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!

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.
