.030608. KK Trip Day 5-6 @ Labuan

*remember this scene?? LOL.. where i left off*

Woooot~ Back to my long lost but not forgotten KK Trip post!! Hehehe... I'm finally here to the last day of my trip though. Or maybe the 2nd last and the last.

Final destination was none other than Labuan!!

*land of duty freeeeeessss*

*arrival hall at labuan jetty*

*this is what you get in islands!!*

*temptations you can't resist coz itz cheaper than your mineral water*

Land of seafood and land of duty free!! There's nothing much you can do in duty free islands like langkawi or labuan!! So what we do?? You guyz figure it out!!

More Fun At The Beach...

.010608. KK Trip Day 4 Pt 3 @ Manukan Beach

Short-Note: Anyone going for "Cat Got Your Tongue #3" @ Heritage Mansion tonight?? See you people there at 10.00pm!! Remember to bring your TOY!! haha..

More adventure, water sports @ Manukan Beach. Next up was parasailing and it was my first time again. Usually I thought banana boats and parasailing was like by the beach side. But not in Sabah coz both of the rides was in the middle of the sea (not literally though) haha..

But it was fun!! I partnered Daniel to balance up the weight but still managed to spoil the rolling motor!! ahahha... =D aiyoman with kweiyee and jyhyian with seowwei!! It's really cool being hung up there looking across the ocean and feeling the breeze hitting gently against your face and the best part is of course when they lowered us down and drag us against the sea water.

Here's the fun i meant...

*so tired after the banana boat ride... seriously, it's tiring*

*tiredness doesn't stop me from more fun!!

*weeeeee!!! lets go!!!*

*yeahooo!!! it'z so cool, so nice up there!!*

*omg!! shark!! plz dun come!!*

Went back to the beach after a really cool parasailing experience and it was really really hot that day!! Thought of snokerling though but we saw this lady kena ATTACKED BY JELLYFISH!! So, we decided to just sit by the beach, under the shade and rest ourselves. I went around to shoot some photos but didn't get to take any nice ones. *sadzzz*

*too tired to go snokerling d*

*trying something new*

*so sien wan??? balik lorzz....*

*photo from vic's camera, just before we left for KK jetty*

*say bye to manukan beach*

*hahaha... guess where im heading next???*

After fun at the beach, we went back to our hotel rooms clean up and makan seafood. (too bad the photos not nice... dowan to show) And the next day (020608) 5 of us parted ways with the rest and we headed somewhere else... Any wild guess?? =D

Fun At Manukan Beach!!

.010608. KK Trip Day 4 Pt 3 @ Manukan Beach

Made of Honour done and I was deciding again on Manukan Beach vs Gasoline, Lookout Point!! Hahaha.. Too much photos from KK Trip already so i better update some first. And so, we were off to Manukan Beach which is just 15 minutes away from Mamutik Beach. Manukan Beach is supposingly famous for the longest beach. There were many people there and the amount of JELLYFISH!! is just as much!! haha =D

So, we didnt snokerl but ventured into some WaterSports!! Jon, our negotiator, talked to the "fella" and managed to get good price for both Banana Boat ride and also ParaSailing. Believe it or not it was my first experience in both sports!! And it was really really expensive!!

Anyway, let the fun begin!!

*reached manukan beach @ +- 12.30pm?*

*thank God for the good good weather!!*

*something caught chungsik's aka aiyoman attention*

*OMG!! I didnt know banana boat in the middle of the sea wan!!*

*don care la!! die die la!! just do it!!*

*and we were off!!! weeeeee... damn nice kan?*

*omg!! got shark!!! how????*

*once again!! the water damn crystal clear lo!!*

*curi this go snokerl can?*

*more fun and exciting action coming up!!*

Guess what's coming up next??? more fun and more food!! =D

Short-Note: Cat Got Your Tongue #3 tomorrow @ Heritage Mansion. Happening at 10pm onwards!! See you people there!! =D

Goodbye Mamutik Beach!

.010608. KK Trip Day 4 Pt 2, Leaving Mamutik Beach

Short-Note: Will be going to Lookout Point tonight for some small gathering dinner!! Anyone going there tonight?? See ya there!! =D

Here are some random photos from Mamutik Beach. Didn't take any photos of us doing snokerling though coz none of our camera is waterproof!! haha.. It was super hot that day and all of us was attacked by baby jellyfish during our snokerl. There's this wierd pink fish who also attacked some of us on the head!! haha.. damn funny..

