KK Trip Part 1

I got back from KK yesterday evening. As of now, melepek..tak tahu la sbb penat ke sbb in denial kena masuk keje balik :)

Kita start dari mula la ye. Pagi2 nak pegi airport tu pun dah drama, I left my luggage keys at my parents and Ayah had to make a U-turn and it was 2 hours before departure time. Time tu fed highway mmg jammed sbb org dah start gi keje (7am). So, bila patah balik ke KLIA, mmg Ayah tekannnn minyak kereta :P. We had breakfast at the airport and board the plane and arrived at noon. SIL was already waiting with our rental car and we drove to our homestay in Menggatal. The house was quite spacious and hubby and me got the king size bed :). Water heater ada in both bathrooms and aircond in all the three rooms. Washing machine pun ada.


So, lepas freshen up, we went to UMS as my SIL need to attend the rehearsal and after that, we took a tour in UMS. Luas betul, and yang paling best bleh nampak laut. We then went to KK town, jalan2 kat night market and then had our dinner belakang pasar Filipina tu. Tak sangka terjumpa my ex-colleague there, rupanya dia pun attending his BIL's convocation with his whole family. Meriah.

Second day, as planned, we went out early for Island hopping. Memang early la, sbb kat Sabah kan Subuh dia 5am, 6am tu dah cerah dah. We had breakfast at Jesselton Point food court, bleh tahan sedap. Makanan macam Semenanjung je. I love the view at the jetty, cantik sgt, perasan macam kat London kejap :)


Our boat depart at 8.00am. It was a bit windy and so, I was a bit terrified. Aku tengok PIL dgn Zul rileks je tapi tu la, aku ni mmg gayat dgn tempat tinggi dan laut2 ni, so kena understand la aku punya fear ye dok? We are supposed to go to Mamutik, Manukan and Sapi Island and the plan is to go to the furthest island dulu tapi sbb cuaca dan ombak dah ganas sgt, we all berhenti kat Mamutik dulu. Tak tau nak describe camner feeling bila dah turun dari jetty Mamutik tu, sgt breathtaking the view. The pictures I posted here doesn't do justice to the real scene. Bukan camera DLSR pun..and ada yg aku ambik dgn handphone, which aku tersalah setting and hence, lagi pecah2 gambar dia..redha jekla.

Lepas Mamutik, Manukan. Manukan is very spacious, and facility dia mmg hebat dan luas la. And the fact that we started our journey early, jadi org belum ramai lagik la, lagipun we all pegi Friday, which is a working day. Hubby and SIL had a jolly good time snorkeling, so as my MIL. Aku layan mandi masa pulau ketiga je, Sapi. Sapi for me is too crowded, maybe sbb dah tengahari and orang pun dah ramai. Lagipun island dia tak seluas Mamutik and Manukan. Leka sekejap bila tengok keindahan pulau, rasa cam nak duduk sini selamanya je *berangan*

Balik dari pulau, masuk KK town lagi. Masuk pasar Filipina, beli2 barang yg org kirim. Then singgah shopping mall 1Borneo, abiskan masa sbb nak dinner kat Tanjung Aru beach.

Ok Tanjung Aru ni aku kena warn sket la for first timer ye. Disebabkan seafood kat Sabah mmg murah (the first day dinner pun murah kat belakang pasar Filipina tu), we all made a mistake sbb tak timbang and tanya harga..just main tunjuk je nak ikan apa. Aku pilih ikan besar 2, sotong 3 ekor yg panjang, kailan, tomyam dua mangkuk, telur dadar, nasi dan air utk 6 orang and total jadik RM192. I was so pissed off sbb harga sotong tu total Rm62! Zul pegi tanya baper kg tapi aku rasa dah takde guna sbb diaorg mmg bleh belasah je cakap baper kilo (it's RM5 per 100 gram) sbb benda tu dah dipotong. Memang jauh beza harga dgn makan kat pasar padahal sama je gerai standard, bukan restaurant mahal pun. So careful sket eh korang.

Kitaorg balik dgn hati yg bengkak tapi tak guna nak dwell sgt, anggap bukan rezeki jeklah. Ok, untuk entry hari ketiga dan ke empat in the next entry eh.

Che Na - Ha ah kat pasar philippine. Tu lah I won't recommend Tg Aru unless betul2 tanya harga and willing to pay la. Aku suka kalau kerapu masak steam, or masak pedas gitu, ada kuah la kiranya. Macam pasar tu, semua bakar tu yg saja nak rasa yg masak punya kat Tg Aru. Terkena den. Masa aku sampai ari tu Manukan macam dah ramai sket dari Mamutik but still ok, still ada private area..macam Sapi aku rimas sbb ramai, tempat kecik and ada massive BBQ time tu utk tourist japanese..berasap2..
