The sunny Langkawi

here is the long overdue story on our langkawi trip this year.

My last trip was 3-4 yrs back. this time its  also Sofia first plane rides and we are using MAS. Hopefully more to come baby

I am so excited for this trip, maybe i miss my travelling moments with MAS when i used to worked with the hotel industry (i know i am one women that is kaki jalan)*grin*
And so we stayed at Holiday Villa Langkawi for their beach. Yes we are all a beach bummers

Oh man, Langkawi can be so freaking hot. Not to forget both my girls had this 'kepala panas'. Sofia was soaking in sweat. and me too, sigh 
(ok enough of complaining just enjoyed the trip)

in our itinerary was

Day 1- due to  'miscommunication' incident about our booking, we only managed to be in the room at merely 4pm!! so the rest of the evening we just lepak by the pool and beach and had our simple dinner somewhere ate seafood and balik hotel. all slept early that night

day 2 - under water world
i had purchased the tickets earlier via groupon, and thanked  for this as the que can be so long. twas during the labor day that we went here. so everyone can fly to langkawi too lol

after lunch at McD ( we went just for the a/c, read again we want their aircond)
i know we were so kiasu datang langkawi pun nak pegi McD, hadn't had enough at KL ke?
then some splurged on chocolates (yelah dtg langkawi must buy chocs other than the pinggan mangkuks, towel, senduk etc) don't worry i don't have that in my lists except for towel hehe

petang as usual lepak beach and swimming pool
malam went dinner to this cosy place called Laman Padi
i knew about this from my travel buddies page in FB so we check it out
they offered a set dinner where you can eat in the middle of paddy 'field' in the town
food was good with affordable price. go check it our and give a try. a whole new experiences

dinner at Laman Padi

its the island hopping time

ok next update on this trip (kene update cepat coz makcik Ezany dah sibuk nak tanye itinerary. lol)

the most awaited one, island hopping (mak buyung tak sedo diri)

after breakfast we walked to the Jesselton point. inside, there's alot of counters that offers you the package. we just chose randomly counter no 2, took package trip to manukan and sapi island RM70
tips : sampai each pulau, they will ask u to pay the park entrance fee (mcm kat redang tu) RM3 kot per adult. so bayar lagila ye 

as we have only 45mins to spend at at sapi so kitorg just chill2 while HM play sand castle a while. at 11.15am our boat arrived and took us to manukan. we have almost 2hrs 30mins there and we are enjoying ourself. Less crowds, that's the beauty holidaying on weekdays and with the clear blue water, lagi fun! snorkeling  gear can be rented at RM10 - 1 set google tuh

ayah & anak poser haha

jeti at manukan. fishes kat kaki2 tu je

less crowds, enjoy the sea!

fav island

journey balik boat rides sgt bumpy. yelah time tu abt almost 3pm, air pasang. doa je everything will be fine with si kecik inside. instructed the boatmen bawak slow sket.
sampai je jeti, semua kelaparan hahaha. mkn kasi kenyang be4 balik hotel

abt 530pm we went out again for last round of shopping and pasar phil (driving this time) and went to Tg Aru for a diff environment of food court. Kat sini famous ngn ABC spesel (if nak tgk how big and splurge is the abc spesel sila follow ig amirpistola) lol
kat foodcourt sini ada mcm2 tp tgk food gakla ada yg best and tak. i am so dead tired that night, must be the post-island-lagged. plus i have to start packing jugak. uwaaaaaaa
confirmed balik bilik kemas sket je lepas tu mmg pengsan, semua!

Sabah Trip

the long awaited break , to sabah we go with another 2 couples
 here's a short info for my trip :

1. Flight malindo - RM330 (return) 3 paxs
2. kereta sewa exora - RM350 - 3 nights
3. minyak keta : RM100 - 4 days

Hotels :

Kundasang - Kinabalu Pine Resort RM230 nett/room - incl bfast + dinner

Hotel Grandis at KK RM220nett/superior room - incl bfast (5mins walking to Jesselton Point)

Day 1

our flight was at 0745hrs with malindo via KLIA

my review : ample leg space, snack were ok (biskut +mineral) je pun, but ada jugak di jual meal if you wish to purchase (RM12 - food + drink)

entertainment pun ado gak so ok tak boringla

Reached KKIA, we took our Exora car and fixed our waze to Kundasang which took approx 2hrs+ (depend how u drive gakla)

Journey memula ok then lelama dah macam nak pi Cameron, mcm ular. being 6mo preggy boleh sakit pinggang dok lelama dlm keta ngn anak lagi

so later we stop at Nabalu, such a nice and cold place for a break

Tips : if nak beli colored t-shirt/souvenir better buy here as way cheaper than pasar Phil

and after the pening journey konah sana sini to reach Kundasang, we finally saw the sign of Kinabalu Pine Resort. weehooo. we need to stretch outttt

Kinabalu Pine resort

market yang jual fresh veges and fruits 

the small town, takde ape pung

and we give ourself almost 1.5hrs to relax and refresh. here the sunset is earlier than at KL,

so if nak buat activity better be earlyla. We olls just pergi to the nearest town to look out and lepak for a tea and snacks while waiting the sun down

after some real refreshment back in the room, we're gonna have our dinner. Food was scrumptious eventho just a simple one but they way they cooked it is nice, or maybe all of us were hungry. lol

and the night ends with just spending time in the room and hope that we're up early for the sunrise which is definitely not to be missed!

depan our blocks, heading for dinner

We are 5 years today!

Happy 5th Anniversary to us!!

literally it's our 7th years together as we took almost 2 yrs to known each other and decided to end it with an official relationship (it's more to 1 and half yrs la)

To refresh the old memories, we knew each other through friends. Well, we have  same cycle of friends (small world) and it was during that time that i love to spent times with my bunch of single friends and just don't think about serious relationship (obviously i've been trying hard after been dumped from my monkey love.uh-oh -____- )

getting know other guys and was hoping to get over the stupid a** ex-bf is such an immature me (now baru realize that. lol) but i don't regret that as i've met quite few decent and interesting guys that moment

we learnt from mistake kan. lol

when i taught that i almost give up and just strolling my life and enjoy with my friends then i met my husband. He is such a quite-type-of-person (he still, unlike me) but had a good observation

He got my no and YM ID chat and we had a chat. Carrying on life as friends (duhh) and did so much activities together which literally made us getting close till the day he popped that "special" question of me becoming his special GF (awws)

Then another new phase to continue and its getting serious where we talked about marriage
stuff etc. So i guess both of us are ready for it

a day before we got engaged

celebrating his birthday on 2008

i haven't figure out that i am conceived at this trip to Cameron. one of our usual honeymoon
 activities  on Nov 2009

celebrating his birthday 

our first honeymoon trip on July 2009

11th May 2008, we engaged for less than a year and on 28th March 2009, we were officially husband and wife. Solemnization were at Bukit Indah Mosque, witnessed by both family members and closed friends. A week later, 3-4 April 2009, we had our reception both at me and his place. 

And today we are at our 5th year, passing one stage in married life. i know there's more to come but i hope we'll be able to go through the ups and downs together and cherish every moment. 

and a baby is coming in a few months. be prepared
