Langkawi Trip

20.10.2014

It's been a very long time since I write a blog, this event happened long ago, last year, if I could say. Today, I want to refresh my memory by telling a story of "that" day. ^.^

In a wonderful, cool, windy, rainy morning,a malay cuisine shop, selling variety of food, but not so delicious, in a rude manner of speaking. We arrive, and phew, the chilling sensation of every single drop of rain onto the skin. Yeah, it's drizzle in the morning, but with enough sunlight to realize it's a fine morning. There's a cute little girl, playing along with other kid; she's a foreigner, and that's what gained my attention; Yeah, none is born racist. Despite such cool and drizzling rain, we entered the Aquarium; a well-known aquarium in Malaysia, and find ourselves surrounded by fishes; of course it is! It wouldn't called an aquarium if you're not surrounded by fishes.

A fine new experiences gained, *sound effect* LEVELED UP! Variety of fishes, living habitat and scenery can be found inside, I would exclude a fine, clear, enormous wall painting inside where we take a photo of it. It's good to see everyone walking around and taking photograph; especially some of the rare sea-living creatures. Penguins; cute,adorable,beautiful and dumb little bird, caught my attention the most. I feel like want to bring one, no! Maybe all of them back to my home. Haha. Sea shells, jelly fish, and many more; only can be found in aquarium, unless you dive into the sea yourself. xD

A fine morning was occupied inside aquarium, there's a tax-free supermarket at the end of the entrance;where we buy some drinks and rest a while before our stomach start to rumble. Next station; The PALM View Restaurant; I rate 4 to 5 stars. Foods were delicious and the theme was nice(vintage).Following is the theme of the restaurant.

LOL, with so much photos, we just reached almost 30% of the story. Let's continue again, shall we? Haha. Next, we went to a jetty; fully occupied by sampan, boat, yacht and luxury yacht. They were parked along the jetty as if with an ascending order in term of price. We can't walk along the pathway; it meant only for local residences. If I can have a word to describe the place; BEAUTIFUL. It makes me feel like owning a yacht in the future; naah,just building castle on the air. We took some of the group photo, and I took a photo along the jetty. Let's enjoy, shall we? Haha.

Phew, sudden change of the weather, from drizzling cool rain, to hot and sunny daylight. Droplet of sweat dripping and seep into everyone's shirt, it's Malaysia after all. The journey continue..; Oriental village, a village, perhaps no, a small recreation centre for tourist. A step down from vehicle, apparently, cable car on top of us, slowly bringing its passenger towards the peak of whatever mt. they called it. Yet, the honor doesn't belongs to us, due to insufficient time allowed for the trip. However, sorrow doesn't last long, when yvonne's brother attention was caught by 3D Racing Game. Hard, exciting game it was. The time goes as he plays, where I used it to take a few shot of photos around the area, lets take a look.

Upon walking and enjoying, hunger strike each of us; entering dinner period, I should say. No! Not after we truly laugh at each other at Banana Boat event, swimming around with a single trunk;men only. Hours were spent, at beach. I can still remember the genuine smile crafted on Louis face, when he floating on the shore. Looks like everyone enjoying, not sure, Joseph took my camera and disappear. Everyone certainly enjoying. =D

Island to visit, Langkawi be my first

19/10/2014

Hi, I'm here to write my diary again. This time, it's a trip to Pulau Langkawi. I had to drive alone to Sri Kembangan to meet my friend, Louis. I started my journey at 1030 and reached his house at 1300. Due to some "technical problems", my friends and I reach KL Sentral approximately 1 hours late than expected. However, everything turned out to be okay. We took Sky Bus to Kuala Lumpur International Airport 2 (KLIA2) and waited for departure. It's my first time boarding aeroplane and I felt excited about it. At first, I don't really like the way of waiting at departure sectors. The seat of Air Asia aeroplane also quiet small and I don't feels comfortable at all. Perhaps, it's my first time boarding aeroplane after all. Once the plane started its engine, my feeling turned out to being quiet excited. I'm curious about the function in every part of the airplane. How such of a big thing can fly up above the sky? In addition of adding such amount of passengers. Suddenly, I felt engineers really did an awesome job in the past. I don't speak much, I only mumble about how the airplane's wings function and the moment it soared up above the sky, I stunned. The sky was wonderful. It's white, soft, cotton-like shape. However, about 20 minutes of flight, a captain informed us that the weather was not as expected and reminded us to take some precautions steps. After the plane stopped, we called for car rental (pre-order) and check in motel. Here's some photos of the sky and motel.

A for Amazing, B for Birthday!

0700~1000

Hi all,  what's new on this post? Well, nothing new but still an important occasion. It's Nic Birthday. Whose Nic? I will let you know on photo sections later. He looked happy today. How happy? Have you ever seen a dolphin in amusement parks? Ya, it's smiling no matter had what happened. It's a compliment, I insist. A birthday is greatly associated with venues, and where is it? Sizzling Stonegrill at AEON Jusco Malacca. This venue is a romantic, dim-lighted, quiet and relaxing place, yet still become one of the best places to celebrate one's birthday. It is located in a shopping centre after all. This place indeed deserves some rating, except for its above-average-priced foods.

