Trip to Sabah Day 5

By

03062010
Destination: Manukan Island, 1Borneo Shopping Complex, Karambunai Beach, and Sepanggar Bay.

Manukan Island
Parked our car behind a shop lot then we walk to Jesselton Point. The jetty that connects KK with west coast islands including Labuan FT. 
Some prep to make: 
  • buy some food.
  • bring along swimming suit (in my case? short pant & t-shirt)
  • bring a mat or more (depends on what u plan to do..)
  • if u have ur own set of snorkeling things/life jacket, bring it along. or just rent it here, its quite cheap.
  • women, bring your sunscreen lotion! i get really bad sun burn for not wearing any. or just come early in the morning so that you dont have to worry about it.


Mr Husband really loves historical pictures, so he captured these.. Old Jesselton Wharf, now known as Jesselton Point/ Jesselton Jetty.

My officemate and family was there too.. We went in the same boat. Hehe. And their boy (Darwisy) sit in between me and husband. So cute!



Darwisy keeps on saying 'boat mama! boat!' right when he saw a boat and even when we were inside one. hehehe.. cute little boy!


the water, emerald green. its 10am so you cant see the top of Kinabalu anymore.. arriving 1030am. feeling as though im in a huge aquarium looking at those fishes below my feet. i cannot imagine what Sipadan look like, because this island is just heaven as it looks.




We went to the best spot, of course hubby hate crowded place. So our 'station' is in front of chalets. busy swimming and snorkeling (me? no. cant swim. i just grasping for more air, while trying to overcome my trauma (drown when i was 9) and holding onto his shoulder while he took me below the jetty to play with fish.- coz there's pillars everywhere that i can hold onto here, not bcoz of the fish. huhu).

Its 1.30pm, we almost missed our 2pm boat. hehe.. go clean ourselves and change.
1/2 hour later, we're back at Jesselton Point again. Had some ice cream, then to our next destination.


1Borneo Shopping Complex
Last time I was in KK, this shopping complex had its official grand opening. And me n friends get ourselves busy (in and out the main door just to get a few set of the doorgift. Hehe..

It was Kaamatan Week so there's still festive mood around. Of course, sales everywhere.
That notice attracts me. It's actually for shoes made of pig skin. Im puzzled when i read the notice said "Non-Halal, please do not touch!. There's misunderstanding of 'halal' concept there..Halal is for food status. Are the animals slaughtered according to Muslim rules? Does it contain any not allowed animals (include pig, any carnivores, poisonous animals and more). Pig of course not halal IF you eat it. But, WEARING it:: is HARAM! not non-halal... huhuhu.. Living in 1Malaysia but not sensitive to the Official Religion of the country huh..


Karambunai

After lunch at Chicken Rice Shop, we went straight to Karambunai. Around 5pm. To watch sunset. Arriving at Nexus Karambunai Resort. 5 star hotel maybe. not sure. But sure is beautiful place!


Sepanggar Bay
Last place to go, is Sepanggar Bay. Not far away.




I actually captured a pictures of navy base but got caught and ended up had to delete them.. huhu.. i didnt know we're not allowed to take pictures.. besides i dont see any 'no camera' sign..




around 8pm, we went back to KK again n go see Sinsuran night market (again)..

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...
