♡ Shopaholic's Weekend Getaway! ♡

We love beaches! ♡
Daddy drove us all the way from
Sandakan to Kota Kinabalu for
a weekend getaway few weeks ago.

It was a freaking 7 hours journey.
I'm so lazy to describe the details.
Let's let the photos & photo captions
do the talking, shall we!? ♡

Crystal clear water @ Sutera Harbour where we've spent our very first night there.

Sutera Harbour.

Pantai Dalit.

A gang of people playing beach volley ball.
I reckon' they don't really know each others,
but they are having heaps fun.

Spotted, Miss I with her phone while
daddy & bro playing the table tennis.

As usual, a lookbook photo of myself. :P

Happy family spending quality time at the beach.

The beach activity spot.

Bro & I preparing for para sailing.
Our very first time! :D

We are getting ready to take off.
Daddy help us with this shot with SLR.
Fuyoh!

High above the sky.
It was a very unforgettable moment.
The experience was great. I even saw a cute sea turtle.
OMG OMG!

You guys should try para sailing. I'm sure you won't regret it.
Although I've height phobia but I still enjoy the ride up the sky.
It's fun, you gotta trust me. :)

Time for a dip in the fresh sea water.

p/s: Kawan-kawan sumua, bila nak pigi Krabi, Thailand nih?
Kita pigi sama-sama, nak tak? 

When will be the next beach trip?

Cont' from part I. :)

Day 2

30th April 2010, Saturday.

 ╮(￣▽￣)╭

We went for Dim Sum as our breakfast.

Very vintage-y stools found at the Kopitiam.

My Adik busy checking out the settings, ready to snap, snap and snap! 

* nom nom nom *

(づ￣ ³￣)づ~~♡ 

After makan, we went to stroll along the streets and "morning markets".

And we got caught by the Paparazzi, thus this photo was produced.
\(≧ω≦)/

Photographed by my Adik.

Edited by me.
(～o￣▽￣)～o

Recently I've neglected my pro camera cuz it's so much 

easier capturing it with my iPhone and I can do 

instant editing and uploading. So much fun, but of cuz, 

we can't compare the quality of the photos produced by

 DSLR and a 5MP iPhone camera. 

Captured by my Adik.

I love this photo, I looked so happy! ♡ 

Teehee.
｡◕‿◕｡

Guess where is this place?
o(︶︿︶)o

It's Bukit Bendera @ Penang Hill! ♡ 
There were soooooo many people and the queue was so darn long.
Thank God we came early and the queue was still okay
and we got to know on that day, around 5000 people turned up.
So, yea, we're in the statistic according to The Star. LOL

Mumsy wanna squeeze into the pic too and we LOL hard and
we all looked soooo happy. ♡ HAHA.
╭ (￣▽￣)~*

Oh mai God, mama, look! It's the new train! ♡ 

Look at the huge amount of crowd waiting to board the train.

We boarded the tail of the train so that we can enjoy the "steepness"
when the train move towards the Penang Hill.
Can see from the my face, how "jakun" I looked like.
HAHA
◑﹏◐

The train moved really fast.
It took us around 10-15 mins to
reach the top and this was the
train's track.

Then my Adik ter-shoot this photo and I like it! ♡ 
●▽●

Spent almost 45 mins up there chillaxing.

Family photo, must haves!
Let's stare at my Tiang Elektrik punya Adik! :P
 (づ￣ ³￣)づ~~♡ 

Our little cute Disney bears!
#Duffy and #Shelliemay must haves photo!
Taken at Penang Hill too.
Looks like they are enjoying the company of each others.
Awwwww! ♡♡♡♡♡     
 (づ￣ ³￣)づ~~♡ 


What's next?
KEK LOK SI TEMPLE for sure!

Oh before that, we had this for lunch.
The famous Asam Laksa!!! ♡ 
\(￣< ￣)>

Superb huge statue of Kuan Yin. ♡ 

KEK LOK SI TEMPLE!!!

Next, Balik Pulau's Durian, Nut Meg Juice, Asam Laksa with Lemak.

Awesome to the bits. ♡ 
Nice texture, creamy and sweet!
Yums.
╮(￣▽￣)╭

We ♡heart♡ Durian!
Nom Nom Nom ♡ 
o(≧ω≦)o 

Asam Laksa again, after our lunch, 2-3 hours ago. =.=|||

Nut Meg juice, taste like fong yao (minyak kapak),
but it's good for health.

We went to 1st Avenue shopping mall in the evening
and I bumped into Shwu Fen, my coursemate.
What a coincidence! ♡ 

Stock up some Cotton On goodies there.
Miss that store a lots! TT_TT

Dinner at some random streets with lotsa hawkers
and ordered many food and burp, so full lah!

At night, we went to Hard Rock Hotel!
(No, we didn't stay there!)

Awesome lightings at the entrance of the hotel.

Plan to check out the Hard Rock Cafe but too bad,
my Tiang Elektrik Adik is not matured enough.
 ⊙▂⊙

We, in couple shirts from USS!

I don't feel good that night after tonnes of meals
taken. I had my gastric problem and I was suffering
with no further medication. Y_Y

Took a cup of hot milo at Mamak before
we went back to our hotel and I feel much better.

This is a 4 days 3 nights Vacation Diary Part I in Penang.

Packed this up before the travelling day! ♡
(No, I didn't bring Big Duffy along)

Day 1

29th April 2011, Friday

This is Sandakan Airport.
Gotta love the cool and colourful walls. ♡

I'm waiting patiently for the red plane to arrive and prayed
hard enough for no delays!
 \(≧ω≦)/

Pic credited to my bro. Zero edits.

1030am - 115pm 

Flew from Sandakan to LCCT.

We are siblings!
o(≧ω≦)o 

Boring long hours flight had me cam-whore myself all the way.
Teehee.

I even invited Shelliemay to join in the funs too.
How happy she is after so long didn't meet his boyfie, Duffy,
and is now going to meet him.
 (￣３￣)

Safety first!!!
As seen, Shelliemay and dear baggie were fasten with seat belts.

Approximately 445pm, the plane we took from LCCT
touched down at PNG's Airport.

The queue for cabs was uber long and 

we waited for almost 15-20 minutes 

to get a cab. Another 45 minutes taken to reach our hotel.

Penang has serious traffic jams! OMG!

After checking in the hotel,

we took our bath and off we went to Gurney Drive's food court

to get our stomach filled. All the food looks yummy and

we weren't sure which to have, so we ordered a little of everything!

◑﹏◐


Later, we walked to Gurney Plaza for shopping after makan 
since it's like next to the food court while waiting for Szen to join us.

Took this inside of the fitting room while waiting
bro to try on his shorts in another fitting room.
They have this fucking huge mirror so, I cam-whored.
(づ￣ ³￣)づ~~♡ 

Full body shot.
Mind you on the quality. 
Only 5MP, nothing much to expect, huh?
hehe.


Approximately 10pm +, Szen joined us and carried
us to have our supper - Nasi Beratur.

This is the answer to the name of the Restaurant.
You need to queue in order to get your food. 
Oh Am Gee! We queued for like 1 hour to get our food.
And to me it taste so so only, but they (Szen and my family) liked it.
╮(╯_╰)╭

This is it. 1 hour waiting and queuing time for 
2 plates of curry rice.


After that, we headed back to our hotel for a good rest.


To be continued.
