Day 1 : Kuching Trip (6th Nov 2009)

Assalammualaikum..

SARAWAK The Land of Horn Bill.

Depart from KLIA to Kuching International Airport by MH 2510.

Departure:

2009 nih mcm2 yg jd dlm idup aku..so utk b'day ke 26 thn ni aku hadiahkn diri sendri ngan Kuching Trip..haha a very Budget Trip! yet even though its a budget trip but i do enjoyed it so much..i guess not juz me..Rina must have enjoyed it!
hmm..mana nk start ek..well actually its our 1st experience nek flight..sounds funny kn? ye la 1st time nek Belon walaupn dh 26 thn idup..ahaks..but x kisah la kn..pape pn at least we dun look awkward n alien-like ms kt airport tu..despite being a first time air-traveler..sumenya sempoi jek..msing2 wat muka mcm tau jek..pdhal blur on what shud be done..sib baik ada Jess yg bg guidance on what to do..maklumlah Jess ni mmg la suka sgt travel (org kaya la katakn)..hehe..:)

Arrival:

So sumenya bjalan lancar la sampai la kami siap boarding n depart from KLIA to Kuching International Airport..ahaha as our MH2510 touched down at KIA..dpt jek arahan yg mbolehkn kami keluar dr plane tu...tau pe yg jd? kami blari2 mcari ladies..especially aku la..adehh x leh tahan...rs x selesa lak nk mlepaskn hajat kt lam plane tu..akhirnya lepas dpt jek jumpa ladies fuhh lega siot!!! rs mcm dpt RM sejuta..muahahaha..pastu leh lak Syah call tanya kt ne..haha sbb lama sgt nk lepas dr imigresen tu kot..dia lak nmpk kami blari2 kuar dr gate 5..haha..pdhal x tau kami sdg blumba2 mcari ladies..hmm pastu g le wat urusan imigresen..so dpt le Visa ke Sarawak yg mbolehkn kami berada di Swk utk 90 days start dr tarikh kami masuk..hmm x sangka kn lam M'sia pn kne b'Visa ceni kn...hmm maybe it takes few more yrs to change tis practice..or perhaps it would never change..anyway whatever it is, Swk is a great place to see d uniqueness of M'sia apart from d typical Peninsular M'sia..pastu sibuk lak p amik baggage..yg paling penting nk kne make sure keselamatan brg yg Syah kirim tu (Extractor Saga BLM)..haha cian si Syah lama nunggu kami yg tgedik2 nk loadkn brg2 tu atas trolley..sib bek de Syah yg sudi nk kutip (bhs yg Syah sering gunakn yg bmksd fetch/amik) kami bdua ni..well Syah is actually a new fren yg i kenal dlm komuniti PROSBOC..Syah = Sarawakian yg berkahwin ngan Gadis Pahang..n menetap di Samarahan yg x jauh dr Kuching..((mmg terasa sgt2 beruntung mgenali kwn2 baru lam PROSBOC ni..tats y kalo de org tanya pe faedah yg aku dpt..mmg siap la aku mulakn syarahan aku..bla bla bla..rsnya mcm2 yg aku nk btau psl k'baikan join komuniti ceni..))..so Syah pn fetch kami ke hotel tmpt kami bakal menginap..

Tune Hotel

Check-in accommodation:

Utk trip kali ni, aku decide nk try Tune Hotel(TH) yg terletak betul2 depan Hilton Hotel..haha tp tu bkn sbb utama nape aku nk stay kt TH ni..d main reason is bcoz TH nih dekat benar ngan WaterFront..haha mmg sesuai la ngan Rina yg minat gila shopping nih..hehe..sng skit nk beli pape souvenir n apa2 yg patut...*.*..hmm pas jek check-in utk bilik kami n Syah..kitorg pn p le bilik msg2..huhu nk berehat sat b4 next xtvt (sume xtvt Syah yg rancang sbb hes our Gorgeous Tour Guide) haha..

Stopped at Tabuan Jaya for Syah's banking matters.
