i did not stay in amy's place 4 the whole journey.. reason:-
- i'm oneself.. go there, awkward le...
- somemore my fren is a gurl.. i'm guy.. imagine.. haha.. (eh, dun imagine so much eh)
- n aso, stay in ppl's hse so long. aso paiseh la...
So i went 2 kch the on the 22th... alone... haha...
bus from cbu 2 kch needs arounf 7hrs
(7hrs n u're still in the same state.. haha)... rm40...
when i reach the terminal, i need 2 go 2 tune hotel.. which is jus behind the hilton hotel near kuching waterfront..
i couldn't find where is the bus terminal in the map.. so i have 2 sit the taxi which is... RM 22... mad!!!
4 those who sit plane 2 kch, u can sit the tune hotel shuttle which is jus rm9.99 from airport 2 the hotel...
tune hotel was nice, no tv, got aircond, nice toilet.. nice bed.. haha it's jus rm60 in total.. i did not request 4 the aircond.. u need 2 add rm10 i think.. if u go 2person then it's cheap la, coz it's a queen size bed..
toilet is without lock.. haha, n it's glass door, if u go wif a gurl, mayb u need 2 go out of the room when they bath.. lolz...
bus from cbu was 7am, reach kch around 3like tat, 3something reach tune hotel.. then jus jalan jalan in kch city.. the east side of kch.. nothing much, jus monument of cats n nice sceneries, n of coz the river.. haha
this is in front of tun jugah n sarawak plaza shopping complex.. jus near tune hotel onli..
2 cross the river from the kch waterfront, it's rm0.50... it's cheap lo, but,,, i was afraid.. haha.. i sat on it n went 2 the other side.. n i did not 1 2 come back.. coz of the boat..
i was jus phobia.. haha... but, the onli way 2 go back 2 the other side is jus the boat... no choice.. have 2 sit aso.. haha opp the kch waterfront is the fort magarita..
i did not went there, coz i jus found out bout it after i came back from there.. in the jetty i meet a nice malay woman.. chat a little... nice lady.. btw, sarawak ppl all quite helpful... i'll continue this hospitality friendliness later.. haha
cats..
i missed this 1.. it's actually a cruise, evening cruise, rm60.. i did not have time 2 go 4 this.. u can get a night view of dunno where n where from the boat.. which is nice.. i saw some nice nightview of kch, but i couldn't get 1.. sob sob..
this is fort magarita aso, but it's in kch waterfront, not the opp 1.. it seems james/charles brooke built this 4 the wife or something.. at the background is a hall... DUN hall i think.. this photo i did not group as a best shot.. coz i think it's a little overexposed!..(was hazy aso tat time...) n aso, there's rubbish in the front there u c... beside the door..
but, somehow, it was a "NEARLY" a best shot, coz, the reflection of the water u c.. it has quite an element in it...
even in kch, there's stone carving... (it's history, the story where a mousedeer trick the crocodile 2 cross the river)
i was to go santubong the next dae, so i've 2 find the transport there.. this is where sawarak hospitality continues... i walked around there 2 find n find... i asked... 3person there... 1 uncle jogging there n i jus stop him by... he talk talk talk.. nice guy.. i got the info of where 2 get the van 2 go santubong.. i told him thanks, he says no need thanx.. (in chinese it will b nicer.. haha)
then i walk n found out tat i couldn't find.. i jus walk n walk n i saw indian street... haha, 4 ur humble info, there's no indian in kch, even in cbu.. not at all!!!! walked inside the street n found mostly iban n malay ppl opening stalls...of coz, kek lapis, the famous ones...
then i found the kereta sewa (van), it's run by the government, on the van is written bus persiaran n it's written what zone n all n which place 2 go etc.. it's fairly cheap when u have a group, basically u rent the whole van.. as i'm alone, i did not 1, coz it's expensive. then the drivers directed me back 2 kch waterfront for another shuttle van service 2santubong.. they told me "u noe the most colourful building?" yes of coz, there's onli 1 colourful tall building in kch... 4 those who r visiting kch n goin santubong, dun call the taxi, taxi mayb 40 n 40 through n flow,
i'm anti anti anti anti anti taxi actually...
find the shuttle van beside this particular building, n it's infront of singgahsana lodge... get the ticket from the lodge, (in front of the lodge there's a banner saying shuttle from kch 2 damai n santubong...) it's jus rm10 onli 1way..
n yes.. my transport 2 santubong 2moro is settled!@!!!
continued my tour in kch ct...
i put the left photo s my best shot s well... hmmm.. izit nice? abit of adjustments n u can get 2 different picture..
y best? u can c the colour, it's like very old.. n hmm, i dunno how 2 say n explain.. enjoy urself.. haha
oh btw, it's tua pek kong temple...
then i visited the chinese museum.. didn't quite like tat uncle in the museum.. coz he's so racist.. he says, coz u're chinese i let u snap photo.. omg!!! wat la..
my dae ends here in kch... at nite, i didn't dare 2 go out.. haha, was afraid...
end of day 1...
