anyway,i managed to get a gateaway to Teranggan & Kelantan,Malaysia during the CNY holidays.woohoooo:D
first day(friday):
-the tour bus depart on 9pm at bedok.then stop by at clementi to pick up other tour members before continuing our journey to Johor checkpoint.
-reached Johor checkpoint at 12am and changed bus to continue our journey to Terangganu.
-had a toilet break and rest in between of journeys as the journey is 12 hours long.
-reached Kuala Terangganu at 9am!
second day(saturday):
-had breakfast of rice with chicken at some shop.
-started off with our journey to Noor Arfa Batik boutique.Terangganu were well known for their batiks which were of good quality.the things were expensive and so we only bought keychain, butterfly dress(use during sleep time) and a shawl.
-then,proceed to Taman Tamadun Islam and the Crystal Mosque.went to take pictures and explore the magnificient Crystal mosque.then went inside the Taman Tamadun Islam,RM25,to visit and take pictures of the 21 great Islamic Monuments.
-went to have our lunch at the Taman Tamadun Islam & i have to wait for 45 minutes just to get our food.as a result,we delayed the tour bus by 30 minutes.
-lastly,visited the Pasar Payang,which is somewhat similar to Pasar Geylang.there were very tight competition between the owners as there were quite a few shops selling the same items. Mom bought 2 butterfly dress,a dress used during sleep time,turtle eggs and 3 sets of the washing utensils,2 kain batik for neneks,5 packets of crackers,2 turtle plushie dolls and also a bird that will sound when theres noise,specially for Erfan who loves birds~
-check-in at Hotel YT Midtown located at Jalan Tok Lam, 20100 Kuala Terengganu.although its only a 2 star hotel,i find the room bigger than Hong Kong hotel and also the service was good!had a shower after the whole day being outside and baaam! went to sleep till next morning.didn't manage to join the other dinner:(
third day(sunday):
-had breakfast at the Midtown cafe around 8am and the food served was delicious.Drink orange juice and ate fried rice,sausages and fruits.
-at 9am,went to lobby to go to Kota Bahru,Kelantan.had a jam to enter there and as a result, had to wait for 6 hours before entering there.luckily watched the movie Santau to keep me awake;)
-went to Rantau Panjang first,a place which is similar as Chinatown with shophouses.as we hadn't had our lunch,we decided to eat first at a shop nearby.decided not to eat as not that hungry yet for i had eaten some light beverages in the bus.but i was damn THIRSTY!after that mom and some other aunties went to do their prayers at the surau located across the food shop.
-decided to went back to our tour bus as it was time to go other places but then the driver have not reached yet.so i and mom went to buy keychains for only RM8 a dozen.
-depart from there at 5.30pm and as some people had not pray,they decided to stop by at a newly open mosque which had a Chinese design.while they were praying,we took photos of the mosque.
-after that,went to Nordin Batik to see the things they sell.it is similar as the Noor Arfa Batik,just that from different country and hence different design and quality.mom bought a keris keychain for her Zapin Robik coach and also kain batik for her ustazah.
-we end our long trip of the day by going to Pantai Cahaya Bulan.we initially wanted to look at the nice view of the beach but since we reached during night time,we had our dinner there instead.i ate seafood fried rice and drink Ice Milo.the food and drink there were salty and sweet!
mom said that we could get hypertension and diabetes after eating there:)
-depart from there at around 10pm and reached our hotel at 1am.slept during the whole journey back.finish up maths hw while watching tv and slept at 3am.
fourth day(monday):
-had our breakfast a lil bit late that day,at 8.30 am,as everybody were tired from the long journey yesterday.had orange juice again with mee goreng!
-check out from the hotel at 9am and waited for the driver to arrive to send us back to Singapore
-board the bus at 9.30am.went again to the Crystal Mosque as there were some people who didn't have the time last time to visit it.had 15 minutes over there.
-we then had our lunch at Kuantan where finally,i get to eat a delicious rice with prawns and drumsticks.
-started our journey back to Singapore and had some entertainment inside the bus.Riddles, Movie and Karaoke were some of the things we did in the bus.they started off with some of them karaoke-ing while we at the back becoming backup singers.after a few rounds of karaoke,we watch the movie Pisau Cukur while most of the others were sleeping.After a few minutes,i also went to LALA-land with them.
-had stops in between and buy some snacks and drinks to eat in the bus.they decided to go to visit the shop where they sell cakes at Kulai,Johor but it was already 10pm when we reached Johor and so we cancelled that plan and went to have dinner at Machap instead.there,mom went to pray first and we walked around there.there were not much food left and so i bought a Burger Ramly with CHEWING GUMS to be brought home:DDDD
-after boarding the bus,they open the Wali band karaoke and the driver realised that there were another screen at the middle for the back passanger to see clearly.after 3 days,only now he told us while we had to force our eyes all this while to see from far to watch the movies and karaoke-ing.and so they sing along while i just enjoyed the songs.the uncle at the back disturbed me,asking me where my voice and force me to sing.in the end,i ended up sleeping instead.by the time i woke up,it was already 11.30 pm and we just reached Johor checkpoint.luckily for us there were no other tour bus and so we had a fast time there.
-reached Singapore checkpoint at 12am and we had to carry all our heavy luggages for check.and my chewing gums are safe from being taken away from them.we then carry on our journey to Clementi first.reached there at 12.30am and bid goodbye to cik mimah and family & cik sanah. as most of the passengers went down at Clementi,there were little of us left and so i take a seat,adjusted my seat till the back and slept till reaching Bedok.brother took us back home at 1.30 am and when we reached home,most of the them were sleeping expect for the cute erfan. spend some time with him and played the computer before sleeping!
