Ye la, sape tak suka kalau tiket murah yang amat, hotel dah sah2 75% diskaun, tu pun potong gaji. Tinggal duit nak belanja je la, kan ?
Tengkiu ApiTerbang for the cheap tix !!
Beli awal gila tiket sampai mcm ingat-ingat lupa bila date nak pegi.
Before check-in Magellan, sapedek dulu, Hannah tumpang tido kat stroller Rayyan, so I gotta sling Rayyan on me
Tujuan asal beli tiket is nak jalan-jalan and bawak mak Man pi rumah adik dia kat KK sinun. But Allah has His own plan devised for us. Paksu passed away 2 weeks after we bought the ticket and on the day we landed in KK, Maksu is back in Taiping. My SIL's hubby plak kena outstation kat China.
Memang dah decide awal2 nak skip trip to Gunung sbb baru je pegi x sampai 1 year pun. Lagipun I don't think my in-laws are fit for that kind of journey. Berliku-liku bukit bukau.
1 day spent in town, lepak Magellan. Malam keluar makan dekat Tg Aru but we missed the musical fountain show sebab makan adalah lebih penting hahaha
Ready for wet agenda, the rest stay kat hotel sampai check-out. Aku lost kenapa Hannah x happy sbb tgh kontrol perut
The highlight of our KK trip this time around :
ISLAND HOPPING !!! (which was purposely cut-off from our earlier trip)
We opted for 2 islands only, sedar diri heret anak 3 org. Yang penting bleh berendam. Sempat hola cik Ikan tanya pendapat. So Sapi and Manukan on top of our list. We spent more time in Manukan which I think is more seshuai untuk piknik and lepak maybe because of its size and facilities. Banyak picnic benches provided.
Ada org excited naik speed boat, aku dah pening sbb boat melompat2 kena lambung
Jeti kat Pulau Sapi
See how far I was from the kids, mak tak tahan panas nyah, dah la mak memang spesis hitam manis...bg alasan pantai x lawa tapi betul apa.
Water baby, super happy super horray jumpa beach
Kejadian ngeri, our boat (yg kt belakang tu) mati enjin kat tgh2 laut & kena oleng2 dgn ombak for at least 10min in between Sapi & Manukan. Aku dah siap floatkan waterproof bag aku. Ketaq woi sebab bila boat senget dah nak cecah muka air dah.
Berendam sampai legam !! Kalau korang nak pegi make sure bawak bekal banyak2 sbb lepas berendam memang kelaparan yang amat and food sold on the island x best not to mention mahai nak mamfoss.
Manusia2 kelaparan balik dari pulau, g jumpa bestpren BIL yg jadi store manager NasikLemakAntarabangsa kat SuriaSabah. Apa yang unik kat sini ? Lauk dia ala2 restoran Thai bukan lagi franchise nasik lemak biasa. Sedap mamat Siam tu masak !!
Nexus is haven and the room is huuuuuuge but 1 thing which I don't like, they charged us for extra bed unlike Magellan. The bed cost me more than the room !! And the rooms were a bit to far from the beach and cafe so we end up wasted our time waiting for buggy to fetch us everytime. We can request it because we have senior citizen and baby in our group. Kalau takde pandai2 la kome menapak ye..xde nak layan fetch bagai...we spent 2 nights here.
Sape la awek gemok baju ijau tuh ?
Lepas solat Jumaat panjat ke View Point yang macam takde benda nak di view. Dunia..lihatlah lenganku setarap drumstick gayanya, lipatan perut tak b'jaya dicover sbb henbeg kurang besar. Maafkanlah aku yang masih tidak comfortable with my own body. Lepas ni aku dah berazam akan pose tanpa rasa mahu menyorokkan apa2.
Lepas tu turun dan menapak melihat clock tower, just to make sure we covered all historical places and must visit places. Adan insisted on going there after I told him about the tower. I made sure they read the history as well. Sama-sama belajar coz I oso donno what the heck it represented or signify.
Mat Rayyan si bam bam gebu, anak sedare aku
Bersama mummynya yang kuruih
Just before sunset, sempat lagi aku merayau menembak sorang-sorang
Aci tak tempah pasu cenggini utk umah sendirik ?
Santai-santai di Nexus, as planned
Bagi budak-budak join xtvt kat situ rm50/person for batik painting, bicycle and wet xtvt. I negotiated that I dont want to do wet xtvt coz we're checking out in few hours, managed to get extra frames for batik painting so Hannah and moi can paint as well. Yay!!
Menyorok di belakang anak menjadikan anda kelihatan sedikit kecil dan tiada lipatan perut dpt dikesan
While the kids round2 naik beskal, babah fought hard to win the game against an Aussie boy. Babah won..phew seb baik, kalau tak malu sbb segala mak pak pakcik makcik dia duk tengok. Yang paling
celaka best ayat last sedare dia 'oh i thought you're 1 of the resort's staff'. Hello..ingat we can't afford to stay in Nexus ka ? Dah sah2 laki aku pakai casual, bukan uniform. Kesimpulan, harus dress up lagi atau pakai sahaja sepender seperti mereka, baru nampak umpama seorang hotel guest.
BTW, here 'something' captured hiding behind wall at Nexus, I almost fainted bila terzoom ke situ tapi tangan laju je snap. Di siang hari ? Mmmm Nexus oh Nexus..kesian jantung ai tauuu...
Next trip (biar betul korang ni..nak pegi lagi ??) either fully spent at Manukan Resort while hubby go for dive or maybe lazying around in Nexus. Bliss.
