My Story : Trip to JB Part 2

Second day in JB : 4/11/2007

Woke up early at 6am...performed prayer and fell asleep again til 7am. Everyone already awoke. Around 8am we left hotel for final touring...but 1st we looked for a place for breakfast. I was so not wanting to eat in another Mamak's but they're everywhere. I was so desperate! We went to this Nasi Padang restaurant but they only got lontong and the lauk pauk for lunch. No nasi lemak or plain kuih muih...I was boiled!!! And decided to entered whatever restaurant/stall we found next...so we ended up at Mamak's...very unpleasent ambient and the food were tasteless. Arghh what with us failed to find a decent place to eat. We're just hopeless case I guess.

So moved on...We went to the train station and bought our return tickets. I asked around for a place to buy dodol. My dad called last night and requested JB dodol. We went looking for it around the city but no dodol can be found. Mission incomplete! Then Pidah suggested us to visit Danga Bay again since we only covered half part of the area last night. Good idea since we're just going on circles there in the city!! We wanted to get on a little choo choo train at Danga Bay so we took a taxi there. On our way to buy train ticket we snapped some photos of the bay and confronted by a guy asking if we're interested to take a boat trip that cost only RM10. The catch was we need to wait for another 2 passengers to made up 12 adults for the boat to sail. Not wanting to waste our time we went straight for cho choo...hehehe.

Actually Danga Bay is not as big as i thought it was. It was only a short ride away on that train...and nothing interestoing to view in the morning except the bay and the other side of JB...which is Singapore la...went back to the dock...and now he had enough people to board the boat. Yeay!!! At first i was thrill and scared but soon I felt bored and sleepy. Half way through the trip I felt dizzy...oh nooo....suddenly I felt dizzy. Dang I had motion sickness again....all the way til the boat docked.

I needed something sour. We went to the food park nearby. Food is expensive here. A glass of lemon cost RM4...mee bandung RM5...mixed rice (fish, spinach and begedil) RM7. I don't mind if the taste is good but it just mediocre...Forget about JB food.

We hailed a taxi back to the hotel to finished packing and then checked out. 5 minutes walked to the train station and we're ready to leave JB. I don't know when will I be returning to this state but surely this is the last train journey to JB in a very long long time. Farewell JB...I had fun...and I had a mess of time here. Train left station at 2pm. It was a little kinda culture shock sitting in the economy class coach after a confortable journey on 1st class coach. The leg rest was not ergonomic that I've to put my back down my feet to make myself comfortable. Thank god I sit next to Pidah coz a plus size body like me on that small seat might caused body cramp not only to me but people next to me. lost the anxiety to take any photo along the journey coz We got a backhead coach. There goes my motion sickness again...but only for a short while..my dizziness went away right after I stuffed myself with Marry Brown chicken and nuggets. Fell asleep for 1 and a half hour...woke up...eat more...tried to sleep with no success. Looked around and just observing people around me. it was a very noisy coach. At Kluang came a malay couple who sat infront of my mom/our front row. I didn't realised anything until the guy moved to face his girlfriend. He just sat facing her all the way to KL. At first nothing suspicious about their behaviour but after a long observation...me and Pidah realised that they were actually smooching and snogging unlike Ron Weasley and Lavender brown in Harry Potter book. The guy even did some "massaging" and working his "garfu" up the girl's thingy...all under the coat wrapped around her body. What a view for me and Pidah...even my mom noticed their x-rated show. We gave some sarcastic remarks on them but they just so blur and stupid to realised we were on them. They just stupid malays!!! So cheap and desparate! Arghhhh...tension la ngan budak2 melayu zaman sekarang ni. Nampak cam educated tapi bongok! eeeeee...buat malu kaum je. I think even a chinese couple behind us noticed the malay couple actions from their view. I heard their giggling from behind. Shameful those fools!! Ish...buat dosa je aku ni kutuk orang.

Anyhow...the train made a long stop at Gemas station. At this time I already had bad headache and couldn't make myself to stand and walked around the station or even going to the toilet. I just sat there on a non moving train while my heart kept saying I need to make a walk. Finally I managed to take my butts off the seat and went to toilet...and the train decided to started moving while I was in the toilet....cheh...

The journey continued and the darkness of the night came to view (I closed the curtain all the way). I just can't wait to arrived at KL Sentral. Finally...at 8:45pm the train made it to its destination and off we jumped off the coach and made our way home...This is my story...and I know I could make it more interesting but I am to dried up to recalls everything that occured on this trip to JB and back again to KL.

Well next trip?! My mom wanna go to Ipoh...and that is where we're going to next time on the KTM train.

Til next time....ta ta...
