Splendid Sabah - Part 1

Pwincess had the chance to tag along dear hubby on his work trip to Sabah this time, and what a right time, it was indeed, after what i've been through this semester. Nway, the trip was from 23rd - 30th May and we stayed at Le Meridien KK for 4 nights, Kiram's Village Kundasang for 1 night, Aristo Hotel Kundasang-Ranau for 1 night and Alamesra for 1 night.

Day 1 : 23rd May 2011


There are a number of accommodations in KK, and luckily Encik Mon's company placed kitaorang at Le Meridien for this trip. I would recommend Le Meridien (if money is not a constraint) because i find Le Meridien is the most convenient, pasal dia lah yang paling dekat dengan semua mak nenek pasar .. tak payah susah-susah nak cari cab atau menapak jauh. facilities pun tip top. service pun great.


This is our room ... preferred guest lagik ... haha pandai la bodek yer ... if you stay at Le meridien, here's my tip : mintak duduk di tingkat tinggi .. saujana sket pemandangan

ample space for you to skip and run (!)

the washroom

toiletries

they provide almost everything, including umbrella

After settling our things, we went to run some errands for my ma: there were a few bracelets that needed adjustments and then, it was dinner time. so kitaorang pun terus makan ikan bakar and udang kat pasar malam sinsuran tu. aduhhh ... puas sudah kemaruk pwincess nak makan latok fresh .. haha .. best giler tau latok ni .. dia meletup-letup dlm mulut gitu .. cicah sambal .. sedap! penah tgk satu documentary ni pasal okinawa, okinawans kan umurr panjang gile ... they claim that amalan makan sea grapes ni antara rahsia umur panjang mereka laa ... haa ... kena ada kajian laa umur penduduk rakyat negeri sabah pulak pasni .. hehe .. just joking! nway, bile dah sudah tu ... kitaorang balik otel, tengok nora elena pastu encik mon kena study pasal keje dia sket ... (ye ke study .. hihi)

ikan jenahak bakar rm25
latok rm2
udang 2 ekor rm10

Day 2: 24th May 2011

Encik Mon came back from work earlier since the officer that he was supposed to work together with was on medical leave, so we decided to visit one of the islands. I thought of visiting other islands this time around since I had visited Pulau Sapi back in 2006, maybe Manukan or Mamutik since I read many good reviews about them but many people (pakcik cab, orang hotel, orang kaunter jetty) recommended us to go to Pulau Sapi.

we hailed a cab and went to Jesselton Point Jetty, the cost was about rm15.

kos untuk sorang :
1 pulau: rm17 (2 pulau : rm27, 3 pulau : rm37, 4 pulau : rm47)

terminal fee (tax) : rm7.20
entrance fee : rm3.00 (bayar bila sampai di pulau)

mask & snorkeling : rm10

life jacket : rm10

yang mana satu idaman kalbu, harga lebih kurang jek ..

ready, set, go!

it was a weekday and not a school holiday so the island was ours!

one happy snorkeller

Balik tu, kitaorang makan lobster and ikan merah bakar and of course, latok and rumpai laut kat pasar malam ... the lobster's size was large and the price was rm130, can you get that in KL? puas ati oo beb.


Day 3 : 25th May 2011

Well .. we walked around the area, snapped some pictures at the KK Esplanade, and then, i wanted to try out 1 restaurant that I read from a blog. katanye sedap makanan kat situ ... harga sangat reasonable ... sampai family dia berulang kali makan kat situ ... kitaorang pun berjalan laa g situ ... nama restoran tu ... Restoran Malindo ... Encik Mon was skeptical about this, "Malindo," he asked. "makanan padang ke? " mmm well ... the blogger didnt mention anything specifically but katanye very recommendable, so lets try out. agak jauh sket la dari our hotel ... and dari jauh kelihatan seperti restoran makanan campur, so pwincess tanak ... g sabah nak makan seafood ajek (action ehh...hehe).


Balik semula ke hotel. tengok Nora Elena sampai abes then, menapak balik ke pasar malam sinsuran ... that night we ate sotong bakar and ketam. lepas makan pulak, jalan-jalan around pasar malam dan pasar basah. murah-murah you barang-barang kat sini. sayur-sayur kat sini ... alah murahnye....avocado ... sekilo rm6.00 ... kat sini, sebiji dah 4.99 ! kalau special deal, dapat la kot rm1.99 tapi then, size dia kecik jek.

Day 4 : 26th May 2011

This was our last day in KK before we depart to Kundasang the next day. kali ni, kita jalan di bahagian hadapan le meridien (area sinsuran). kat sini ada banyak deretan kedai wholesale macam gamba kat bawah ni.


Tapi pwincess nak pegi showroom Jamilah. kat pasar Filipina ada 7 booth Jamilah. kalau kat pasar, limited sket lah barangannya. nak banyak lagi, sila lah ye ke showroom. ingatkan ada satu je, rupe-rupenye ada 2 showroom Jamilah. yang satu tu, kecik sket, dia jual kebanyakannya crystal dan benda murah-murah sket. yang bertentangan dengan dia, besar dan 2 tingkat. tingkat atas jual handicraft meanwhile ground floor divided into 2 parts. 1 part untuk swarovski crystal, satu lagi untuk pearls. memang bling-bling aaaa. harga pun bling-bling gak laa, hahaha.

crystal mania

choices of pearls - this one is air tawar so a bit cheaper

boleh beli camnih pastu mintak depa buatkan
