KK - The Philippines Part 2

23 March 2007. Waiting anxiously for our flight to Clark City, Phillippines. We were supposed to catch our flight at around 1.45pm but due to bad weather our flight was delayed till 7pm++.


But the time we arrived in Clark, it was already 9.36p.m and we're not at our destination yet. We boarded a coach to bring us to Manila which took us about 2 hours ride. Then, have to get another 2 more taxis to bring us to our hotel which took us about 30 minutes.

This was the first interesting thing to see during our bus ride to Manila. Even the toll is the better than ours here in Kuching. Apart from the toll, there's jeepney, traffic, people and more traffic even it was already late at night.


We checked into our hotel (Executive Plaza Hotel) right in the heart of Malate in Manila at midnight. So, the whole day gone just like that.

Pangkalan Sapi

Pangkalan Sapi is just situated along Sarawak River overlooking Kuching Waterfront. A few days back after a hard day at work, I've decided to go there to relax my mind and since I brought my camera along, might as well lar. I took a few shots.

It was a fine evening and the weather is just right for photography.

Didn't know that it's quite relaxing here as well. A good place to unwind. :)

Damai Outing

Went to Damai a few weeks back with Ya Lee, Chris and Adrian. Doing nothing really, just that I had the feeling of wanting to go the beach and relax plus a little bit of photography as well. Most of the photos were just simply point and shoot. It was raining a little bit some more.

Fun with handphone camera

I had nothing better to do last Saturday so I took these photos with my camera phone.

Say cheese and peace~

I took my mum's spec opened my eyes for 2 secs and shot! I think my eyes is a bit juling here.

Hah! Putting cucumber eye mask which I bought from Cosway. Cool! Hahahaha..siaw cha boh! ~

KK - The Philippines Part 1

22-27 March 2007, days that I would never forget. That was the day I had a short trip KK, Sabah and the following day to the Philippines. Both places are totally new to me. In KK, we only managed to go to nearby area such as The Filipino Market and Centre Point which is just directly opposite our hotel (Allson Genesis).

Filipino Market

We had this not so nice encounter at the Filipino market when one of my collegueas actually being taunted for not buying a keychain. This is what we heard as we were leaving the place " Kalau tak nak beli, janganlah minta nak tengok" ("If you don't intend to buy, then don't asked for it"). Wah lao eh, so rude! I'm sure one day the owner would go bankrup soon with this kind of attitude.

This is the view from our hotel room

Joyce's uncle was able to bring us around the town area in the evening and he bought us over to a place called Salut to have seafood. Yummy!

Lakeside view at Salut

Nothing much going on the first day at KK coz is not our target. So, basically, we just jalan-jalan (walking around) and wash our eyes, er..I meant window shopping.
