going places

Posted by Nurul Ain at Monday, March 16, 2009
well, last 2 days were the days with full of joy. on saturday, my family and i went to Changkat Ibol which is situated in Taiping, near Bukit Gantang. we went there to pay a visit to daddy's old friend (pakcik ape tah,x ingat)plus to celebrate his daughter and son's wedding. one thing to share, the menu for the wedding reception were all 'ala-kampung' style which is so much different from the ordinary wedding receptions that i've had attended. the menu are:

1) ikan keli goreng sambal (which is totally out from my favourite dish)

2) rendang daging (well...i guess it's kinda normal dish for kenduri kahwin.gee..)

3) daging kambing+ kacang panjang

4) ikan masak asam (tapi kaler kuning)

5) ikan goreng+ ikan masin

6) nasi putih (no nasi minyak or whatsoever)

7) air sirap


the special thing about this wedding reception was not only the menu but also the way the host portrayed the traditional wedding reception which to me is different. they put on the kain batik lepas as the alas meja (selalunya org guna kain batik lepas masa ada kematian..huhu). well... not only that, there was also a small hut (without any wall) built in front of the host's house. many people sit there and enjoy their lunch, just like in the kampung! kalah Ning Baizura.kehkeh ;P

after eating, we went to a waterfall. it is situated in Taiping, near Bukit Larut. the water was icy cold and my leg crammed because it's too cold in there.



puas mandi then we went home. owh!!! NO! from Taiping, we went to Kuala Kangsar to have our dinner (i don't know whether eating chicken rice at 6 o'clock is considered as dinner...hmmm...)





















we performed our asar prayer at Masjid Kuala Kangsar.







before i forgotten, it's a big achievement to me as i managed to drive a bigger car (than Kancil 850), my daddy's Wira that day! (well, most of you know that i can't drive big cars because of the size...but now i CAN! thanks to my HEART and BRAIN that i managed to overcome my weakness (driving big car. huhu... like the saying 'What you think is what you've become')


well the joy did not end there...the next day, we went to Cameron Highland. it's so cold up there and to make it worse,it's raining heavily for more than 2 hours. we climbed the mountain (by car,not by feet of course) using the new road at Simpang Pulai and the view (di kiri dan kanan jalan) was owesome!





this is what they called Chocolate espire- price RM 6.90

after having lunch, my mummy and daddy went shopping (especially the vege and some tea- compulsory) and my daddy bought me a new bag (it's kinda a cute).huhu. after that, we went to several other places like the Robinson Waterfall, and also to the Post Office (which had been launched by the late Prime Minister, Tunku Abdul Rahman, in the year 1956- very historical, and my brother and i had the opportunity to see the blackberry's tree at Tanah Rata.


Licin...



me and my new bag.huhu










in the afternoon (at about 4 o'clock) we climbed down the mountain but before we reach home, mummy had to make a detour because the road was flooded. hmm... so we arrived at nearly 7 p.m. in the evening and we were so tired that we went to bed early that night.

going places in two days? IT WAS FUN!