But the experience of snokerling was pretty cool and great!! Hoping to take up diving soon. Anyone wanna join me?? =D Pulau Sipadan should be one of the best spot in the world for diving kan??

Well, here are my random photos from Mamutik Beach...

*sifu took this photo for us, sher n me*

*can't believe my eye seeing this!! didn't know manutd sponsored sabah boats too!*

*and of course, my favourite pose!! =p*

*time to leave our first beach and head to the next one*

And so, after a fun time snokerling, it was time to move on to the next beach!! There I personally had more fun!! I was told the next beach we were going has the longest beach or something like that.

*malukan beach!! here i come!!*

More fun coming up...

Mount Kinabalu Climb Begins....

.300508. Mount Kinabalu Climbing Day 1

Alright... Celebrations aside and back to my KK Expedition. And so, the day has finally arrived!! It was the 2nd day of my trip and we woke up at about 3.30am in the morning and left our backpackers hotel at about 4am to Mesilau (The longer route to Laban Rata, midway to the peak). We stopped by at Kundasang for a short while coz the drivers were hungry and the rest of us shared cups of Milo. Once again we asked ourselves, "are we seriously ready for the climb???"

*took this photo on my way to Mesilau, nice kan?*

We reached Mesilau at about 7.30am and after collecting our passes and a short briefing from our guides, we then started "the climb of our life" at about 8.00am. Just as excited as we were, we started off well and shouted along our way up but it lasted only for like the first 100 metres and then beyond the fades of our shouts, we can then only hear the sound of the nature and also our fast-paced breath. We were so excited when we reached the first signboard written "0.5km". I was like WTH?? and OMG!! We walked for so long and it's only 500 metres from the starting point. From then on, we knew that it was not going to be easy. It's going to be a hard, tough and difficult.

*just reached Mesilau, super excited + happy + full of energy*

*it was a bright and sunny day, Praise the Lord*

*the girls LOOKED ready*

*the guyz ARE ready!!

*take nothing but photographs, leave nothing but footprints*

*let the journey begin!!*

*YES!!! KM 0.5 liao!!*

*so fast tired d and sapu'ing YOKO-YOKO*

*somewhere along the way we found this bridge!*

*OMG!! How many more of this???? It's like never ending wan!!*

We were told that the Mesilau route offers an awesome view @ KM 5 and we were so desperate to reach there as soon as possible. At KM 3, believe me, we were like half dead. haha.. When we finally reached KM 5, I tell you, every single step and drops of sweat is just so worth it!! The view was simply awesome and fantastic!! Even my photos can tell how awesome it is except if you go and witness it yourself!!

*Woooo!! Finally at KM 5!!*

*damn nice view kan?*

*background view @ KM 5*

*i told myself..... long way more... 3 KM lagi*

Another 3 KM to go and I brace myself all the way and finally I reached this place called Laban Rata together with Daniel at about 5.00pm. We were so super tired and super hungry and the best part was my guide has not arrived and the registeration staff told me that I cannot register first. Worst still, I cannot eat the food yet that lay in the restaurant before my eyes!! OMG.. I told Daniel, "Let's get some crackers or biscuit"!! I was shocked when the lady cashier told me that one can of Mister Potato cost RM 15 and a bottle of 1.5L mineral water cost RM 10. I told Daniel I rather die starving then. haha...

*view from laban rata a.k.a midhill*

*it was 9.3 degree celcius that evening*

*banyak orang jugak that day!*

*omg!!! Fooooooodddd!!*

*kesian daniel la... our casualty =p*

Finally I got to eat at about 5.30pm when my guide reached together with a few of my friends and without mercy, we attached the buffet bar!! =D Ate as if we haven't eaten for days!! The view was splendid and after snapping a few photos I couldn't help myself but to get changed and then wait for the rest to reach. Unfortunately Daniel suffered a minor leg cramp and KweiYee a.k.a dailou had a high fever that day. We took good care of KweiYee then before going to sleep and we had to have enough rest before waking up at 1.30am the next morning to continue our climb to the PEAK!!

*paradise??*

*am i not dreaming?? am i?*

And so...... The best has yet to come!! Next will be my journey to the TOP!!! Mount Kinabalu's PEAK!!!!
