Again, lifting from my dearie fren's blog... muahs to Cakcibo!
harlow. i'm so malas to update my blog. the internet connection seems to be quite unrealiable lately. selow nak mampus. hehe.. so, i'm not uploading any pictures here, just a home made video for your viewing. eh?
continuing from the previous entry, our journey brought us to Kota Bharu, Kelantan. after a 3 hours bus journey, we arrived at the KB bus station. Ogy's student, Joe volunteered to pick us up and bring us around.
we had lunch at pusat kraftangan which was very cheap. and food was really nice too. we went to MPKB for some tudung. everything is quite cheap but we were running low on cash already.
we stayed at gee's friend's (Mila) place in Kubang Kerian near USM. i think i have a pakcik saudara somewhere there but i dont know which one. and time was quite limited so not so much time berziarah.
the next day, we took Mila's car and drive around self around KB. we got lost getting to Pasar Besar Siti Khadijah and after almost 30minutes asking around, we finally found the pasar. first thing we did was looking for nasi dagang! hehe. we all know nasi dagang kelantan and terengganu is different from one another, but both was very yummeh. and cheap..
the pasar offered us keropok, rempah, delicacies and sorts. i managed to grab hold a bottle of tomyam paste that was quite very good! later somebody told me i should've bought the paste for paprik. aiya, mana aku tau la..
after spending more cash at the pasar, we took a long trip to Rantau Panjang. no maps nor knowledge getting to that place, we only followed the signboard. Apparently, its quite good, the journey took us 45minutes to the place.
running very almost none cash in hand, we made a 2 hours pusing2 around the place. bought more tudung, bags, shoes??? and cashew nut! hehehe.. we had to make a move when we finally managed to be cashless. nasib baik xde tol nak bayo!!
the journey back to KB from rantau panjang took us on a different route. a new highway next to the sawah bendang was quite peaceful. i was driving so not so much picture there.
we took a short lunch break at KB Mall. managed to be sesat again getting to Kubang Kerian and by the time we got back home, we were running on masa kecemasan to pack and mandi manda. hehe.. it was quite a 100metres dash.
The KB airport is quite a modern airport. it's very2 nice and comfortable. the sad part is/was i couldn't get any fridge magnet from Kelantan. anybody knows where to get one eh?
journey home was very2 tiring. and a full flight. ada this one chic on the same flight that was wearing this white sexy dress. ok, i dont mind sexy people, but please la.. kindly not show your underwear to everbody around u. so not appetizing ok? sexy is ok, but slutty is a no-no.
the trip to KB was very entertaining but rasa macam tak puas. maybe it was shorter than the one in KT, but still quite very enjoyable one.
Take your time visiting our country people, there's so much more place to explore with new experience and adventure.
I went for this trip with Shaz... and I have this very lazy thingy writing about the trip since Shaz has detailed it beautifully... So, I just lift this from Shaz's blog and paste it here. Thank you, cik Shaza Azmy... and sorry babe! I had a very enjoyable time!
Coming back from Melaka, we had a one night compulsory rest in Bandar Baru Bangi. The first team to arrive yesterday leaves first. hehe. feeling Amazing Race gitu eh? Yeah, Gee managed to wake me up at 4 am to mandi and get ready for LCCT. And we had breakfast at the ever so penuh McD. lots of kiasu people in the morning i tell you. heh..
Day One Flight to KT is only a 55-minutes journey. Flight was very kosong, kiteorg duduksorang2 per row coz we both wanted the window view. hehe. mau gadoh kot kalau kene beralah for the seat, kan gee? hahaha. lama betul tak naik flight domestic ni, the last time was to Kuantan in 93. but kalau orang tanye berapa lama flight tu, i would say, "sebungkus ribena RM4.50 yang di tuang ke dlm cawan berisi ais untuk sejuk dan di minum sehingga habis" and thats not long kan?Our very own PSU (that's Penolong Setiausaha Kerajaan Negeri for the rest of you) En Zul was already waiting for us via arrival at Sultan Mahmud Airport. Off we went for breakfast near the ocean, but that particular Sunday, the Tganu-ian was on cuti ganti Awal Muharram. But we made a stop for pictures la kan?
