Yes... cuti-cuti Malaysia!
Bangun pagi2.. mandi, pakai santek2.. nak gi bercuti ngan incik husband yang hensem cam Hans Isaac tu.. Mak, Kimie & Nana pon ikut jugak.. (cbuk jer kan.. ;-p).
I’ve been hoping to go to this beautiful land since long, long time ago... hope that explains why I’ve been counting the days ever since October came into my life this year.
We left home at 6.45 am.. tu pon Halim, my brother da berkali2 call.. yer la janji at 6.30 am.. tp sebab kami org melayu, so janji melayu la kan.. lain la klu kami ni org belanda ker, bosnia ker.. sure x ikut janji melayu.
My brother sent us to KL Sentral and from there we took the feeder bus to LCCT. Our flight was at scheduled 10.20 am, 6th October 2010 but it was delayed for 15 minutes due to a technical error that was left unexplained.. tu mmg standard, mesti ckp technical error.. sumer pon technical error.
Hubby, the birthday boy..
Masa flight nak take off, tgok muka budak 2 ekor tu.. takut semacam jer. The journey was not very smooth, terasa berombak ckit.. masa tu.. jgn kata budak2 tu yg baru 1st time nek flight jer yg takut, me yg da tua bangka ni pon cuak gak...
We reached KK at 1.00 pm, met Roy from RF Transportation to take the pre-booked Kelisa and headed straight to find Promenade Hotel Apartment. We managed to find the apartment easily (cis, berlagak!) as it is situated in the heart of KK town.
We booked a family suite which according to the website could fit up to 6 people... surprisingly, it could actually fit up to 10 people!
Here’s the room.. huge & spacious..And it was only RM172.90 per night.
Settled with the room matter, we then hunted for food.. we have not had our lunch yet then. Since it was already passed 2.00pm, there was not much choices left, so we have to settle with a mamak restaurant.
1st stop, Pasar Ikan Masin.
Mom wanted to buy udang kering.. entah ape dia nk buat ngn udang kering tu.. beli banyak2 camtu. I pulak beli ikan masin terubuk & kuih cincin untuk makan sendiri and to be given to family & friend as ole-ole dari Sabah.
Next, we went to Handicraft Market or Pasar Filipina, yup.. mmg dah x sabar2 nak tengok mutiara-mutiara yang jadi igauan selama ni.
Memang meriah.. mutiara sana.. mutiara sini.. duit jer yg xder di sana dan di sini.. the price eventhough is cheaper than kl's price but still not that cheap.. but once you know how to goreng the seller, then you can get almost 50% discount!
Damage of the day, ckit jer.. sbb malu2 lagi nak shopping sakan.. hehe.. sebenarnya duit yang x baper nak banyak.. tu xleh shopping sakan..
After done with handicraft market, we then went to see what was going on outside of the handicraft market.. nampak macam meriah & happening jer...
My mom pon nampak x sabar2 to check out what they have out there..
Nama pasar malam ni is Pasar Malam Pasar Filiipina. But they start business as early as 5.00 pm everyday.
Ni dia.. memang la happening tengok seafood2 kat sini.. & CHEAP!!!!
Tengok lobster nih... hey, stop drooling!
This was our choice for side dish, umai.. raw fish mixed with air asam jawa & other ingredients.. ala.. mcm kerabu jugak.. tapi perlu diingat yer.. ikan yang digunakan adalah ikan mentah. However, still awesome.
x berani nak amik the huge lobster, we choose large prawn & sotong bakar.. kat pasar malam ni, sumer seafood masak bakar2 jer.. tapi mmg sedap sbb seafood sangat fresh.
Ni plak ikan bakar, kami pilih ikan jenahak.. it was only RM17.. murah kan...
Total damage for that night, RM85.00.. 3 ekor ikan besar, 3 ekor sotong, 3 udang & 2 pinggan rumpai laut yang crunchy & sedap.
Murah kan.. if in KL I seriously don't think we can get that price.. makan 1 ekor ikan jer pon da rm40+.
Selepas kenyang perut, kami balik ke bilik untuk berehat dan tido.. prepare for the following day.. nak gi islands hopping lak.. yey!!
Day 2 - 7th October 2010
Pagi ni sumer org bersemangat.. berebut nk guna blik air. Yang cbuk nk pakai suar pendek jer pon ade.. yang membebel marah org yang nk pakai suar pendek tu jer pon ade.. tapi yg tengah risau adalah incik driver.. takut sesat. nak harapkan co-pilot nyer, co-pilot x reti nk bacakan map.. so, camno???

