This song is from the angels to you & me:

Imagine by John Lennon
"Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people living for today

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people living life in peace

You, you may say
I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one
I hope some day you'll join us
And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people sharing all the world

You, you may say
I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one
I hope some day you'll join us
And the world will live as one"

Spontaneous trip to Penang Hill

6th Apr,Fri-Being a local Penangite,I had a spontaneous trip with my family and relatives to visit Penang hill after the last visit 12years ago.The entree tickets fees for tourist is RM30 for 2ways transfer.RM8(written in Bahasa Melayu) 2ways transfer for Malaysian who bring along their Identification Card.RM4 2 ways transfer for Golden citizen(>55years old).The cable car's working hours is from 6.00am-11.00pm daily.Every half an hour there will be a trip up to Penang hill and down from Penang hill.It took only 5minutes for us to get up to the hill top.The cable car stopped by 2 stops to dropped off locals who are still staying in the hill.Well,nowadays there are not much of people staying there,some are staffs that take care of the bungalows.


It was 9am & it's very cooling and foggy when we reached the top.Me and my parents have a walk around.Once we walk out from the cable car station,David Brown restaurant is on our left.On our right,if it's not foggy we can see Penang island and mainland's view. What we can see now is just Fog!Further down there is a food court and Owl museum.There is a Indian temple and Mosque too.We climbed up the stairs and saw this Playground.It's like a dreamland playground in the fog.My dad said:"Where is the temple?I remember there is a Hindu Temple here...."Suddenly when we turn our heads,we saw the Hindu Temple just in front of us."I experienced "Ask and you shall Get!"I got a message in the temple.It's Ghandi's prayer for peace.

After visiting the temple,we went back down.There is a hotel that provides Buggy service where you can have a ride around.We chose to walk 1km+ from the hotel to the other end.Along the way,there are lots of flowers,trees,beautiful bungalows.There is this a 1818 post box!We did not walk till the end because we met our relatives at about 1.3km.They had reached the end earlier and were heading back.So we joined them.My relatives told me that till the end there are lots of big trees,the air is very fresh.We stopped at the view deck to snapped photos.

We walked back to the main area to have a cup of coffee and waited for the next trip down the hill.We took the hot seats that are facing the trail,where we can see our way down without any blockage.The ride was really fast!There was this part that we cant see the trail and it felt like riding on a roller coaster.We screamed and it was really fun!The trip down only took us 3minutes.I enjoyed my trip to Penang Hill.I recommend you to visit it when you are in Penang.It is Great for a morning walk,evening stroll,family picnic and couple dating.I'll grab a chance to meditate there as well.

My Journey: Final Day in Bali (Day 9)

7th Mar,Wed-I had a good night sleep and woke up at 8am.It was so foggy outside.I cant even see any view.All I can see is Fog.I missed out the breakfast with Volcano Batur & Lake Batur view.I checked out the hotel and met with Ketut's cousin brother-Kara.He arrived 30 minutes earlier and he's such a good guy.He speaks perfect English without the Balinese slang.I'm like talking to an American.Kara is a very kind person.I asked him to buy some local fruits from the stall outside the hotel,he just said Yes.The fruits are really cheap!8 oranges in 1 pack only cost 5,000rph which is RM1.70.He bought 3 packs of fruits and it all cost only 5,000rph per pack.He bought Salak and another local fruit for me.I don't really remember the name but I have the picture of it below.It tasted Sweet and sour!It's like tomato and kiwi's mix.Kara taught me how to eat it.(If you would like to try,please ask the local to teach you how to eat it or else it's gonna taste bitter!)

