Assalamualaikum w.b.t,

Salam bersiaran.

Dah lama tak update cerita-ceriti yang bersepah dalam kepala otak. Sekarang baru lah boleh dizahirkan.
Mintak maaf la ek, santapan mata kali ni agak kebasian sedikit. And more basi entry after this.

Orait. Now nak bercerita pasal my opening trip of year 2014. Ni di kira as trip belas kasihan la. Sebabnya tempat tinggal & makan di tanggung, berak cangkung. Even duit minyak, teksi and duit feri pun boleh claim. Pendek kata, trip kali ni budget trip la. Tumpang mother in law pegi meeting je.

Our destination is west coast area, Pulau Pangkor, Perak Darul Redzuan.

We start our journey by driving from Kajang, Selangor to Marina Island at 12.30pm++. From South-North Highway, we took exit LATAR to Manjung. The journey is about 238km only.

Most people will take exit Bidor to Manjung, 265km. Maknanye if according to map, you turun dulu ke utara then u kene naik balik to west. Even some will take exit Gopeng/Ipoh, 289km. Others you also can exit Tanjung Malim, 262km to Manjung. Here I advice you to plan your route then you can save some fuel.

Kalau ikut jalan kampung yang I amik ni, just make sure you reach the point of place. If you not reaching certain point of places then you are out from your direction. Ikut jalan ni boleh singgah-singgah gak la, sebab time ni ada orang jual mentarang mentah, mentarang bakar, buah-buahan n etc. So tak boring sangat la. Boleh singgah beli kerepek gak kat Tanjung Karang.

Sampai Marina dah agak petang. Kiteorg naik feri 5.30pm to Pangkor Island. Sini tiket feri agak murah berbanding jeti Lumut. You can park your car here which max per day is RM10. And guess what, ferry ride to Pangkor only takes 10 minute from Marina Jetty, instead of 40 minutes from Jeti Lumut. So for those yang mabuk-mabuk laut tu, I suggest you naik la kat Marina.

While waiting for the ferry, sempat la shopping jajan sikit. Nazhan was sooooo excited nak nek ferry. 1st ride la katakan. Then ferry sampai, we have to walk a bit before sampai ferry. Masa ni tetibe Nazhan wat fobia plak tak mau naik ferry. Die kata tak payah la..Then Kraiiiii..aiyooo. Dah satu hal plak berdrama nak nek ferry. Sib bek masa tu kire kiteorg ni last2 sikit. Kalau kata que awal-awal tadi. Mau jem kat pintu ferry. At last masuk la jugak dia dalam perut ferry tu.













Actually masa pusing pulau ni, tempat yang paling lama kiteorg berhenti is tempat jual makanan kering like ikan bilis, ikan masin n etc. Macam-macam beli.

Then petang tu after dah abis pusing pulau, kiteorg jalan-jalan depan chalet. Banyak kedai2 jual cenderamata dan kedai2 makan. So kiteorg melayan je la ABC n Cucur-cucur sambil tengok orang mandi laut. MIL plak masa tu dah kene panggil for meeting.

Dah almost malam, kiteorg balik for dinner plak. Dinner malam tu BBQ and ade karaoke. Nak dijadikan cerita..masa diorg tghsyok karaoke skali blackout...kekekeke. Sib bek la masa tu dh abis makan. So kiteorg gerak je la balik bilik. Malam tu nak tido tak lena sebab panas. Plus a few person kat situ wat bising tak hengat. Panas hati MIL gua...hehe.

The next day when I wake up untuk subuh, sekali MIL dapat news that her mom has passed away. Innalillah~. serta merta bangun bersiap bagai terus amik first ferry to Marina and bertolak balik. Pagi tu anak-anak tak mandi, and luckily beg sume dah siap packing malam tu.

Alhamdulillah, perjalanan balik kiteorg dipermudahkan. Sampai elok-elok2 je arwah sudah dimandikan dan dikafankan. Kiranya sempat la MIL menatap arwah wat kali terakhir. Semoga arwah ditempatkan bersama-sama orang yang beriman. Al-Fatihah.
