As mentioned before, I need to rest so I went for a 6 days holiday starting from 24 to 29 Dec 2004.
My holiday destination was the state of Kedah. The first destination was to Gunung Jerai on 25 Dec for one night. I drove down the mountain the next day intending to visit the areas around Sungei Petani.
On 26 Dec. 2004, an earthquake ocurred off Sumatra. The tsunami wave struck 11 countries including Malaysia. In Malaysia, three states were affected; Penang, Kedah and Perak. As it happens, I was in Kedah when the tsunami wave came struck Kedah. As I am writing this blog, it also means I am alive and well . I was very lucky to have escaped when the waves came ashore.
More to come this weekend.
