Holiday Villa Cherating, Pahang

the room we got were very spacious.
besar gila. got 1 king size bed. its actually can fit 2 king size bed.
the kids start complaining why Ayah wasted money paying for 2 rooms, as we can actually just stay in one room.

Relaxing yg sakit kepala

Just came back from Port Dickson.
Relaxing time selepas habis pantang n sebelum start keja. Relax la sangat kan kalo bercuti ngan budak 4 org. Tak kisah la.

We stayed at Bayu Beach Resort. TOok the Family Premium Room.

Quite surprised with the room actually .. Plus a bit happy as it was quite spacious.
Masa amend reservation (initially booked Family Deluxe). I ask utk upgrade to minimum 2 room package. Tapi sebab last minute sangat buat amendment, the travel agent cakap they only have Family Premium left. When I asked the lady what's the difference then. She was not quite sure. Hmmmm. Just confirmed that the room is bigger. Ok lah.

Sekali dah masuk room. Waaaah. It has 2 separate bedroom (kind of) with 2 single bed each. Living room jadi separate la. Nice. Takde lah serabut mata ngan budak2 dok kehulu kehilir tengok tv, belek itu belek ini kan.
The only not so suitable for faily with toddler was the second room kat tingkat atas. Masak! With spiral case some more! Double masak!
Kecut perut mak eh ngan bebudak ni dok asyik turun naik tangga spiral tuh dek kejakunan.

Overall, bleh la nak relaxkan diri ngan keadaan bilik camtu.
The hotel pun memang next to the beach. Quite nice view.

we went to Bandung last school holiday

peerghh...BEST.. though takde la shopping sakan sebab kami pegi utk holiday ajo. bawak duit sikit. memang dah bajet siap2 tak mau overspent (terbabas gak last2 dalam 200 ribu rupiah...ahahah..tu pun sebab sblom balik singgah kedai kek)

as i said. kami tak shopping sakan. itinerary:

Jumaat
KLIA - Jakarta by KLM
bermalam kat Alia Cikini, Jakarta (hotel 2 bintang ajo)

Sabtu
pagi berlepas ke Bandung melalui jalan kampung through Puncak, Bogor.

Tgh hari sampai Safari Park - Puncak, Bogor. ---yg ni jem gilo! jalan nak masuk situ bukak selang 1-2 jam! dah la kami gi weekend. sib baik lepas gak.
tapi sungguh berbaloi.. bas masuk lam Safari Park. Animal berkeliaran begitu saja. org yg masuk

Jogjakarta seems to be a nice clean city. minus the smell of horses in some place of course. mode of transport for tourist is 'beca' and horse carriage. we only try riding the horse carriage once as we could not stand the smell.
We mostly took 'beca'. we are suppose to be exercising while shopping (carrying all the bags and purchase items). but then... with the 'beca' service...suddenly came sooo lazy. as it is rather cheap compared to what will happen to our hands carrying the heavy begs. their charges varried..some asked for 5000 rupiah, 10000rupiah...depends on the distance of journey.

since we ride in two..plus hour shopping bags we normally paid more laa.. kesian wooooooooo..penat orang tu kayuh beca.

the funny things is.. Kota Bharu also got 'beca' but how come i never ride one? humm..must try la latter on.

On Monday morning we went to this Istana Keraton..apparently jogja still have their King and he still leave in the istana. The public have access to certain area only such as their ceremony hall. We went there at 8am then found out it only open from 9.30am.
isk.. couldn't wait that long ..still got lots of shopping to do as we have to check out of the hotel @ 12pm and travel back to Solo.
sooooo
in the end i only snap this one lousy photo in front of the palace entrance.

riding back to Jln Malioboro.. with beca of course.
in Jogja n solo.. every 4 junction road have a monument. as u can see in the photo.

is it another palace?
NOOOOOO
its a bank la!

arrived at our destination
Beringharjo Market!
shopping time

mosque beside the market

inside the market.
forgot to snap whole market interior

then at 1pm we depart to Solo. but stop first for lunch ..nasi padang..

arrived in Solo at 3.45pm and was inform by the hotel potter that the Klewer market closed @ 4pm. Darn. previously some one else inform us it is closed at 6pm.
we plan to rehat first. but with the news. apa lagi.. trus lock hotel room and took a beca ride to the market.

pengayuh beca tu selamba je jalan ikut one way street. IN OPPOSITE DIRECTION!
kita org dok asik menjerit je (menjerit slow2 laa)
mana taknya.. motor laju2 dok datang ke arah kami...
pehtu dia org belok nak elak kami
zaaaaaaaaaaaaaaas

huhuhuh..terasa angin laju2 tu.
nak kata horror ride tak jugak
seronok ada la..hehehehe
apparently kalo naik beca jadi cam raja jalan la weh. tak de sapa marah..dia org bagi jalan ada laaaa

ok. tu aja experience. kalo tanya setiap sorang yg join travel ni..for sure dia org jawab ni la

SERONOK NAIK BECA

best nya kalo bleh naik beca dari Masjid Jamek ke Jalan TAR :)

Trip to Solo n Jogjakarta

I went to Jogjakarta on Sunday (27 July) and came back here on the 29th.


we flew with Airasia from LCCT to Solo airport and from there to Jogja by coach.


The trip was intended for shopping only but we did drop by at Candi Borubudur and track back to jogja city. as the travel agent mention that we will be staying at 2 * hotel we were quite surprised finding out that the hotel is not bad at all. very comfortable indeed. except for food. the hotel served java food for dinner n breakfast. not my taste.