Sampai kat jeti Jesselton Point, we straight away chartered a boat.. hehe.. mcm best jer kan chartered 1 boat khas utk kitorg 1 family..
Pastu sesi posing2 kt jeti...
Ni c nana yang poyo..
Me ngn cik abang sayang..
View kat jeti Jesselton Point..
Then we boarded the boat.. huhu.. takut.. tapi seronok..
dorang ni bkn kembar tau.. mak sedara ngn anak sedara..
muka takut
Mommy pon seronok...
1st island we visited was Pulau Mamutik.. santek pantainyer.. air jernih kehijauan.. tp ikan-ikan kt jeti nyer halus2 sangat. Ikan-ikan kat situ diet terlampau kot...
Oppsss.. forgot to inform.. there is an entry fee to enter all the islands charged to each person.. RM3.00 per person & limited to 5 islands per day (1 time entry only).
2nd island was Pulau Manukan, di war-warkan as pulau tersantek, but I think pantainyer x sebersih pantai kat Mamutik. Air nyer pon x sejernih air laut kt pantai Mamutik. Tapi jetinyer memang terbaek! Jeti sgt santek.. tu yang beria-ria bergambar kt jeti Pulau Manukan.
ni ntah pesen ape nyer snorkeling..
Jeti Pulau Manukan
The 3rd island was Pulau Sapi, pulau ni xder ape sgt.. tapi kalau utk snorkeling mmg cantik.. air jernih.. ikan pon xla kurus kering sgt..
byk lak yang berjemut kt cni...
Sepatutnye kami terus ke pulau ke-empat, Pulau Gaya.. tpi sbb there was nothing at the pulau, so we asked abg boat tu bwk kami pusing2 jer nek boat. Otw to perkampungan nelayan, rain started to pour down, ombak pon da mula makin besar. So, kami decided to balik ke Jesselton Point. Yer la.. laut da start bergelora, bahaya tuh.
Sampai kt KK, sementara nk tggu time nk gi tgok sunset kt Tanjung Aru, kami singgah di Signal Hill.. from here you can see the whole KK town, pemandangan dari atas bukit.. ala.. cam konon2 tgok dari menara tinjau la..
Cantik kan..
After that we went to pantai tanjung aru, to see sunset.. but not long after we reached at the beach, ujan plak turun menghapuskan impian kami utk melihat matahari terbenam di negeri di bawah bayu ni..
Di pantai Tanjung Aru..
Pas tu kami ke pasar mlam di Sinsuran lagi, nak mencari pearls lagi.. rupanya jauh lgi murah dari kt Pasar Filipina.. ape lagi, shopping sakan la.. tp sekadar tlg shoppingkan utk org lain jer la.. mak mentua kirim..
We had dinner at stalls near maybank.. punya la susah nk cari stalls utk mkn2.. jgn la berangan nk dpt cam Malis Corner or uptown danau kota.. or mungkin kami yg x tau nk cari kot...
Pas tu, ape lagi.. balik ke bilik & tido la...
Day 3 - 8th October 2010
Bangun tido, hubby went to find breakfast.. da lama la tu x dpt mkn nasi lemak.. hahaha..
But we were suprised to find out that the nasi lemak was yellow in color.. nasi lemak ke nasi kunyit??? tapi.. sbb lapar.. makan jer la..
Nasi lemak kuning
Selepas tu bermula lah pengembaraan hari ke 3 kami....
Earlier on we planned to go to Kinabalu Park or Rafflesia Centre, but due to the distance, kami trpksa batalkan niat, sbb jauh & kami pon x tau condition kete tu. So kami decided to go to tempat2 yang dekat jer.
Destinasi pertama, Lok Kawi Wildlife Park at Lok Kawi. Adelah dlm 30 minit dari KK town.
The park was not so big though.. took us less than 2 hours to finish the tour. Then we had our lunch at one restaurant near the hospital.. x ingt nama kedai tu.
Our next stop was Pantai Tg Likas, nice beach even though air nya x sejernih air kt pulau2 yg kami pergi ari sebelum nye.
Masjid dari tepi pantai
Kat Pantai Tanjung Likas
Setelah puas bercanda dipasiran pantai tu, kami bergerak ke destinasi seterusnya..
Kami kemudian ke Akuarium dan Muzium Marin di UMS.
Rangka penyu
Ikan besar... besar punyer!!!!
Malam tu kami decided to go mkn seafood.. yer la.. da malam last kami kt ctu..
Setelah pening2 pikir2.. kami akhirnya memilih utk makan malam di medan selera di Tanjung Likas.
