Looking Back Our Family Christmas 2000

Looking Back Our Family  Christmas 2000


After reminiscing the Our Family Christmas 1999, here another winding moment to my family Christmas  2000. Two months after I left for Saudi Arabia. It was one of my loneliest Christmas.  As an OFW (Overseas Foreign Worker) the most painful part is that we are not able to be with our family during this very special occasion. 


In the year 2000 internet is very seldom. Most of the internet were dial up.  The telephone bill was so expensive. It was 8 Saudi Riyals, compare it now only 1.5 Riyal per minute or 55 halala (cents). The minimum load is 100 Riyals. So I just called my family from a telephone cabin.
