Ok, before the actual departed date, aku mmg gugel kaw2 on the tips and tricks on how to survive the airport with a year old plus kiddo...Well, tak la semudah yg di sangka...
On the date itself, I prepared 3 bags [2 luggage and a carry bag]...and yes, I purposely bought a lightweight stroller just in case I can't handle H...kenapa banyak sgt? 1 bag utk baju aku and H, aku bawak backpack Deuter aku; 32Liter...lagi satu beg free pemberian Andalusia; tq Andalusia...dan Carrybag, aku sumbat susu, toys, baju spare and pampers die..dan tak lupa juga snek die...H cepat restless dan cepat bosan kalau travel; so aku mmg kene make sure, every items are address sebelom perjalanan jauh mcm ni...
ye aku bawak backpack sbb takot H nk aku dukung die all the time n aku x afford seret 2 beg... I need my hands to b freed, to handle H...
Kami sampai airport lambat...biasa la aku, aku tak suke tunggu...so kalau deme soh 3 jam awal kat airport, mana nk sempat...Alhamdulillah, Allah permudahkan.. :) Tq Allah...
Check in bags, pungpangpungpang...ada briefing...lebih kurang pukul 3pm la aku bertolak naik Saudia...H tak mengamuk kat airport, she love it! [roll eyes]...apa jek die tak suke...kawasan luas, die boleh lari2...mmg heaven utk nenit tu :)...Alhamdulillah, tak susah jaga dia...aku mmg doa bebyk kat Allah permudahkan perjalanan utk aku dan H...dan yep, Allah dengar doa aku...TQ Allah...I heart You so much!!!!
So, aku salin pampers H sebelom masuk flight...ayah die tlg pgg2 kan H la...nk kata byk involvement tu, takla, tpi helpful enough laa...Dalam kepala aku dh terbayang2 macamana laaa aku nk handle H dgn nk tawafnya...Aku hanya doa dkt Allah dan mengharapkan He leads me the way...and yes, Allah sgt helpful!...I was cried with gratitude dn perasaan malu, mostly masa aku kat sana....sgt2 bersyukur...Alhamdulillah...
Naik kapaiterbang...seperated by choice...aku tak nak tukar tempat...sebab, satu, aku tak looking forward ddk dgn sesiapa, I wanna be alone and H for the next 12hours; katenye...hahahahaha...sekenly, sit sblh aku kosong, senang H nak bergolek2 kalau die bosan...n thirdly, aku be friended with the flight attendant yg sgt friendly and she's a Korean...Masa single2 mcm ni, aku tingat bila kala pramugara AA, try mengayat (or aku yg ayat) on my way from KL to Gold Coast..nyesal tak layan...super duper cute; n I think he is a Chindian with the name of Seth...hahahaha...gile bleh ingat...
Dalam flight, H buat cam die flight attendant, die lepak ngn kakak2 cantik timur tengah...bukak drawer dieorg; konon2 buat air...aku kene chase H up and down...Pak Arabs lagi la...mmg minat kat die...tdo? takder dlm vocab die...pengsan~~...
But we have fun, n the Korean girl; I didn't get her name...super duper helpful...maybe due to the fact that I'm Asian and maybe nampak baik kot? aku tak tau..or maybe nampak can putri Hang Li Poh [blerghh! perasan si itam]...hahahahaha...she gave me n H her 1001 attention; and I get all the privileges...I was so blessed..Macam yg Allah kata, dimana nikmat Tuhanmu yg kau dustakan?...AllahuRabb..
Saudia is a very nice flight sebenonye...ada siap tempat solat...aku take the opportunity utk solat dlm aircraft tu..saje solat sunat...n it was quite ok! :) spacious...bleh baring..hahahaha...flight tak penuh...toilet n all bersih...makanan, not so bad...as long as aku nk H punye perut tak meragam...Alhamdulillah :)
n H did pooed in the aircraft..senang gak nk cuci...again, the nice flight attendant from Korea [specifically] showed me the larger washroom at the other side of the plane...Blessed! kalau laa ada suggestion box, aku pomot minah tu kaw2...baik sungguh... :)
Dah nak sampai...dh nak sampai weih! baru H decided nk tdo..alahai anak omak....so tdo la baby kesygan aku tu...n kami among the last who left the aircraft...n the beautiful-korean-attendant said bye2...and I talked to myself, this should be a great experienced; doing Umrah with you ex and ur ex-family...but it ain't easy..hahahahaha
So we finally arrived at 6pm; decided to solat jama' takdim kat hotel Madinah sbb lagi baraqah...eh ye ke? So we all semua naik bas dn dari Jeddah ke Madinah ghopenyer 6jam perjalanan...perghh....jauh... H dlm bas sah2 sambung tdo....gasak mung laaa H...
We did stopped at RnR die..super cold bila malam..extreme weather ;) windy...ramai yg turun solat, aku in the other hand, turun shishi...n kami di bekalkan dgn makanan dr Mr Sate...Tak makan wei, penat...nk tdo...naik jek bas, 'dia' aka pak H hulur coffee dkt aku...aku cam? eh kite fren2 eh? hahahahaha..vangang...aku just said thanks...n letak coffee tu...cuaca super sejuk tu mmg sesuai minom kopi hangat2..tp tu hangat beno, lidah aku terbakau sikit sbb paneh...
Aku pon terlelap dh nk dekat sampai Madinah...kami sampai pkl 1pagi...suprisingly, pak H helpful,I'm glad sbb kalau harap aku sorg angkat beg, mmg aku mampu, tp kederat aku akan abes kat situ...susun2 bilik, huru hara...aku end up satu bilik ngn ex aku punye kakak dan adik...which is great sbb I only knw them the most...
kemas barang, tukar baju, mandi...jam dh pkl 3pagi...azan pukul 5.15pg itu jam...aku tdo sejam, n bila bangun aku tgk org berkoyan2 p masjid Nabawi yg sepelaung dr hotel jek...yess! aku super excited, kejut seme ipar duai ajak p jemaah subuh...tp end up aku p ngn kak ipau aku...pergh die punye suasana...u gotta love Madinah...nanti aku ceta part 2...as of now...ni jek apdet aku, sebagai ibu tunggal...melawat tanah Haram bersama baby tersayang...
