world trip 2! (day1)

after crossing out so many exciting destinations, we fell to this option. it fit our time and budget perfectly. our second world trip destination is malaysia! ahha!

it's great that we could meet up again. and it's the real point of making 'world trip', to make a little time just for ourselves, catching up with each other and just have fun. that is not easy to do in today's world.

but, i made a big stupid mistake by not charging my cellphone on my arrival day, which made chan and pak had difficult time finding me. luckily it's only lcct :p chan's parents picked me up and drove us home safely. thanks and sorry aunty and uncle!

our first hit the next morning was bagan lalang. it's a family beach, i guess. we didn't really prepare ourselves coming to the beach. my tips for future reference for anyone who wanna go there are bring your family as many as you can (coz the more, the merrier!), bring food and mat, and don't forget to bring hats or sun block (very important!).

what day is today? it's malaysian's independence day! :)
sort of a 'must' pic on beach a declaration that we've been here :ptugs of war (fun game to play on beach) :)chan was forced to take every shell that pak saw :p
in indonesia, we have this mitos that if we gush our breath toward the shell, it eventually will come out. but when we tried, it didn't work. chan thought that i fooled her. perhaps only indonesia shells do that.
we saw this family (dad, mom and son) was busy looking for shells. but this mom definitely took my attentiontoward afternoon, we saw many stands selling windmills and kites. i didn't have chance to shoot the kites ;(
sepang gold coastwe waited for minutes to get visitor pass to enter the resort. it's worth waiting.
my dream pic, yatta! (should practice more though)
toward the lunch time, we headed to a very famous restaurant around the area. and the problem with a very famous restaurant is there are lots of tables and hungry mouths to be served. so it takes lots of time. after waiting for few minutes, we went to another place to eat. we could see several people whom we also met at previous restaurant. the result was the same, we waited so long...

finally the food came! bon appetite :)seafood and a glass of beer, what else could i ask for more?
recharged after taking lunch, we went to the famous love/ couple bridge. what can you see there? of course, couples, lots of them. making me jealous? hmm... a bit. actually i wanted to see some dead fish on the bridge, but couldn't find one :p i think the biggest question is "what's there at the end of the bridge? a pot of love? a magic love wand? love powder? cupid? lover claim station?"

NOPE! the answer was a fisherman! (enjoying his time fishing and ignoring every lovey dovey things going on around him. so proud of him!we reached the love/ coupld bridge! look at our hair! like these :)
throwing all of the lovey dovey behind, we went to this mushroom house. you can see many mushrooms and mushroom products you've never ever imagined. love their drink products.

i love this mushroom. they look like a dorayaki, don't they?
