Last Week In Pictures (and Words)

Been away, if you noticed.

Went jalan-jalan cari pasal all around Peninsular, too bad didn’t have the chance to visit the folks in Sarawak. Miss you guys much.

A weekend in Kuantan. Lunch was a patin affair and dinner was the traditional nasik hidang. Had a good time observing 4 ang mos dining who ended up paying RM150 ++ at the local gerai. Gosh, they might as well book a table at the nearest SwissGarden. Really.

Ran into faisal in TC for two years in a row. Hahha. A little awkward there cause I couldn’t exactly kick his shin like I used to do in Ukraine with my mak and ayah hanging around.

From the beach, we drove home for a quick wardrobe change and up we went the Banjaran Titiwangsa towards the scenic Cameron Highland. It was aeons ago since my last trip (the last one being when I tuang the Chemistry class in UTP for a weekend hideaway with my brother and wife in 2002). I consider myself to be a pretty tough traveller cause I’ve handled narrow perahu in Rejang River, Camel trophy ride in Lawas, small Fokker in Miri, but when it comes to driving up the Cameron range, sumpah I won’t want to undergo it again unless it is strictly necessary. I’ve never gotten carsick before but surprise surprise, other than leaving my cap tangan and cap bontot in Cameron, I didn’t forget to leave my stomach content there. Eek.

Double-chin glory in the nursery.

A week being stationary at home, last week we climbed up Genting Highlands pulak. Got schooled by my brothers on Bowling 101, karaoke-ing with the same bunch to the likes of May (Meniti Suratan), Pesta Muda-Mudi, Gadis Bertudung Putih, Aris Ariwatan’s, bla bla. It was like crashing a kenduri kahwin’s band. 😀

We were so psyched to go on all the rides, siap makan pizza pun sorang dua keping JE to avoid any unpleasant indigestion (ie: muntah :D), tengok-tengok mother earth was smirking down on us when it drizzled all afternoon. Sedih. But yesh, hujan itu rahmat. The green-house effect which Genting suffered for quite awhile now was replaced by a blanket of mist and cold air. Best!

We were pretty bummed cause tak dapat naik Solero but it’s okay, with a trip down Genting ridges in  Bang Meir’s pajero pun it was enough to keep us reeling and clutching the seat for our dear lives. 😀

I’m going back to Ukraine terchinta tomorrow.
I wish you all well.
And if I fail to update sooner, Selamat Menyambut Bulan Ramadhan.
God bless 🙂
