- What might families enjoy in Penang, Malaysia? What do reviewers
say about each attraction? We start from the ferry terminal, course
through the city, northwest for kid-friendly attractions, south to
Balik Pulau, swing around to the War Museum, aquarium, and plane

 - melancong, percuma, travel
- Melancong adalah aktiviti yang paling menyeronokkan di dunia!
Kerana apa? Kerana kita dapat melihat budaya dan gaya hidup negara
orang. Bak kata pepatah, “jauh berjalan, luas pemandangan.”

Learning Questions: Cuba anda bertanya kepada orang di sekeliling anda. Siapa tidak suka melancong? Lebih 80% akan mengatakan, “Ya, saya ingin melancong!” Mungkin tidak lebih 10% sahaja yang mengatakan tidak ingin melancong. Betulkah? Jika diajukan pertanyaan ini kepada saya, memang sudah pasti saya ingin! Siapa yang tidak mahu kan? Jika berkesempatan, saya ingin pergi ke semua negara. Itupun jika ada rezeki dan diizinkan Allah. Ada juga yang mengatakan, “Dari pergi melancong, bukankah lebih baik menunaikan umrah atau haji?” Ya, semua orang ingin melakukan ibadah mulia itu termasuklah diri saya, Insha-Allah. Semua bergantung pada niat dan usaha. Namun persoalannya sekarang, kenapa perlu melancong?
Melancong adalah aktiviti yang paling menyeronokkan di dunia! Kerana apa? Kerana kita dapat melihat budaya dan gaya hidup negara orang. Bak kata pepatah, “jauh berjalan, luas pemandangan.”
Mungkin di sini boleh dikongsikan sedikit sebanyak kenapa perlu melancong. Jom kita lihat dibawah! 1.Mempelajari dalam menyesuaikan diri. Kita boleh merancang destinasi mana yang ingin dituju, tetapi tidak semestinya apa yang kita rancang kita akan miliki, apabila di negara orang, kita perlulah mempelajari untuk menyesuaikan diri dengan perkara yang baru termasuklah orang di sekeliling dari pelbagai sudut perspektif yang berbeza. Terdapat negara yang mempunyai empat musim di mana ianya amatlah berbeza dengan negara kita, maka ianya perlulah dititik beratkan terutamanya musim sejuk.
2. Menerokai perkara-perkara baru. Kita akan mengalami dan menemui perkara-perkara baru dalam hidup apabila bertandang ke negara orang. Melancong adalah salah satu cara untuk membuka mata dan minda serta menimba ilmu dan merasai pengalaman baru. Pergilah melancong! Bila sudah rasai sekali, pasti ingin melancong lagi sekali. Salah satu perkara yang bakal diterokai buat para pelancong ialah perbezaan budaya, udara yang berlainan serta suasana yang sangat berbeza dengan tempat sendiri. Percayalah
3. Kejutan selera makan. Apabila berkunjung ke negara asing, sudah tentunya kita ingin merasai makanan mereka. Apa yang penting, pastikan makanan yang dijamah itu adalah halal. Menjadi satu kerugian jika melancong tetapi tidak mengambil peluang untuk memakan makanan tempatan di situ. Sekali-sekala, cuba kita hidup tanpa makanan di negara sendiri.
4. Pengembaraan idaman. Terokai destinasi baru, pergilah ke tempat yang diidam-idamkan. Jadikan destinasi idaman yang dikunjungi sebagai satu kenangan yang paling indah dalam hidup anda. Nikmati suasana bersama-sama keluarga, rakan-rakan dan orang yang tersayang.

- What can best describe "Recuerdos de la Alhambra?" Melancholy,
uplifting, and hauntingly beautiful: Melancholy yet uplifting as
this classical gutar piece slides effortlessly from minor into
major keys. Hauntingly beautiful - as the thumb plays the counter
melody in the difficult "tremolo" technique - like a backstory
recalling the great moorish palace-fortress of Al-Ahmar, of the
kingdom of Granada, from an era when muslims ruled Spain and
brought enlightenment to Europe.

StreetView, and panoramas bring the world into our room. Most
