Going to Madinah

It was Monday. At 02:15 local time or 06:15 West Indonesia Time the ship was  touching down on the King Abdulaziz Airport of Jeddah. We then were on queueing to check in the immigration booth. Before exiting the terminal building we had to pass one more check point. It just to verify the entrance checking. We were then on the buses line where the travel agent checked our attendances.  At 04:30 we left the airport for Madinah on a caravan of about 10 buses. We stopped by a masjid where we paid our dawn prayer. At 09:30 we arrived at the Dar Eiman Grand Hotel, Madinah.

We checked in the hotel, we got room #1112 (room #12, 11th floor).  We waited for about 2 hours to receive our luggages. At 12:25 was the zuhr time. After praying we had our lunch at the food room on M (mezzanine) floor. We had a sight seeing around the hotel. At 14:30 we had a rest in the room.

In maghrib time I and Nuri went to the Masjid Nabawi to do maghrib prayer. The men place was separated to the women one so I and Nuri were separated. We promised to meet after praying at a point near a gate. However, after I waited for a long time she did not show up. So, I went to the hotel to check her. I still did not find her.

In the evening I joined a group to do voluntary prayer on the Roudah Area. The area is believed to be a place that every begging to the God will be passed. Many people would pray there so we were organized in queues. At about 23:30 local time we settled the prayer.

After for a while in the room Nuri came. She had as usual got mad. She told that she has searched me after isha prayer and she has not find me. A miscommunication seemed happened.