So we headed to the local Hot Spring-Batur Natural Hot Spring.We stopped by a few spots to snap some Nice photos of Volcano Batur and the surroundings.Kintamani doesn't look like or feel like in Bali.I'm like in Europe or New Zealand.Although I haven't been to Europe or New Zealand but it gave me this feeling.Soon we arrived at the Hot Spring.It is a nice place to chill while dipping or swimming in the Hot Spring Pool looking at the Beautiful Lake Batur.After the Hot Spring visit we headed to Bersakih.We were stopped by a local woman.Kara scrolled down the window.The woman offered to give us some blessings and prayers for the safety of driving on the road.Without us answering yes or no,the woman just started her prayers while sprinkling holly flower water around the car and sticked some rice on Kara's third eye (middle of the fore head).It's a sign of God bless,same goes to putting a flower on the ears.She walked towards my side and knocked on my window.I scrolled down the window and she asked me where am I from.I said Malaysia and she did some prayers for my safety in Bali and for tonight's flight back to Malaysia.She sticked some rice on my third eye and a flower on my left ear.I felt like I'm a Balinese woman.That's how I got my profile photo in Facebook and in my blog.It's my last day in Bali.I don't want to go home~~Kara paid some money to the woman and we left.

After 30minutes,we were stopped by a local woman again and she just started doing prayers without we saying yes or no.Kara is just so kind to allow them doing the prayers and pay them again.Kara said it's really great that we got 2 blessings today.He shared with me what his mom taught him.Kara said:"My mom taught me since I'm young,in life we just need to be Honest.Be honest to others and be honest to ourselves.We can be Happy and have a good life."What a powerful statement.I agree with this teaching.Honesty brings harmony and life can be simple.My point of view and through my own experience,1 of the reason I felt stressed up,depress,furious,etc in the past because I am not honest in facing what is going on in my life or not being honest towards people.I need to spend lot of time in creating a story to cover another story that is made up.So life became complicated and miserable.Now i choose to be honest and spend my energy in creating a meaningful,peaceful and happy life.^^

It took us an hour to reach Bersakih where the Mother Temple of Bali located.It is called the Mother Temple because it's the largest temple in Bali.It has a combination of lot of small temples.I bought a new scarf at the stall.It cost me 30,000rph which is RM10.I need to wear a sarong before entering the temple.(Tips:Please buy a sarong/scarf and you can use it again & again when you visit different temples in Bali.)While walking we reached a stop where we need to buy entree ticket.The man insist that I need a local Bersakih tour guide to enter the Mother temple or else I'll be stopped in the temple and need to leave the temple.There is a praying ceremony going on and only selected spots and temples in Mother Temple can be visit by tourist.My guides(guardian angel) told me just walk away and walk towards the Mother Temple.The man at the counter was very mad.One of the local tour guide followed us and offered to bring me up to the temple.He talked to Kara and Kara dealed with him.Kara told me to follow him and don't pay him.He'll pay the tour guide later on when I come back down to find him.I said yes and followed the tour guide.I saw the praying ceremony and tourist are only allowed to stand at the wall and look.I am not allowed to stay too long and I proceed to other areas of the temple.The energy in Mother Temple is very different from other temple that I've been in Bali.Strong and steady energy flow.I ask who am I going to work with in Mother Temple while climbing up the stairs.After a few steps,I stopped.I asked the local tour guide to stop as well and have a sit beside to have a rest.It's here.Lord Shiva's temple.I placed my crystals on the wall to charge the energy and do their energy exchange work.They exchanged the energy that they brought from Waterfall Git Git and bring in Mother Temple's energy.After they finished their work,we left the spot and found a little hut where we can have a sit and rest.This is not the highest spot in Mother Temple.My guides told me that there is a huge temple in the middle of Mother temple where it is not accessible by tourist or locals.That's the main energy power station of Mother temple.I ask my local tour guide is it true and he answered yes with surprise.He told me that deep inside there is an area where it's good for doing meditation.He suggested that I visit and do meditation there the next time I'm in Bali.Lord Shiva has messages for this tour guide.I downloaded and told him.We walked down Mother Temple to meet Kara.Kara have a chat with him and ask me to pay him 10,000rph(RM3.40).The counter below charge at a higher price than 10,000rph.