Menu pilihan, ikan susu masak 3 rasa, ikan kerapu kukus asam boi, sotong goreng tepung, udang mentega & sayur kailan ikan masin. Teringin nk makan 'Sabah Vege', tp xde plak mlm tu.. :-(
Total harga makan malam tu, was RM180.00.. xla murah sgt, tpi ok la.. bkn selalu kan...
Lepas makan, sekali lagi kami ke Pasar Malam Sinsuran.. hahaha.. apa lagi, jalan-jalan cari mutiara la.. *ngeeeee*
Day 4 - 9th October 2010
Hari terakhir di KK, sumer da x sabar nk balik.. da rindu makanan KL.. hehe.. tu baru 4 ari.. lum 4 bulan lgi...
Pas check-out dlm kol 11 lebih, kami terus ke airport, simpan barang di tempat simpan luggage (berbayar k, bkn free of charge) sbb our flight was at night, tp kete nk pulangkan at noon.. xkan la nk berjalan bwk bag2 ngn kotak2 ikan masin madam Azizah (my mom) tu lak.
On the way back from the airport, we saw an accident.. a biker, terbaring berdarah.. and we saw his big bike pon da tersadai. Orang da ramai mengerumuni mangsa.. but what we did not know was, the person lying on the road was actually the Ahli Parlimen Barisan Nasional (BN) Batu Sapi, Datuk Edmund Chong. We only knew about it when we have reached KL.. tu pon pagi esoknya.. takziah to his family.
Destinasi kami sebelum memulangkan kereta sewa, adalah ke Masjid Bandaraya atau turut dikenali as Masjid Terapung KK.
Kami menunaikan solat zohor memandangkan da masuk waktu zohor masa tu, then kami berposing jap untuk kenangan.
Konon model la tu..
Seterusnya kami ke bandar sebab da hampir sampai masa untuk pulangkan kereta sewa. Kami park betul2 depan kedai pemborong mutiara.. ape lagi.. orang yang giler mutiara nih terus la masuk..
Pastu mula la rasa sakit sangat ati, bila di dpati rupanya kt kedai ni lagi murah.. arggggghhhh..
Mutiara2 yang belum di buat gelang atau rantai boleh dibeli dengan harga yang sgt2 murah.. disebabkan x puas ati, aku beli jugak 2 string mutiara, dan mtk budak kedai tu buat jd rantai panjang.. baru aku leh senyum2 simpul pastu..
Adik ni (anak tauke kedai kot) sedang membuat rantai panjang ku..
Kami lunch di food court di pasar besar KK.. lauk harian kt sini mmg x baper kena ngn my selera, tapi telan jer la.. xkan nk mkn seafood jer sentiasa, mau marah mr husband nti.
Selepas lunch kami bercadang nak ke pasar Filipina sekali lagi, kali ni utk cari T-Shirt pulak. Otw ke pasar filipina tu kami terjumpa kakak ni jual kuih bulat2 ni.. x tau la ape nama kuih ni.. tapi sedap..
Pas beli T-Shirt utk kenangan & buah tangan, kami terus cari port utk minum petang sebelum berangkat ke airport. Sekali lagi kami meronda di pasar malam pasar filipina, peniaga bru mula nk bukak kedai.. baru mula nak membakar seafood & kepak ayam.
Kepak ayam aku x heran sgt.. kt KL melambak. Tapi sotong bakar tu buat aku rasa xmo balik KL.. huhu..
akhirnya aku tapau 3 ekor sotong bakar, leh makan kt KL.. kira cam aku import la sotong tu.. hehe..
sedap nya.. besar2 n murah2 lak tu..
Ni view kat kawasan pasar malam tu
Pas minum and selesai cari T-Shirt untuk adikku, Halim.. kami pon amik cab ke airport. the charge was RM30, reasonable la tu kot.
When we reached the airport, we found out out that the flight was delayed again, sbb cuaca agak buruk.. & sekali lgi sumer suda risau. Yer la, da malam pulak tu kan.
Finally, the flight took off at 8.45pm.. it was quite a bumpy ride jugak.. we were asked to put our seat belt on almost all the time, smpai la tiba kt LCCT.
Kat LCCT menunggu lagi, my sister in-law lambat ckit. Then kami terus pergi makan, & kebetulan my father in-law pon ade kt KL, so jumpa la dia sekejap.
The trip was fun, walaupun agak kelam kabut sbb kami pon x tau sgt KK, & kami x sempat nak buat full research.. but next time, kami akn betul2 rancang.. hopefully, akan ade 2nd honeymoon.. kan mr husband kan..
