Invasion

Back KL from the last trip was full of trips and falls on Hari Raya. Went to mr Calvin's house for ketupat and rendang the moment i touch down thanks for the ride back home too.When mr Calvin is around it will be a busy period with all the outings and catching up.

Part 1 
1 Day Trip to iPoh.
Journey started off early in the morning at 6am cause need to park my car some place to be pick up.Rush down to iPoh for dim sum breakfast.

                  Dim sum at Yoke Fook Moon,pack with people during public holiday especially those KL and Selangor people!

 Overprice Egg tart at some coffee shop.

      Salty Chicky outsold KFC chicken.

 Funny Mountain Soya with Drive-thru and the bean curd is awesome smooth

 This biscuit shop full of tension with its biscuit sold out at 11am.

 Very busy coffee shop and the sotong kangkung taste weird

 
 Visit a few cave..

 there's a monastery in the middle of the cave opening.

 off to Kampar for Chicken Curry Bun and this restaurant with chandelier selling chicken curry bun impressive!

 used to be this size.

but stil this the best.

Part 2
3 days trip to Penang with Dim Sum stop at iPoh.I know i've been visiting Penang quite frequent this year alone 3 times but we have a guide Yong Jun from Butterworth this time so it will be a lil' different.

 Ming Court Dim Sum for this round.Taste good with all the lil dim sum(compare to Foh San is like McEgg and Big Mac)

 Paradise Sandy Beach from suite balcony.I wish that my room window has this view

 Char Kuey Teow getting pricier each trip rm8 thats a set of McValue.

 the banana fritter from this stall with the banana over ripe.

 the cendol is too watery and the business is too good rm1.80*10 bowls/minute,i'll leave the calculation to you!

 even have an outlet just less than 100 meter from the original stall.

 Komtar not sure if there still shop inside

 Kuan Yin at Kek Lok Si still under construction 

 Laksa at Air Itam.quality drop.

 i want one Cove unit.

the red hat char kuey teow at lorong selamat not much crowd after the Star publication

ferry still busy as usual at least an hour wait for a ride

Mengkuang Dam at Bukit Mertajam with people taking wedding photo there.i thought it only happen in Vietnam.

still can't understand why!if the sign wasn't there it will be empty!

extra nice sunset

fruit lok lok special but the hygiene level a bit low cause everyone double dip at the sauce 

Hokkien Mee or Prawn Mee in Penang so the KL one will be Fried Dark Hokkien Mee 

Old style toast minus the toaster plus the charcoal

 the bridge that connect from the pier to the ferry has broken off!spotted a number of reporter and engineer busy fixing.

Hiong Kong

Hong Kong was the most exciting trip ever that i've been looking forward to. Spending around 8 days for this trip that covers Shenzhen and Macau 1-2 days each.

The things i miss the most about Hong Kong is the FOOD,seriously its a food Heaven almost every corner of the city you can find food and most of it is good but then we try to hunt for the best among the best.

Turn out our trip to be a bit rush that according to my friend as if we not coming back to Hong Kong anymore. Start most of our day around 8 am and ends at 1-2 am everyday is like we're in a race. Try to cover as many place as possible and stuff in as many food as possible but think of it ,we didn't had enough!

So this post will be short and simple.

Hong Kong
impressive international airport

spacious taxi better than the younger Proton Iswara!

nice organized transport

most of the building are a bit old due to the high cost of rebuilding.

human traffic is 24-7

they just don't sleep!(taken at 1am)

the signature billboard

What's good about the public transportation in Hong Kong is that its always on time no matter what. Buses is clean,the subway is wow! compare to those of PUTRA is heaven and earth.Now it looks like I'm from Hong Kong!


bamboo scaffold still wonder how they did it.

morning "yumcha" turns the coffee shop into a battlefield!

taxi are everywhere just like the TVB drama.

The Peak,high end housing estate.

A shot from Avenue of Stars on New Year's Eve.(high rise on the financial district)

Hong Kong International Airport from Ngong Ping Cable Car

Lantau Island famous Buddha

i always wanted to visit ,its small thou.

we got lucky

most of the profit came from this SHOP,everything is so tempting it makes you want to bring the whole shop back. Don't fall for it!

Cute Panda at Ocean Park, they ate non stop!

Glowing Red jellyfish at Ocean Park Jelly Aquarium

the Tram is slow but its fun(board from the rear and pay as you drop off).If you're in a hurry take MTR.
