New Year in Mecca

New Year's Eve 2008, exactly dated December 31, 2007 Monday I was in the holy land of Mecca. For the first time I felt was far beyond Indonesia and the atmosphere is not like in Indonesia. Where in Indonesia or other countries every turn of the year will be celebrated very lively.

All television stations will show the race the best and most crowded. Atmosphere into the new year is bustling, luxurious, especially among the young, maybe they have a convoy at night, partying into the night, on purpose to wait for the seconds at 12 at night.

Another with the holy land of Mecca. New Year's Eve passed as usual. I happened to be in front of the Grand Mosque because tomorrow I've had to go to Medina. There was a sense of sadness at having to leave Mecca I love the chance I take that to the 2nd wave Medinanya later.

Arab residents and pilgrims from various countries remain in kekhusyuan go to the Grand Mosque and worship closer to God.

On every Monday night and Thursday night the Arabs shaum used to open Thursday at the mosque Monday. They gathered together to bring the food, breaking with the mosque. In fact they always distribute food at every mosque. How wonderful atmosphere and I missed it.