Since this blog is themed on places and foods, this blog will of course introduce you foods and

drinks. First of all, stare/look/observe/focus on the picture on the right. You recognize this picture? If not, now you should do. One of the famous restaurant here, in Malacca. The theme of this restaurant is stone, grilled, raw food, where the foods are then placed on sizzling hot, burning stone. This mean food served best for customers (since the meat itself was raw).
P/s : Please wait until foods are cooked before you serve.

Spicy Soup Noodles : : Burning hot feeling.

Iced Nescafe : : Optional sugar/milk

Sizzling Chicken Meat : : Raw

Mixed Meats with Fried Rice : : Raw

Chicken Meat Satay with Mashed Potatoes

Raw Salmon with Fried Rice

Well, let us discover whose birthday today. Special birthday wishes for him.

Trip and Fall Part 2

Saturday, 11/10/2014

0000 ~ 0100

While everyone was busy playing simple board game (Police Vs Killer), I went out to capturing some night view photographs, mainly focused on the Clock Tower of Muar, Royal Crown of Muar and First Muar Bridge. These place are famous due to it's magnificent, colorful light during the night and had become one of the most famous tourist attractions in Muar. Everyone knew about this place when you tell them, Muar-ians. A WOW factor given when I see the clock tower closed up, indeed a beautiful piece of architecture, including the bridge too. Perhaps, fishing was a kind of famous hobby around here because all I can see was people lining up along the bridge, not to mention motorcycles too. A big, tired day to end with after all.

The Royal Crown : : 麻波王冠

0900 ~ 1200

Can I suggest that 0900's are actually kinda early for me? I can't even make my eyes open. Breakfast, a meal that I skipped for almost everyday, was taken in my friend's house (again). This time, handmade shumai made my day. According to his parents, these shumai-s were not available at the other place and it were out of order before noon. I'm glad to be able to lay my hands on them. Yummy~! Not to mention, the noodles made by his mother were delicious as well. At some points, I felt that the foods were too much for me. Happy moments passed quickly as the dateline for hotel check-out had reached. I check-out of the hotel after having a nice, comfortable bath.

ShuMai : : 烧卖

1200 ~ 1400

What's next? Again, I reached Tanjung Emas. However, it was a different part of Tanjung Emas. Did I forget to mention that Tanjung Emas was quiet big? Well, now I do. Since Muar was an estuary and I went to it's river sides, sea side view was a compulsory place to visit after all. This side, a long, plain yet beautiful, tarred road awaiting walkers to walk and enjoy the coastline view. However, the haze was quiet heavy at the time and reduce its rating. I could see some people enjoying fishing there, people walking along the path and nothing else. A place to relax and free up your stressed mind, I suggest. At the very end of the path, there was a small jetty-like bridge, zig-zag-ed along the coastline towards the sea, yet not very far from the land. Along the bridge, I could see mangrove trees and few monkeys. First thing came to my mind is "Oh! I love Malaysia". Afterwards, I went back to river sides and take some day light photographs to say good bye to such a fine place. It deserved some rating.

Welcome and Good Bye

1400 ~ 1800

After a tired, long, hot, muggy walking on the path, I spent my time at Oasis Bay. Oh! Not a bay actually, it was a simple, small, quiet farm which is a best place to rest at. Well, still a farm after all and it wouldn't lack of cows, plants, useful tree, lake and a shelter. Well, when I say a shelter, it means a big kind of dominatory for students, at least 20 of them able to fit in and WHY? Well, this place was rented to a group of people/pupils to spend time together doing activities and events during school holiday. I strongly recommend a place like this for school activities to be held. It is a best way to spend your holiday with nature. I'm a nature lover after all. The painting on the wall surrounded the Oasis Bay caught my attention when I entered. Perhaps, it was the most attractive things in Oasis Bay, other doesn't differs too, I drank coconut milkshake here too but it was not as tasty as coconut milkshakes in Malacca. Well, it doesn't mean it were not tasty, I manage to finish it all, alone. Lets see some photos for better understanding.

Front gate : : As big as 5 men standing.

Even toilet doors were nature in theme

Scarecrow : : 稻草人

Main Lobby : : look classic for me

Couple Section : : 情侣合照区

1800 ~ End of trip, Fall.

Well, it turned to the end of the trip. Actually, its not the end of the trip. I went to Sweet Sweet House in Muar Town. It was a cute, adorable, pink cafe which was mostly consist of Hello Kitty dolls yet creepy (for me). If I'm a girl, this is my place. I repeat, MY PLACE. I also dropped by at Bentayan Road to purchase some otak-otak for my family when I got home. I'm missing Muar already. Farewell.
