holiday nov2011 01

By
We had an 'explorace' holiday last November 2011. Our flight to Kuala Terengganu (KL transit) was on 25 Nov. Arrived at night, an we went straight to YT Midtown Hotel. A strategically located hotel and I consider it as budget hotel. Paying RM120 for a RM150 sized room! Its definitely not a boutique hotel or spa resort. But cozy enough to rest and sleep. No weird smell or sound.

The small pic of my son was on the plane. The Floating Mosque (i think its called Masjid Tunku Zaharah or something like that..), located at Tanjung Ibai. Its rainy day so we decided to just sightseeing from the car (rented car with very good deal!)

Then we went to see Masjid Putih, as the local called it. Passing by the White Mosque (Masjid Putih), the driver took us to the Fishery Department Port. A visit only a few lucky people like us could get! The driver is like the president of fishermen's union or something.. So we get to see the real boat and ships used to fish! Its not like we never saw any, its just that the feel is totally different watching them docking at the port.. (Sentimental huh.. ) The background picture below is the White Mosque.

Doing some songket & kain pelikat shopping on the way to Noor Arfa Batik.

Here's Noor Arfa Batik. My 1st time here, but 2nd for my parents.
Rumours said batik cloth here are pricey, expensive. Now that Im here, seeing with my own eyes.. I can understand the reason. A 4 meter batik cloth cost around RM250 to RM350 (some may exceed this price), because there's only ONE design like that. Meaning? EXCLUSIVELY MADE!  you buy it, then its exclusively made for you! I ended up spending handsome money too, but luckily its Year End Sale (Y.E.S) season!


Then off to Crystal Mosque (Masjid Kristal) located at Wan Man Island (Pulau Wan Man).

Then we catch up a bus to Kelantan. Its Friday so almost all shop are closed.. But still we manage to shop for Keropok Ikan (fish crackers), Asam Manis (Sweet tamarind), some tudung for me, etc, etc..

Went back to Kuala Terengganu later that day..

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...
