KL trip 08-121106
tired... juz got back fr KL yesterday nite but cant take leave today coz hv work to clear. sianz~~
didnt go ard town alot this time round. spent most of the time rotting my time away. didnt buy much things either this time round too.
day 1
reached kl ard 11plus. slept most of the way coz pretty tired hving to rush ard n back hm. didnt even hv time to hv lunch n dinner till the bus stop halfway at the food centre for us to go to loo n makan. managed to hv the famous hokkien mee for supper b4 calling it a nite ;p
day 2
spent rotting ard in my grandma's kampong catching up with the grand aunts. didnt hv time to go swimming at the river coz aunt wanted to ruch hm to fetch her kids fr sch. too bad the other uncle is not in m'sia oredi, if not he'll def bring us there. must bug my aunts to bring me there if we go back during cny next yr. anyway so relaxing to be wandering ard the kampong during a weekday while everyone else was busy at work ;p
spend the evening @ the neighbourhood mall, selayang mall as usual for some shopping.
grandma's hse. looks small on the outside but really huge on the inside, bigger than my own hse :)
view from grandma's door road in front of grandma's hse grandma's little vege farm relaxing @ kampong coffee shop grandpa's rambutan tree more kampong view century old temple in the kampong mum n the aunts used to come to this shop hse as kids to make candles to earn a living in the older days
day 3
had planned to take the train to town with my parents for a full day of shopping but one of the aunt n her husband were free so they offered to drive us ard so "spoilt" our plans coz difficult to go to diff shopping centres when u are driving unlike public transport. also since dad wasnt feeling well, we didnt go to queue up for the ticks for the link bridge of klcc. only went there in the afternoon to shop ard abit.
the only plus part of the day was driving up to genting for a spin at nite ard 7plus. it was only an hrs journey fr my aunt's hse so we went up for some fresh air ;)... there were alot of pple driving uphill ard that time n even though it wasnt any ph or sch holidays yet. maybe coz it was fri nite n pple were going up for the wkends. havent been there for ard 5-6yrs i think. there were more shops n food outlets at the new 1st world plaza (cant remember the name correctly). the new indoor theme park there was pretty nice too. didnt get to take any rides coz not worth it to buy a tick (those ride all u want type) since it was so late. wandered round with the 3rd aunt n her family while the other aunt n husband n my parents went to the casino. the whole place was really crowded n there were kids on rides even at 10plus. tink the indoor park closes ard 11pm. so basically i went to genting juz for marrybrown fried chicken n fresh air while my bro n his gf went up there juz for coffee the wk b4 ;p
luv the weather! didnt even bring any sweater up ;p the fog view without flash view with flash (too much water vapour in the air) indoor theme park nice hotel lobby
day 4
finally get to go out on our own, mum didnt come along coz the younger cousins wanted to tag along n those bunch of monkeys are uncontrollable. brought dad round town on the ktm, lrt n monorail with my cousin. 1st stop was jalan petaling. not much to shop or do there. only went there juz for lunch ;p...
jalan petaling
horrid weather over in kl these past few days. it would be really hot in the morning but it'll start pouring in the afternoon and hence we were caught in the rain upon arrival @ jln petaling. didnt know where to find the nice stalls so juz went in one that look decent enough to hv lunch n escape fr the rain. food was so-so onli. went to central mkt to look for some souvenirs on the way back to the monorail stn.
central market
next stop was sungei wang. planned to settle dad in a cafe while we shop ard coz the stuff there were mostly for youngsters but he insisted on tagging along so didnt really dare to shop ard alot coz he was pretty tired by the time we reach there n tink he was pretty bored waiting outside the shops for us. decided to call it a day early n tah bao the famous nando's chickens home for the rest.
unfortunately we had to catch a cab with a psychotic driver home. not only did he look retarded, throughout the whole journey, he was boasting abt how he taught the loan sharks to attack/sabotage pple who dun pay up. tink he was juz talking big coz he doesnt look smart enough. my cousin n i resorted to smsing each other in the back seat while my dad who was usually veri chatty with strangers kept pretty quiet ;p. we even asked the driver to drop us outside the estate near the guard house instead of driving us all the way to the house juz in case :P
day 5
last day in kl... 3rd aunt n her husband brought the whole lot of us out for brunch (yups, more of the famous hokkien mee, which we ate lotsa time during our stay in KL). since our bus was scheduled at 3pm, could really go anywhere else...
took this photo fr the car. batu cave and the huge indian god statue
bus journey hm was pretty nice coz we took the new executive/high class coaches home. wanted to take those with the "stewardesses" but bro couldnt find that particular company at pudu raya so took another company's. the ticks were alot cheaper in m'sia coz u pay ard the same price but in ringgit. we board fr opp times sq which was nice compared to the chaotic pudu raya. seats were all fully extendable n each of us had a mini tv with music/movies option. managed to catch 1 and half movie (didnt hv time for the other half). proz and conz of hving tv. dun hv to watch those horrid thousand yr old movies they normally show but less time for sleep ;p. the air con was also way too cold even for me also ;)
little tv monitor watching movies control panel on the arm of the seat wat i bought... veri little rite ;p
