oh...i saw it in the mystery program...can't remember which channel.

Actually i never been to any island...except for the unknown islands...(which my late grandfather...bring me along)
 
When I was in Secondary school, our hostel organized a trip to Langkawi Islands.

On the second day, we've got this sea trip to visit smaller islands surrounding Langkawi. We was very exciting and making noises.

While approaching Dayang Bunting island. Suddenly the boatman told us taboos of the island:-

1) No Bad words
2) Dont take anything from the island.
3) Wear life-jacket when swimming in the Dayang Bunting Lake..

Then he stopped the boat in the middle of the sea.... and asked to observe the island's shape (the hills) ... and all of us went :uuh: :uuh: :uuh:

There were the face (complete with nose and mouth shape), the breast, the pregnant tummy, the knee and fingers of the feet..... It's like a pregnant giant sleeping covered with rainforests.

There was small jetty ... but because there were lots of tourists ... the boat stopped about 50 m from the beach .. and we have to walk (or swim) to the beach. To my amazement there were not a single sand there.... only small pebbles. And the island is made of marble ... no sands and slippery!!! The boatman said that all trees available in the Peninsula Malaysia are available too on Dayang Bunting Island... But I dont observe the trees but went direct to the lake.....looks so deep!!!! And yes it's DEEP!!! No wonder we have to wear life-jackets....

i think desert are holy, becuase if you want to live at desert locations you will definitely need patience. maybe god is testing prophets by making them live at desert. Just an opinion.

Not all the prophets lived in or near the desert, since every nation has had a warner?

I grew up in California, during vecation i visited death valley. The desert was very hot and sunny. I realised my water bottles was all empty, water was precious. I drove back to the cities, I had nothing with me besides being thirsty. My advice to you people is always fill your water containers, large or small. I look forward to visit Saudia Arabia deserts, its a lot different from death valley.

Lots of people travel to the sahara (north Africa) for medical reasons.
They bury people into the sand for a few moments and for some reason it cures them from certain illnesses.

Wa Allahu A'lam.
