Kuching to Kudat by road

By
Our holiday May this year was to Sabah again, this time less talking more pictures..

Mind you! We manage to go and come back safely with the help of our friendly Uncle GoogleMap!

D1: Me and son fly from Kuching to Miri, meanwhile my spouse and mother in law travel Kuching to Miri by car (my fuel saving car hehehe). My mom, dad and my younger brother travel in a 4WD vehicle from Sibu to Miri. So we meet up at Miri.
D2: From Miri, me, my son joined mom, dad and my younger brother straight to Miri. Since I couldn't find green card copy of my car so husband and mother in law had to travel all the way from Miri to Kota Kinabalu by bus. Later we met at Kota Kinabalu.

Fascinating to me: the signboards in Brunei used Jawi.. Arabic letters. Vehicles were mostly imported ones. Malaysian car was there too, I think its considered as the cheapest car.. No offense.

Seria: perhaps its an oil town like Miri and Bintulu in Sarawak

Jerudong Park--Unfortunately, it was closed that day!

Stopping for meal. Nope, we're not spending any money. We bought food from home. Hehehe.. its a low budget holiday, afterall!

After 32 years, Im back here at Bandar Seri Begawan!

Then, proceed to Limbang. It was 5pm so we decided to have a stay here at Purnama Hotel at Limbang town. Had our dinner in the room, and breakfast at the coffee house.

D3: Limbang to KK.

On our way to Sabah of course! Not until you get through Temburong District!

There! Sabah is on the signboard now!


But not there yet! Cross Lawas first! Its a small town, serene one.

This is Sabah. The beautiful seashore @ Sipitang Sabah

Sipitang Esplanade

Beaufort Waterfront. Stopping for Lunch. We bought some food at Sipitang and cooked rice at hotel when we were in Limbang.

some landmarks that we manage to capture.

So we arrived at Kota Kinabalu safely, staying at The Palace Hotel for the night.
We rented a car from the airport.

D4: KK to Ranau. Stopping at Kundasang for some strawberry, but decided to buy them the next day.. We went to Poring Hot Spring later that day after checking in at a hotel not far away.


D5: Ranau - Kota Belud - Kudat - KK
View from the hotel we stayed was breathtaking. Beautiful nature. And our son slept well that night, no mosquitoes as we expected. Temperature was cool too!

Breakfast at Ranau town. Quick stop at Kundasang and went straight to Kota Belud.




Pondok Timpohon: Trail to peak of Kinabalu Mountain. You get to see the peak closer here early in the morning.

Kota Belud

Now to Tanjung Simpang Mengayau, Kudat

Here's the tip of borneo. Its my 2nd time here.



The sea corals, shells are sold by the roadside

 Lastly, that day we went to Kudat. Then head out straight to Kota Kinabalu.

D6: KK to Miri
D7: Miri to Sibu.
D8: Sibu to Kuching

will be there in Sabah again before this year ends!

Pic blogging?

By
Dah lama la sangat tak post apa2. Bersawang dah blog. Sibuk dengan kerja, bila free tgk drama online, bila banyaaaak free buat bisnes photobook. Sekarang sibuk pulak dengan persediaan semester jun 2015 politeknik. Ada-ada je lah kerja untuk mempoyo n menyibukkan diri. Tu yg blog pun mcm rumah puaka tak de penghuni.. masuk keluar masuk keluar tak update apa2 pun... Jadi aku buat keputusan nak buat mcm micro-blogging.. tapi pakai gambar dan sedikit caption.. Ini dia gambar pertama. .............. Terkejut tadi tengok apa benda yg melekat kat cermin penumpang belah belakang kereta. Bila tgk dalam, rupanya anak aku punya kerja. Semalam dpt sticker, dia bantai lekat kat dlm kereta.. tergelak sorang bila teringat. Anak aku yg sorang je tu dah 4thn umurnya. Dah dihantar ke sekolah supaya dia ada kawan bermain.. maklumlah.. anak sorang.. belum ada rezeki anak lagi satu...

June 2008: Tanjong Balau Beach, Desaru, Kota Tinggi, Johor Bahru.

By
During my stay at JB, I managed to go to Tg Balau Beach, Desaru. From Drop Box If youre driving, than it's cheaper compared to renting a car or something. Its more expensive by taxi. I think it took 2 hours drive, plus LOST since I couldnt remember the road.. dont blame it on me?! the road look different from last time, 2005. From JB to Kota Tinggi takes 1 n 1/2 hours considering all the traffic jam on the way out of the city. Then from Kota Tinggi to Desaru approx. 40 minutes. The road might be tricky, so watch for the word Desaru, then Tg Balau on the signboard coz they will definitely help you. Not much to look at during the drive.. expect for hugeeee palm plantations.. Tg Balau is a masterpiece. Facing the South China Sea, clear water, blue sea, and not too many people like in Desaru beach. The one that im showing you in the pic is on the other side of the beach, you can ask for direction to go to the 'jetty' they call it. Or if they dont understand just tell them '...

I was just trying my luck by applying for a place at a new office. I was shocked knowing that my application was approved and it actually turned me blank for a while. There's so much to do! I don't want to hurt my head with so much things to think about yet, so I've decided to just go with the flow... Ramadhan is approaching, Happy Fasting yea! I'll be breastfeeding and fasting for the first time this year. Not sure if I'm capable. Soon will upda...
