June 2008: Tanjong Lobang Beach, Miri Sarawak

By
Me, mom and dad went to Bintulu (Sarawak) in June 2008. Actually it was my travel-for-work but my parents don’t want me to go by myself. Arriving around 10am, then at 2pm we were on our way back to Sibu (Sarawak, not Pulau Sibu and not even Cebu Phillipines). But at a junction with a signboard to Miri, my dad prompt a bonus question, “Anybody want to go Miri?” We’ll be there around 5pm , my mom replies, “Dont ask me, ask her” (pointing at me). Oik silap besar! Of course I said, “Let’s go!!!”. There we were, with no extra clothes, no brush and all necessary things! Sa-helai dan Sa-pinggang…
There are 2 roads leading to Miri, the old one (longer and takes more time) and the new one we refer to as ‘jalan pesisir’ which is faster than the other one. So dad used the new road so that next time if I were to travel by myself for work I wont get lost..
You can go by air, either using MAS, Airasia or Maswings (if youre from Borneo Island). Im not sure about travelling by sea, never heard of it..
On our way, my parents decided to go to Kuala Sibuti, I was raised here until 2 years old. I can’t remember anything about the place.
From Drop Box
After 3hours, we arrived and went straight to a hotel. The Dynasty Hotel. For RM170+- we get a very good room. My dad, terus menyampaikan hajat yang dah lama terpendam.. iaitu, melabur amanah saham after a few ammonium-based ‘blasts’ at us. Located not far from the Pujut Highway, a few minutes drive to Shopping Complex and about 15 minutes to the Tanjong Lobang Beach.
We managed to go to the beach that evening to watch the sunset..
From Drop Box
What can you expect to see in Miri?
In the city itself, of course Shopping Complex. Kalau aku, yang ni kurang minat la kot.. Sebab boleh jumpa kat mana-mana. Selain dari tu, Tg Lobang Beach. My fav spot is the jetty. Again.. Here you can see para-gliding.
Me hubby prefer exploring Miri. Go to Lutong, the oil town. You can see the old hospital site, or Petronas area. Or go to Pujut, find the biggest shopping complex in Miri (i think) the e-mart. Or go few miles further, to the Asian Bridge. The one that you have to cross if you want to go to Brunei.
Read another entry soon, about our (me n hubby) trip to Miri for honeymoon.

Oktober 2008: The Orient Star Resort, Lumut, Perak

By
Gambar-gambar ni semua dah lama disimpan dalam laptop. Kalaulah gambar-gambar ni macam makanan, dah tumbuh kulat ngan cendawan lama dah! Nak ambik la kesempatan, disebabkan TV kat rumah pun dah rosak dekat seminggu.. Koleksi CD/DVD kat rumah pun dah abis aku tengok... (termasuklah Changeling, aku suka la panggil Changelina Jolie... yang dah lebih 4 bulan dalam simpanan tapi tak pernah sekali tengok.. huhu). Jadi blog ni umpama terapi untuk aku memandangkan hidup aku memang selalunya depan TV. kan.. (Mangsa penjajahan teknologi). This hotel isnt far away from the town. It's on the way to the TLDM Lumut camp. Ikut hala TLDM, bila lepas roundabout, baru nak naik sikit je kat bukit tu jumpa la hotel ni belah kanan.. From Drop Box Was there, at Orient Star Resort October 2008 to attend a meeting. As for the room rates, I'm not sure since everything was paid by the BIG "G" BOSS. View from the room was just nice (compared to my stay at Terengganu recently), but i...
