沙巴之旅 - 第二天 / Journey to Sabah - Day 2

清晨雞啼聲從我耳邊響起﹐望出窗外天色已亮﹐還以為睡遲了。看看手錶才五點四十五分﹐想一想才記得東馬的時間是比西馬快一小時﹐所以天色才會亮得比較早。但是政府還是把兩地的時間拉回相同﹐有點不習慣。在這可說是整晚沒睡過﹐因為要多謝那吸血鬼整晚在我耳旁嘮叨地響個不停﹐再加上這裡是鄉村﹐空氣是超冷的﹐真的是無法入睡。我獨自在屋外走走﹐看見了XX小姐的”獨立洋房”對面有間廟。本想進去拜拜﹐但那兒有野狗﹐所以放棄了。最令我想不到的是當我望向XX小姐屋子側左邊的小山丘時﹐不盡讓我捏了一把冷汗﹐因為我看見了墳場。抖了抖﹐心中說聲”百無禁忌﹐阿彌陀佛”﹐連忙跑進屋裡。想開口跟XX小姐說我看見了甚麼時﹐當我指向墳場那裡話還沒講完時﹐聰明的她笑著問我是否看見了墳場。我看她不想我擔心所以昨晚才不肯告訴我﹐因為昨晚當車子駛進時一片黑暗﹐甚麼都看不見。最後她對我說了一句”你不犯他們﹐他們就不犯你啦”。想想也是﹐因為現在我住的地方對面也是墳場呀﹐有甚麼好怕。

Woke up in the morning and looked at the sky outside the window, it started dawn. Thought I was over sleep, but when looked at the watch it shows 5:45a.m. Now only I remember that the time at East Malaysia is 1 hour faster than West Malaysia, that’s the reason it dawn earlier but Government still change the East Malaysia time same as West Malaysia time. The whole night I can’t sleep very well because all thanks to “my best friends”(mosquitoes) “telling stories” beside my ears, added here is village & the weather is super cold make me can’t sleep. I was walking around the village & found out that there is a temple just opposite to Miss XX’s house. Thought want to go there for a pray but there is a lot of dogs outside the temple, so can’t make it. It shocked me when I looked at the small massif at the other opposite side of Miss XX’s house, guess what I saw? Is a cemetery. Shake for 2 seconds, just said “Amitabha” & run into the house. Thought want to tell Miss XX what I saw just now, but she is so clever & asked me back is it saw the cemetery. I think she don’t want to tell me yesterday night cause don’t want to scare me, because when the time we came back is so dark & can’t see anything.

在屋裡坐了一會﹐九點十五分XX小姐帶我到坐落在新兵南邦(Penampang Baru) 的同心素食館用餐。過後我們來到了坐落在下南南(Inanam) 的聖凱特利教堂(St. Catherine Church) 。在這裡拍了照後﹐我們來到了坐落在市中心的中央廣場(Centre Point)。

At 9:15a.m, we went to One Vision Vegetarian Restaurant for our breakfast. After that, follow Miss XX to the St. Catherine Church located at Inanam. Snapped few photos here & proceed to Centre Point located at Kota Kinabalu for shopping.

過後XX小姐因有點事要做﹐所以我獨自來到了獨立廣場(Wisma Merdeka)走走。過後到了二樓的一個素食檔子﹐這檔子是榮(NottyBoy)的伯母和她的朋友合開的﹐東西還蠻好吃。

After that, I went to Wisma Merdeka alone cause by Miss XX got some emergency case need to settle. Lunchtime went to the vegetarian restaurant located at the 2nd floor. This vegetarian restaurant was open by NottyBoy’s aunty & his auntie’s friends. The food here is delicious.




















獨立廣場 / Wisma Merdeka


因為獨立廣場對面就是大海﹐趁還有時間就去了那兒走走。我還租了快艇越過對岸的加亞島(Pulau Gaya) 。這島都是菲律賓人居住的﹐本想上岸看看但快艇駕駛員說這裡的人很壞﹐所以放棄了﹐只拍了幾張照。回岸後﹐我沿著海岸走去﹐經過了亞庇中央菜市場﹐然後來到了哥打京那巴魯廣場(KK Plaza) 走走。這裡的廣場和西馬的廣場大致上都一樣。

The opposite of the Wisma Merdeka is the seaside, cause by still early so went there for a look. I rent a speedboat for crossed over to the Gaya Island that opposite to Wisma Merdeka. The residents at the island are Filipino, thought want to visit the village in the island but the speedboat driver not allowed cause they said the residents here are very bad so at the end can’t make it. Just snapped few photos & back to Kota Kinabalu. I walk through the seaside again & passed through the Kota Kinabalu Market (Pasar Besar Kota Kinabalu). After that went to KK Plaza for a window-shopping. The shopping center here is not much different compare with the shopping center at West Malaysia.