We left Mother Temple and headed to Goa Lawah(Bats Cave).I put on my sarong again before entering the temple and there was a praying ceremony going on as well.I saw alot of bats flying in the cave.How many bats are in the cave?I am not sure because it looks like thousands!After a few photo shots we walked across the road and took my Nasi Campur with Fish Satay lunch.Having local lunch with coconut drinnk,with local Balinese topics and facing the sea.Bonus:There were a lot of white Dandelion flying in the sky when the sea wind blows.Wow!It is really Beautiful!Kara showed me his wife and kids' photos.He invited me to stay at his house in Denpansar on my next visit.He said:"Although it is a tiny house but you are welcome to stay together with us."Oww..He is really a Nice guy.

We have some time left before heading to the airport.Kara drove around and tried a few streets in Kuta to find me a CD shop to buy a CD.I have a calling to buy a CD but it's not for myself.I bought a dolphin therapy CD.(true enough when I'm back in KL,the next day I found the CD's owner,which is 1 of my client.)When we were waiting for the traffic light to turn green.Kara gave away his remaining oranges to the 2 kids that are begging for food in the middle of the main road.He gave what he have to others that needs it more than he does.To me,Balinese are truly simple and easy going.Being with these people that I met in Bali,I can open up my heart and just be myself.I love them because of who they are.Kara dropped me at the airport,I felt so bad that I did not give him more tips.I've spent all my rupiah and the remaining 150,000rph is for the airport tax.I promised myself that I'll be back in Bali again and find my Balinese friends.

I love my life in Bali.Bali is a place that I'll choose to visit again and again in my life.Nice places to visit,a great place to stay,great culture and great people.I learnt to have Faith in God,Let Go and surrender to God's plan.I followed the flow and divine's guidance throughout the journey.I treasure all the beautiful people that I met,the important messages,precious learnings and wonderful experiences in these 9 days.Thank you God and My Guardian Angels that made this Fantastic trip happen for me.I gain a lot and learnt a lot about life and loving myself.I look forward for the next Spiritual trip-1 month in Europe!!Yuhoo!!!^^

My Journey: Bali Day 8

6th March,Tue-Aiyo~I was so worry that I will be late for watching wildlife dolphins,I woke up every hour until my alarm clock woke me up again at 5am!Yeah!It's dolphin time!I prepared myself and I'm out to the lobby to meet up with the man that is going to pick me up at 5.30am.Oh Oh!It's so dark out there.My room is at the other end of the hotel.Along the way to lobby I passed by snakes,crocodiles, deer etc.It was too dark that I can't really see them.I was really scared and I kept calling for Archangel Michael's protection.The guy picked me up at 5.30am with his motorbike and again a journey to the beach without helmet.It's only a 5minutes ride and it's early in the morning so I'm not that nervous this round.

We reached the beach and it was so dark.We waited for a while till it's 6am,I helped the guy to push his boat out into the sea.I'm the only passenger!I paid 150,000rph,which is around RM51 for my 2 hours ride from 6-8am but ended I'm so lucky to booked the whole boat with that same amount.We started our journey to see wildlife dolphins.The sky begins to turn bright every minute and after 30minutes ride,I saw a dolphin!I'm all Excited!I thought that's it?Only 1 dolphin?After 40minutes ride I started to doubt that will I see dolphins.I can see there are lot of boats driving towards a direction.There are at least 4-5 people in a boat.I'm the only boat that have only 1 passenger.Great view without anyone blocking me!hehe!From far I can see a group of boats(around 5-6) forming a circle.The boat guy called my name,pointed a direction and ask me to look at it.Wow!It's a bunch of dolphins!!Argh!I'm Excited!Our boat approaches the same direction but these dolphins are really playful.They knew that there were so many boats and human being on the surface of the sea yet they are like playing hide and seek with us.Suddenly you can see them,suddenly they disappear.Suddenly they will appear again at another direction!You can hear the noises of motors,see all the boats switched their direction and started chasing the dolphins!It's a very unique experience!After 3-4 attempts of chasing the dolphins,i can only see them from far.I started to pray to Archangel Ariel(Archangel that take cares of the animals):"Archangel Ariel,Can u Please~Please ask the dolphins to jump beside my boat,Please~~"Once I open my eyes,Argh!!The dolphins are jumping along both side of my boat!They are so welcoming!The dolphins are only 10 meters away from me!I can see that they have grey skin and pink belly.This is how Balinese Dolphins look like!It's really Amazing and Exciting!!If I have a 0-10 rating bar for Excitement level,I'm hitting 10 and booming the rating bar!!I'm just so Excited!!I laughed and screamed like a crazy woman!I was so stunt and excited until I forgotten to snap photos!So the photos that I got are not that close up to the dolphins.After seeing the dolphins jumping off,My boat man said we gotta head back to the shore.We will not have enough petrol to go back if we don't leave now.Oww~I'm still excited!What I learnt here was Nothing last forever.After we turned our boat away from the dolphins,my excitement bar ratings started to dropped from 10,9.9,9.8,9.7...Happy moment doesn't last forever,same goes to sad moment.I just need to live in the right here right now moment.Today is the happiest day in my life!I really treasure my experience here.So I asked myself "What do you want do Now?"I decided to sing!I sang all the way back to the shore for the next 30minutes.

