Hurray! Time for updates on the second day hehe…
At first, even though we did plan to go to the foothill of Mt. Kinabalu, we eventually lazed around in the morning and only got around to leaving the house at around 11 something for some brunch. Where I was taken, I had no idea but I was in for a really good meal that I’m missing so much right now!
I had no idea even Sabah had Mee Kolok haha and apparently, this one is pretty famous in KK. The texture of the mee was just perfect and springy all over, coupled with some ‘Char Siew and Siew Yoke’ (and extras from Kelvin since he doesn’t like ‘Siew Yoke’), it was nom nom heaven in the east side of Malaysia.
Also to top it off, it was a norm in KK to have beer for breakfast in which my initial reaction was WTF??
Ok fine, it did not contain any beer in it. In fact, the coffeeshop actually reuses the beer bottles to store coffee in the fridge which was pure genius if I might say so because as far as I’m concerned, I love my coffee cold and chilled to perfection. Just plain ice coffee doesn’t cut it out for me anymore wtf. Well, at least it answered my question of why the beer bottles in the fridge were all opened when I first stepped into the coffeeshop haha!
On the way back to the car, we noticed a shop that openly has pool tables in it with old people playing and watching like it was some world pool championship tournament but from what I can guess, its looks more like some weekend activity for the people here. Kind of like the karaoke sessions the Malaccans have every weekend at night at Jonker Street. Very cool and interesting hehe.
A pretty chilling day ahead with a walk in a couple of malls just to see how life is like there.
In to Warisan Square Shopping Mall we go and it was a cool concept, blending in with the western culture of having open air shopping malls with the eastern blend of decorations in it. Just opposite of it was the sea, so some fresh sea air left us feeling really peaceful and serene……… not! It really wasn’t much of a difference compared to KL where there were loads of cars and I’ve no idea why, somehow the cars there rolls out even more smoke than the cars in KL, or was it just me hmmmmm…
Staying indoors was the best decision we made that day, and not only that, I discovered that the toilets are extremely cute where it is a combination of both the squatting and sitting toilet. Unfortunately, I can has no piktah cause I had a business to attend to in the loo wtf!
However, a visit to the closest beach not too far from where we stayed and also the airport. Not to mention, it was actually more uplifting than the city. Remind me again why we chose to go to the city hahaha! The sky had a perfect blend of colors and the sea was calm yet rough in its own way, and I feel like I’m getting a bit too weird with my words here lol!
Well, photos does me justice eh hehe!
People were there enjoying the beach, and you definitely can smell the salt there. Heck, or even taste it! Just open your mouth wide open, facing the sea direction and I’m sure salt will form in your mouth and fyi, I totally did not do that! We took quite some time there while setting up our tripods to try and take the sunset but since it was pretty cloudy, therefore no sunset for us boo.
But we were kind of rewarded with the perfect sky to end the night of our second day.
I just somehow had to put this in here.
Don’t ask me what it is, where it is or whatever the reason this is for but it seems that the owner of this house was a bit off and that he made this just for the fun of it. It’s not even some prayer thing lol, in fact I almost thought that it was some kind of grave haha! For the first time, I’m seeing some really cool artwork replacing the usual plants and greenery that decorates a person’s house front.
I’m thinking of doing the same for my house, shall I? LOL!
