New Malaysian friends

Puteri Harbour Marina

Johor, Malaysia

Many people visit the marina just to get away from the “city.” The day we returned form Melaka DorMac provided the setting for wedding photos.

They were a lovely young couple. He was just so excited to use our boat and she was such a good sport climbing around in very high heels and a hoop-bottomed dress in the blazing heat. These are my photos but they had professionals taking photos. The actual wedding won’t take place until January. We also gave the young couple a tour of DoraMac before they went off to finish their photo session along the dock. It was lots of fun.

This lovely family from Johor Bahru had come to Puteri Harbour Marina just for an outing during the Hari Raya holiday that ends Ramadan here in Malaysia. Randal invited them onto the boat and we had a wonderful visit. Mr. Khalid is fluent in English, German and of course the Malaysia Bahasa. Nur Hazimah, his 20 year old daughter is studying computer science. Mrs. Khalid works and all of the children are in school. If I remember correctly, Mr. Khalid has a consulting business related mostly to the implementation of ISO regulations concerning environmental issues. Making friends around the world is what travel is all about!