The boat man dropped me off nearby my hotel's seashore.He told me to just follow the road,after 5 minutes walk I'll reach Melka hotel.Ok!So I started walking.It doesn't seem to reach and I can't see any sign of Melka hotel.When I'm about to panic,I saw a place that looks like a farm.I walked in.I saw chickens,Deers and Horses.I asked the man who was standing in the farm:"Excuse me,may I know where is Melka hotel?"This man was so friendly that he offered to bring me to Melka hotel.His name was Ketut!The 3rd Ketut that I know in Bali!Oh!The ground that I'm standing on it's actually Melka hotel.We walked opposite the road and we passed by a big bird farm,saw bats and Ketut stopped."This way is to the restaurant and this is to the lobby."I thanked him and walked towards the restaurant and took my breakfast.

I headed to the dolphin show at 9am.When I reached the show area I saw "Pool under construction".The staffs told me that there will not be a show.I came so far and yet no show.I was a bit disappointed and went to walk around to check out the animals in the hotel.There were kangaroos,monkeys,tortoise,Iguana etc.I bumped into Ketut again.I asked him what he's doing here in the hotel.He is a dolphin trainer!He offered to make a special show for me.He took his fish,grabbed a small bottle from the fridge and headed to the dolphin pool.In the pool,there are 2 cute dolphins named Rainbow and Rocky.They are about 7-8years old.There are total of 4 dolphins in the hotel.2 of them were rescued from the circus and 2 were rescued from the sea where they were stucked at the fishing net.The hotel trained the dolphins to do dolphin theraphy.I'm fortunate & so lucky to be the only audience!Ketut instructed the dolphins to do some of their moves.Then he fed them with fish after their moves and he started to spray something into their blow hole on their head.I asked what is that bottle for.Ketut told me:"It's an inhaler.The dolphins have asthma."This is the 1st time I heard that dolphins have asthma too!Interesting discovery.The dolphins continue playing their moves and I enjoyed watching the special show.At 9.25am,one of the staff shouted from far:"Miss Miss..."She pointed at her watch.Oh!My session is at 9.30am.I rushed all the way back my room and bathed.It's a requirement for hotel guest who want to swim with the dolphins to bath with soap before entering the pool.

With flash speed I get myself prepared and rushed back to the dolphin pool.There were 2 gentlemen inside the pool that Ketut is taking charge of.The hotel only allow 2 guests to enter the pool per session.So I walked down to another pool where I meet another 2 dolphins which is Johnny and Gomlo.They are 10-11years old.I hand over my camera to 1 of the lady staff.She offered to help me up in snapping photos when I'm with the dolphins.I put on my life jacket and went into the pool with another lady.We were only allowed to stand straight in the pool and not to swim or kick,the dolphins will come to us.True enough that once the instructor showed his hand sign,the dolphins swam to us.They are very powerful,they swim to me and I was pushed to aside like I was hit by them.I touched them.They have hard body but smooth surface.Johnny is very friendly.Johnny lost 1 of its eye sight but yet he still looks like smiling to me.Gomlo is not really in a good mood,where he only swims underneath the water.I had a Great 20 minutes session with the 2 dolphins.The session ends with feeding the dolphins and kissing the dolphins.

