KK trip day 1

Yeah!I'm back,from Kota Kinabalu.Actually was back here on Sunday but went to Putrajaya on Monday morning for the 'Pre-flight briefing with JPA and MAS'.(quite an interesting day,might post bout it later).So am only able to post this one now.Along with Alan(Sabah),Lai,Gane,Wei Shen,my roommate(Wern),CT Ho(Ah Tuck) and Siok Min(pinku),8 of us went there for the first time,except Alan,of course.

First,me,Wern,Alan and Pinku met in KL Sentral while the others went to LCCT straight from Gane's house.From KL Sentral,the bus I took to LCCT was Aerobus,cost me RM14(return),single trip is RM8.While Skybus cost RM9 for single trip.

We booked our flight tickets in December,cost around RM300 for return flight between KK and LCCT.


The bus i took.


Our flight:AK5106,departs at 1110.




Took off



First glance of KK from the window

Welcome to Sabah!



After checked into the hostel(Red Palm Hostel),Alan took us around the town and we did some shopping.As expected,everything was expensive!We went to a few shopping malls,and 2 markets in town.Pasar ikan masin and Pasar kraftangan.The people there were not friendly at all..maybe because we are not foreigners??


Something I found very cool in the Pasar kraftangan

You can see many tailors with a sewing machine like this at roadside.


Lion dance in shopping mall(to collect ang paw)Well it was the last day of CNY actually.


Believe it?There's a few bah kut teh stores in town!!


Market at seaside(it was terribly smelly there)


Some cool folks playing chess at the roadside.Can you see this in KL?


Rm8 for each..anyone interested?Minemura sensei or Kodama sensei maybe..


Dinner in a super high class chinese restaurant,thank you Mr.Johnson Goh!

Sorry for Gane,he wasn't inside,the cameraman.


That's it!We didn't really do anything at night cause all the shops in KK closes early.Even I wanted to go have a look at KK's clubs but due to no one was clear with which club is nice,just canceled the plan.The hostel comes with internet service(a computer) and there was a tv with Astro as well!Not bad huh for rm78-3 nights stay.I consider that very,very cheap.
