

The 1st day of the new year........

It's raining in Kuching City as the clock tick it's way to 12 midnight and through to the new year 2011. The rain continued till morning and everywhere is wet and the air is cool. It's indeed a wet start of the new year!

However, just before noon the sun came out timely enough for my hubby to polish our car as planned. Hopefully tomorrow will be sunny as there are many washings and drying to do, so just wish for the best to come.

As the 1st day of the new year draws to a close and its time to Zzzzzzzzzz, here's wishing you all.......
