Trip to Sarawak - Day 2

day 2: Kuching + way to Miri
9th January 2008

On the second day to Kuching, we departed from the hotel at around 730am for breakfast. It's Sarawak Laksa.. Yummy... and i drank peppermint tea. Then, we went to Sarawak Cultural Village. Reached there at about 11am. The admission is only RM 15 for students. So, next time if you were to go, remember to bring your student ID along. it happens that there'll be a cultural show at 11.30am, so we went into the hall to watch the show. Towards the end of the show, Pei Xian got caught to go on stage. She was asked to blow the pipe to hit a balloon.

After the show, we went into the villages there.

By the time we finish visiting the houses, it's already 3pm. We are all hungry but luckily we bough some bread. Then, we went to the beach but they closed it and we cant stay there for long. So, we decided to go to Santubong's water fall. By the time we reached the waterfall, it's already 430pm. We couldn't play much with the water there. But it was still very nice as the water is clear and cold... The scenery was fantastic although we did not reach the top. But never mind, I'm sure next time we'll go there well equipped to go to the summit :) To those who wore slippers throughout the journey, good job.... :p

We reached hotel around 7pm. Only Jia Feng and me bathed because we will move to miri tonite by bus whilst the rest go by plane. Only both of us are poor :( After got ready, we went for dinner at a place near bus stand. It's a hawker centre, with lots of food. Finally, we get to eat kolok mee... Ah bee loves it so much.. that he cant stop praising it throughout the journey... Besides kolok mee, we ordered Cendol, Mentahon, and White Lady (which Ah bee pronounce as white lely), zhu chap (not very nice), satay (pork and chicken). After the dinner, Ah Jian sent me and Jia Feng to the bus station. We waited till 9pm then board on the bus. it's a 14 hours journey to Miri.
It shows how tired i was


When we move as one, we leave as one, we share the joy and the pain, the laughter and the tears