I got myself out of the pool and planned to walk back to my room.I met Ketut and he asked me how's my experience with the dolphins.I told him that I was sad because I do not get to hug the dolphins just like what I saw the guests were doing in Ketut's dolphin pool.Ketut look at his watch and he said:"Ok,wait for another 10 minutes and you come into my pool.You will hug the dolphins and after hug you come out from the pool.Ok?"Wow!It's a Surprise bonus!I went into the pool and Ketut instructed Rainbow to come to me.Rainbow swam to me and get herself ready with the hugging position.I was so happy and don't know how to hug it.The instructor behind me said:"Hug it like hugging your boyfriend!"I just hugged Rainbow,it twisted in a circular motion and it went for a few rounds in the water.Rainbow is like leading me in dancing!Then,Rainbow started to hit my head with its beak.The instructor said:"Kiss it,Kiss it!"So i followed and kissed Rainbow.Once I kissed Rainbow,it went back to Ketut for its reward-Fish!Next on,it's Rocky's turn!Rocky did the same thing just like Rainbow did and we had a Great fun time together.Although it's only a less than 10 minutes session,I had my best time and best photo shots!Yuhoo!I'm a satisfied and Happy woman now!I paid 450,000rph(RM153) for a 20 minutes session with 2 dolphins but ended up I swam with 4dolphins in 30minutes!Hoho!Me,Ketut and another dolphin instructor are now friends in facebook.

Back to my friend Ketut who agreed upon fetching me at 10.30am.I rushed and packed everything,checked out the hotel without even drying my hair!He's late!So i took my time drying my hair at the lobby,went online and read my book.Ketut does has the most elastic time ever.I called him at 11am he told me he's at Waterfall GitGit and asked me to wait for another 10-15minutes.I called him at 11.30am he said another 5minutes.Ended up he reached at 11.45am!Well,he explained that there was a big praying ceremony at Bedugul,so the traffic was really bad.He started driving since 7.30am from Denpasar.Usually it'll take 3 hours to reach Singaraja but because of the jam he was driving for 4hours and 15minutes all alone.Poor thing!So we headed to Kintamani.It took us another 2hours to get up to Kintamani.It was raining a bit and foggy.Ketut helped me up in snapping some photos with Volcano Batur and Lake Batur at a common tourist spot.It's very cold here.I think it's cooler than Malaysia's Cameron Highlands.Ketut bought me Salak(local Balinese fruit) and pealed it for me.He's really a nice guy.I like Salak!^^..After some photos we went off to find for my hotel.Ketut needs to rush back to his hometown in Tabanan to do his prayers for his Italy work trip.After 30minutes,we went down the mountain and we went back up.The place where he parked his car actually was my hotel's car park!It stated very clearly at the car park entrance-Lakeview Hotel!Duh!We both laughed about it.After sending all my luggage to my room,it's the last time I saw Ketut in Bali.We still keep in touch via Facebook.Now he's in Sanova.He'll be in Italy for 8months and maybe we can play around again on July when I'm in Italy!Yuhoo!!

There is no air-con or fan in the room.The weather is very cooling where i cover myself up in my blanket and spent my time watching TV in my room the whole day.I planned to go for the hot spring that is about 15 minutes away from the hotel but ended up my "auntie" visited me right after I made my reservation.So I cancelled the trip.I'm not too bothered about not getting to go for Hot spring because at least it came after I swam together with the dolphins.My prayers worked.I said come after my swimming with dolphin session.Next time I should specify "auntie" please come after my trip.I enjoyed my own TV moments.I realized that it felt so great when I have the remote control in my hand and watched the channel that I like.All this while,I had been watching TV by following others' preference.It's a great "Me" time in Kintamani.I had both lunch and dinner on bed.During evening where the sun sets and it's about to turn dark,the view is really very Nice where Lake Batur and Volcano Batur are all in Blue.

It's really a fruitful and happy day!I gain lot of learning and it will be a day where I will remember it forever in my life.I love Dolphins!^^
