it has been a great trip for me and Lydia…
It’s her first time to go to all these places and we enjoyed our time a lot.
Saturday, 19th July, Flight was delayed. MAS informed us that there will be 2 hours delay,
I wasn’t very happy becoz my sis. in Kch had to changed her busy schedule to pick us up.
After reached Kuching, my bro in-law drove us to his place. We settled down, I took my younger sis room and Lydia used the guest room. Then in the evening we went out for food hunt, thank God for ‘Kancil’ belonged to my Bro-in-law. It is a small Malaysia made car with turbo engine and auto gear box. We drove that car when we were there. It’s actually quite good, equipped with AC and Seat belt, it served us well.


Sunday morning, 20th July ’08, we went to visit Hope Kuching. It was a good catch-up with Bro and sis there. Then in the afternoon, we went out with my sis and bro-in-law, hunt for food.
Monday morning, my sis took 1/2 day leave to accompany us and sent us to bus station. we had a sarawak laksa for breakfast (yummy…!!!). then we went to buy some food for our lunch. Bus journey was very interesting for Lydia, it’s first time for her to take long bus ride(8 hours). The toilet in the bus was horrible, many small insects and other stuff. in indo 90% toilets are squat style, it’s very inconvenient, even for me who use that since young. 7.30pm we reached the place, My dad and younger sis was waiting at the pick up point. it was raining….my mom was at home waiting and cooking for the welcome home dinner celebration. Amazing home cook food….
we spent five days in pontianak,Indo enjoying ourselves with the family, we ate lots and lots of food and fruits… on thursday we went to my grandparent’s place to celebrate my grandpa’s bday. It was a great time spent with uncles/aunties and other relatives.
Friday afternoon, our flight was delayed 3 1/2 hours, reached batam about 9pm, my uncle picked us up and we managed to catch the last ferry back to Singapore. Thank God for the trip….
