Old photos around Seberang Perak

Feels like time is running out..no official proposal coming out yet..but I need to take some action for the sake of documentation




I think these are my mom's cousin who used to live in Pantai Johor and photo on the left is my father with my sister -Suhaili infront or Mak's house. I like this verandah with another few steps leading to the main house / living area. This is the place where we used to play 'masak-masak', 'kahwin2', 'kedai2'...and when raya came my late Uncle - Nazri will hang beautiful lantern ...I just love sitting here especially when it was raining, watching the red water flowing from the road and passed by this verandah before finding its way towards the river at the back...and back then I will always wait for Mr.Postman sending cards and letters from SA...heheheh..those were the days..

This is me with my third cousin Ina who lives in Langkawi, my farther''s shirt is light blue
..I noticed that I now dresses up my daughter just like this..dress and pants /legging...Ina is one year older than me, we used to be closed but with time passing by and separated by the straits..we are not that close anymore..but I always remember her..This photo was taken at the back of Mak's house which used to be the entrance, it is facing the river and compound with big jambu air tree planted by my late great grandma.
There used to be lines of pokok puding with colourful leaves next to that lime tree

My father and Ina's at the location my our current house, the house in the background was a Jkr Quarters, it was a semi detached house made of bricks for the pillar and mainly timber for the post and wall, it was built in July 1927.
I will blog about this house in my next entry...till then..enjoy these lovely photos...