My Love-Hate relationship Partner
So we had breakfast. so gossip time. Yeah, time to update Zul with KL juicy gossips. we kind of give him a shock actually. hehe. i aint telling u the gossip here though. u know who u are.. yeah, so breakfast was Nasi Minyak and Nasi Dagang. i had Teh Peng!! lama siut tak sebut tu. dlu kat kuantan belajar the language, kind of nice to say it again.We stayed at Zul's place in Jalan Kamaruddin. apparently, a family friend found out i was in KT, so we invited ourself for lunch at their place. But before lunch, Zul showed us around KT. We went to Pulau Duyong to check out the Monsoon Cup area. it's still under renovation, but very2 nice place.Then we went to Dataran Syahbandar. It's like a dermaga, but not quite, but very2 nice. There's a kraft shop selling very2 nice hand woven baskets, bags and sorts. Memandangkan we had the 'org gomen' with us, we kinda get few things cheaper. ehehe.. but do stop at the shop, it under a ship-like store.oh, i can't remember did we go to the mosque first or town? hmm.. nyways doesn't matter pun, we went and visit the famous Masjid Terapung or Masjid Tengku Tengah Zaharah. It's very beautiful up close, seriously. Wished i was around that area during sunset, but didn't get the chance.
Peacefulness at it's best
I forgot. we went to HQ of SUK, KT. cool place. the typicall gomen office, but it's kind of a proud moment when seeing his name on the door. my friend, one of the guys. we have friends in high places!!! hehehehe... oh ya.. we went to the Club house of Gomen Officer and had karaoke session. the system was firstly hard to digest but we karaoke expert managed to make our way through it. hahahahha..
After that, we balik home for a while and we kinda pengsan. The hot scorching day made us took quite a nap to slumber. hehe. we woke up when Zul membebel2 in front of our room saying things like "Oi, kalau nak tido baik takyah datang KT".. adoi, it was already 6! we lost precious hour by sleeping. but the sleep was quite refreshing!So zul took us on a 20 minutes drive to Teluk Ketapang for Seafood goreng tepung! Everything was nicely celup with tasty tepung and deep fried! wow! it was really sedap ok. and cheap! It was already maghrib time, so Bapak Zul didn't let me browse thru the area too much. takot aku kene sorok kot? hehehe..
We didn't do anything much that night. it was the Musik Musik final, so lepak2 at home je. kalau keluar pon, we'd be too tired even to walk!
Day Two it's good to wake up and know you're in an exciting place. Had light breakfast, but still drooling on the idea of Nasi Dagang! i'm in my day two and i have even taste it! wah, thats not good.But zul had to work, and his wife Najah too. So we were thinking of doing some sightseeing ourself. hey it's our country right? we're supposed to be able to navigate ourself around right?no. we didn't. not that we got afraid but zul wouldn't let us. hahahhha. somehow he's like a big brother that i dont have. he had his suk driver to send us to Museum Terengganu.
it's a big place, all 67 acres of it. but we only managed to go around the main museum and that already took us 2 hours. wow. it's very2 nice place. go check out the museum whenever you're in KT. it's definitely worth it.Next we were sent off to Pasar Payang to do some shopping, but we decided to talk a walk to Dataran Shahbandar for few souviners (camne eja la?) and lunch break at Restoran Terapung. adoilah!! still no Nasi Dagang!! huwaa.. i was ready to get desperate, but this really nice drink managed to calm me..
Then, before Pasar Payang, we took a boat trip to Seberang Takir. Zul told us it was a Rm0.50 ride, but the pakcik asked for RM0.80. so i was telling ogy, the pakcik paw us. apparently, zul was wrong.. it's actually is a rm0.80 ride. hehhee..
Then we went off to Pasar Payang for shopping time. By this time, my battery was low and memory running out. so xde gambar at this part of activity. and time and cash is actually jealous of us. by 4 we were 30kg heavier and thinning purses.the batiks... i shall be back!!That night Zul went around looking for Nasi dagang for me. hehehe. tapi nerder malam2 kan.. so we had nasi lemak from dataran shahbandar. oh wait, laksam, lakse and nasi lemak! hehehe.. awesome personified!we took the earliest bus out of KT to KB. and yes, we did have our nasi dagang. sedap. and very cheap.. at the new bus station in KT. but that's on a different story page altogether.Kuala Terengganu is an awesome place! Takde jam, except near mydin that was newly opened, but the rest is smooth flowing. Very nice beach, very nice food, and above all, a shopping paradise with a big RM on it! hehhe... seriously! And we had the nicest tuan rumah, so thank you very2 much for your hospitality!!
