BKI 2016
Earlier this month, me and my siblings had a short vacay. Of course we went to Kota Kinabalu. That city is literally our second hometown. We visit it more than we did with Betong. Betong is just too cumbersome to reach. ☹ Beside, we managed to secure a Year End Sale by Maswings. Like 70 MYR each, one way trip.
This time around, we decided to go to places we (or, them siblings) never been before; Poring and Dairy Farm. Sadly, since I can't apply any holiday yet, we have to go for a short one. So, we aren't able to go to many places. Plus, we can't find anyone that willing to bring us to such places. We end up go to Poring just. That pun, tak mandi air panas. Lol.. Sempat mandi kat air terjun ja and it was cold, rainy kinda day. Lol.. But it wasn't the destination that count, it was the journey and the experiences. Maybe next year we can go to a lot more places with a lot more time allocated.
Here are some picture from the short vacay:
Arrived at the park via Uber. I went here first time, exactly 10 years ago, on a school trip.
About an hour plus plus via taxi, we arrived at the Poring. It was rainy. I bawa payung sendiri cause I went anywhere with my payung. My siblings had to bought two for them. Nasib ada jual kat luar that location.
Masuk Taman Kupu-Kupu, I have never been here before, so alang-alang dah sampai sini, masuk ja la. About 3 MYR per pax pun. Nothing extraordinary, unless you appreciate nature like I do, then you'll be mesmerized by it. If I was a designer, I can look up to the beautiful butterflies as my inspiration.
BTS of this pic, I thought the rama-rama was alive. Told my sis to take a pic before dia terbang. Dah snapped gambar, rupa-rupanya dah arwah. Sedehh. So i literally bergambar dengan corpse of butterfly. Sorry, tak bermaksud nak menyinggung perasaan komuniti serangga. ☹
Inside this cage, tons of butterflies. Termasuk praying mantis. I hate them. Not Trump's hate but you get by what I meant.
Ni dah sampai kat atas. Kena jalan (or hiking, depends with your stamina) about 600m dari Taman Kupu-kupu tu. Sampai sana ja, takda orang pun. I just jumped right into once I saw it. Dah la isipadu air terjun banyak since baru ja hujan.
Ni gambar kat bawah that tallest waterfall. Deras, sejuk and then suddenly, ada ikan menggigit your legs if you're standing long enough. This pic was taken right before the fish feeding on our legs. My sis managed to took that reaction pic tapi weolls semua look so ugly at that sebab tak tahan geli. ☺
Last moment before saying goodbye to that waterfall. Nampak tenang, tapi silap sikit ja boleh jatuh dibuat nya sebab deras sangat.
Ni tunggu kawan kakak ambil balik pergi bandar. Ready for our early flight in the morning, the very next day. Tak sempat pun shopping but that's a sign perhaps. Huhu..
Adios Kota Kinabalu. See you again somewhere in the future. Simply the best.
