the whole night i was thinking about the fact that i didnt get to strike a pose with the cat statue. so told my parents, today die2 must ask cab driver to bring us to the cat statue. hehehehe...!!
had breakfast. discovered a new dish today. it's called laksa sarawak. and the noodle itself is called kolo mee. it a specialty in Sarawak. it was so nice!!! i love it. if only i wasnt full, i would have asked for another serving hehehehe...!! here it is!
left hotel around 10.30 and got into a cab. told cab driver we had a few places to go and he said he will drive us to all the places and be our personal driver hehehehe...!! yeay!
1st stop: CAT STATUE
yeayness!! got to strike a pose with it! i was told there were lots of cat statues in Kuching but the rest are not really easy to capture photos coz they are placed higher than ground. this one is just nice!
2nd stop: MASJID JAMEK
yesterday we saw the masjid from far while walking around the main bazaar. i like the fact that it's in pink. very nice right, pink masjid. and the domes are so shiny in gold. so told the cab driver that we wanna snap photos at the masjid.
3rd stop: PASAR SATOK
my auntie kirim-ed ikan terubuk masin and telur ikan terubuk masin. aku kat singapore jarang masuk pasar. kerana nak memenuhkan permintaan auntie aku, terpaksa masuk pasar dan menahan bau2an yang sungguh menusuk idong. ikan terubuk is another specialty in Sarawak. it's expensive - RM10 a piece. and the telur is more expensive! if you buy it alone, it's RM88. if you buy with the fish it's RM40. *faints*
4th stop: The Spring Shopping Centre
did a walkabout in this rather upbeat shopping centre. a bit like our shopping centres in Spore. this one is more modern with Starbucks, Secret Recipe, Mango, Esprit and a lot more shops in it.
we wanted to watch a new horror movie - MANTRA - in the cinema there. but the timing was quite late. we were expecting the delivery of the kek lapis-es that we ordered yesterday. so takut terlambat, we had to forego the plan. sayangnya, coz that night we watched the making of MANTRA on TV3 and it's an amazing story. upset!
and we also bought lunch. break rekod number 2: abba wanted to eat ARAB RICE! coz why? he saw a lamb shank in the pics and he is a huge fan of lamb. so our lunch was arab rice and we also bought chicken rice from the chicken rice shop. aton bought donuts.
rested and slept a bit. it was nearing 6 and the kek lapis is still not delivered. pretty scared coz we tot that the lady we ordered from might have run away with our RM200 deposit. lucky thing i got her phone number and i called her. she said her guy is sending down and he's on his way. i think it was at 6.30 that the doorbell rang and our kek lapis-es have arrived. ALHAMDULILLAH.
did a little packing up after that coz we had an early morning flight to catch. went down to the reception to do early check-out and pay whatever we had to pay. back to hotel room and slept.
see you all in day 4!
ilal liqaa'!
