kuching trip

End of last year 2008 we went to kuching, Sarawak, Borneo Island, Malaysia. Family vacation jek.. dalam 10 orang.. so sewa 2 keta. Since we went during school holiday, harga tiket n hotel kira peak rate la. Lagi satu peak season tak silap aku masa World Rainforest Music Festival, Airasia n MAS harga sama jek, so amik MAS, dalam rm380+ per person, Kat airport terus beli map kuching

sungai sarawak from top

touchdown airport around 10, tapi ade problem plak dengan rental car. lambat sangat amik rental car kat airport, and the price just different 20-30 hinggit jek. Rent for 2.5 days = rm330 (wira 1.5). Kalau nak keta ok skit amik Proton Gen2 (rm400 = 2.5 days), since keta sewa kalau Wira tau tau la.. takde pikap. Pastu terus pegi Kilang pastu kat jalan Penrissen (kalau tak silap) batu 4 kot, situ mmg banyak kilang pasu, rambang mata.. murah2. And also dorang akan packed pasu tu utk kita terus utk luggage/cargo

Pasu2 dalam kedai..cheap and cantik2


View from Crown Plaza riverview hotel level 18 executive floor. Standard room semua habis, terpaksa amik executive room Rm250 per night (dapat special rate). The hotel is nice, and also connected to the Parson Grand shopping Mall, and very near to the Waterfront. 1 things i dislike is the parking, no dedicated parking for hotel guest, have to share ngan shoppers..susah time weekend.
Dinner time, pegi makan kat Top Spot foodcourt. Very near to the hotel and Waterfront, tanya orang diorang tau la.. kira foodcourt tu atas car park 6 tingkat. Mostly here chinese seafood. Ada 1-2 kedai ngan halal msia, so kitorang try kat situ, seafood.. mmg sedap :)


Lapar tunggu makanan. 1 round table can accomodate up to 10 ppl gak.


2nd day, went to Sarawak cultrural village santubong, drive sendiri jek, no need tourist guide. Singgah jap kat damai beach resort, buffet lunch and beli tiket kat sini dapat discount rm5


No idea where to go when in Kuching? read the banner


Arrive at Sarawak cultural village, aku beli sumpit, then masuk Bidayuh house, terus dorang bagi Welcome dance :)

Kegiatan menenun, tanya makcik ni berapa lama nak siap ni.. dia kata 6 bulan!!!


Makcik ni jual kuih dalam rumah, and we can buy here also, kira Cultural village ni is like a living museum la, dorang tinggal kat situ jugak


At Iban longhouse. Can rent costume for children

Orang Ulu Longhouse. Cantik


Last sekali. Tengok cultrural performance. free for visitors


Back from Santubong, went to the shops (Main bazaar?) infront of the Kuching Waterfront



Kat depan shops tu banyak jual KEK lapis sarawak. Pilih la mana2 sama jek harga, 1 kek = rm10, colourful n sedap :)

Inside one of the shops.. pilih2 murah2.. TAPI, pasu jangan beli sini, mahal..3-4 kali ganda dari Ceramic factory yang few minutes away jek.. so pegi sana kalau cari pasu.



3rd day, went to the other side of the river by car, tak naik river cruise pun. Pegi beli Kek Lapis yg terkenal, Kek Lapis Dayang Salhah. Tu siap rumah dia convert jadi kedai/kilang

Nak tau lebih email kat dia..website pun ada tu. Lagi satu kat sini diorang akan packing kat jugak terus dalam kotak utk luggage. Perencah laksa sarawak pun ada, aku beli 2


After that, singgah Museum in kuching town, Cat museum tak sempat pegi. So pegi museum Etnology. cant take pic inside. so outside only la


Hari dah petang, singgah pasar SATOK, beli ikan masin, tak sempat amik gamba.. busy makan. After that makan Mee Kolok and also Laksa Sarawak.. kat mana2 ada makanan ni. Leh tahan sedap. Pastu to the airport.. Bitte gurte waehrend des sitzens geschlossen halten and Balik.. puas hati