五點鐘XX小姐帶我來到了丹絨亞如海灘(Tanjung Aru Beach)﹐這裡的風景還不錯。本想在這兒拍日落﹐但沒有眼福因為天氣不好﹐只坐了一會就回了。我們回到了同心素食館用餐﹐過後就回到XX小姐的家休息。這一天比較早休息因為明天要趕路上某某地方﹐下一篇才跟你說那地方是那裡﹐賣個關子吧! :-)

5p.m we went to Tanjung Aru Beach, the sea view here is nice. The earlier plan was snap the sunset photo at here but can’t make it cause the weather is very bad, so just snapped few seaside photos & proceed to One Vision Vegetarian Restaurant for dinner. After dinner, we straight away back to Miss XX’s house for rest. Today sleep earlier cause the next day we will have a long journey to somewhere, will let you know in the next post where is the next stop we went to. Stay & wait for the next post! :-)

沙巴之旅 - 第一天 / Journey to Sabah - Day 1

今年已工作四個月多都沒拿過休假﹐很想去某某地方旅游﹐所以就決定了來個五天四夜沙巴之旅吧。

這趟旅游我獨自上路﹐從星期五(五月十二日)中午一點四十分出發﹐兩點三十分在從吉隆坡中環(KL Sentral) 坐一個小時的巴士來到了亞航機場(LCC-Terminal)。報到和檢查行李後﹐在那傻傻地等了大約兩小時。飛機終于在五點四十五分起飛了。這次搭飛機的感覺比上次來得好﹐但是在跑道沖上天空的感覺真的很怕﹐每一次都是那麼怕﹐我也不知道在怕甚麼。這天的天氣超好﹐我真的很有眼福因為這是我生平第一次從機上看到了日落。你們也有眼福因為我拍下了這一幕。哈哈。

八點鐘到達了哥打京那巴魯亞航機場﹐踏出了機場就看見了我的同事(稱她為XX小姐)。她帶我去吃晚餐﹐晚餐後因為太夜了所以直接回XX小姐的"獨立洋房"。她的家坐落在乒南邦(Penampang)的董加航鄉村(Kampung Dungkahang)。洗澡後直接回房休息﹐感覺上東馬的人比西馬的人早睡。這就是我第一天的行程。


Year 2006 is passing so fast, now already May & I had work for 4 months that never take any leave. So April planned to take leaves on May for a five days four nights holiday trip to Sabah.

I was alone for the trip. The trip started on Friday 12th May at 1:40pm from home, 2:30pm took one-hour journey by SkyBus from KL Sentral to AirAsia LCC-T (Low Cost Carrier Terminal). After check in, waited there for almost 2 hours like an idiot. Finally the plane departed at 5:45pm. The feeling on the flight is much better than last time, but when the time the plane speed up to the sky I was scared. I wasn’t known why every time I so scared at the speed up. The weather on the day was super perfect; I am super lucky because this is my 1st time managed to see the sunset on the plane in my life. I snapped the photo for the sunset too. Hehe.

8pm reach at AirAsia Kota Kinabalu Terminal. After stepped out to the terminal, met up with my colleague Miss XX. She accompanied me for my dinner, and the time was late so we straightaway back to her “Stand Alone Bungalow” located at Dungkahang Village, Penampang. After bath, straightaway sleep cause need more energy for tomorrow. I feel the east Malaysian sleep more early than the west Malaysian. Basically, this is my schedule for the 1st day.

不孝子。。。 / I'm Not A Filial's Son...

雖然母親節已過了四天﹐但我在這還是要對母親說聲”母親節快樂”。媽﹐愛您一萬年。哈哈。在母親節當天做了不孝子﹐沒能和母親慶祝母親節因為要出遠門﹐但在出門前做了一件母親想不到的事, 那就是親吻了母親的面。這勇氣也不知從那兒來的, 昨天才從小妹的口中得知我的那麼一親差點讓母親落淚﹐這是母親告訴小妹的。

其實孝心不一定只是在母親節才實行﹐對我來說每天都是母親節, 不要等到她不再時才來孝敬﹐那已太遲了。在此﹐願天下所有的母親”母親節快樂”。

Although Mother's Day has passed 4 days ago, I’m here wishing my mom Happy Mother's Day. Mom, I love you! Haha. I’m not a filial's son to my mom, on Mother's Day did not celebrate together with my mom & family cause went out to somewhere. But before went to somewhere, I did something that mom will never though before. Guess what? I gave a big kiss to my mom face; see how brave am I. Haha. My sister told me yesterday, she said the kiss that I gave to my mom almost make my mom cry, this is what my mom told my sister.

Actually filial is not only given on Mother's Day, for me everyday is Mother's Day. Do not wait until she is not here then only filial to her, that is too late. Again, wishing every mom in the world a Happy Mother's day.

它也有那個! / It also got that thing!

它也有那個!星期天母親從菜市場買了一大包番茄回來﹐結果發現了其中一粒長有那個”小弟弟”。這還是第一次看見這樣的番茄﹐長得還蠻像的。不知這”小弟弟”會給家人的哪一位仁兄吃下去﹐哈哈!

It also got that thing! Last Sunday Mom bought a pack of tomatoes from market & found out one of the tomato has it own “bird”. This is my first time see such tomato, it look like the real one. Not sure this “bird” will eat by whom later, haha!
