BB 18th Pesta - Day One

After a "good night sleep", we all wake up very early on the 30th May 2008. After wash up, we proceed to the cafeteria for the breakfast. We are served with fried rice and egg.

After got ourself officially registered for the Pesta, we proceed with our (self-organized) KK town trip. We waited for bus awhile at the bus stop, then one of the Sabahan officer told us that 30th of May is a public holiday for Sabah and NO BUS ARE OPERATING inside UMS! We were like @$%^%^$$... and no choice, we have to walk from Kampung E (where we stay) to the bus stop outside UMS.

As I said in the previous post, UMS wasn't a good place for you to travel by legs because there are alot of hills. So basically we are going up and down hills repeatedly. But on the bright side, we got the chance to see most of the building in the UMS.

After walking for about half an hour, we finally got ourself to the bus stop opposite UMS to wait for public bus. Basically, that bus stop is just a stopping point for the bus WITH NO SHADES AT ALL! Huh...so we have to wait like for about 15 minutes for bus to come under the hot sun. When the bus finally came, we got ourself into the small bus and it was so pack that we have to stand in the middle of people like sardin. The Boys were at the back while Lt. Adrian and me were in the front part of the bus. Lt. Adrian and me have prepared our money in our hand and was waiting for people to come and collect from us. But the weird thing is until we reach our destination, there was no one came and collect from us at all! I was thinking that, WOW, Sabah actually provides FREE SHUTTLE BUS for their citizen! But later our Boys told us that they actually paid for the ride. Maybe the bus is too full that the bus the guy can't even move to the front. So lucky us, free ride!

Lt. Adrian ever stayed in KK for about 2 months for his job, so basically he was our own tour guide for the day. He first brought us to a shopping centre, forgot what's the name but it is a place full of handphone shop. The air-conditioning in that whole place actually not functioning at its so hot inside!

After an hour, Lt. Adrian brought us to the other shopping centre which is just a street away. And the first thing I saw when I walked into the shopping centre was...

Ok, I'm not suppose to show that!

After done with the shopping centres, we moved on to the sea side for...

YEAH, for CHIVAS!!!

At...

THE COCK AND BULL BISTRO... why don't they change it to COCK & PUSSY BISTRO?

Then we proceed to...

YEAH RIGHT... as if those place are open in the day time... our Boys are actually very innocent, they only have alcohol in chuch, during the communion, and they only sing in church, not karaoke. Can't believe? Well, look at the photo below, the corporal was so innocent that he don't even know what is Chivas... he only drink black label.

Ok, lets get back to the track. Basically the whole street beside the sea were full of bistro, karaoke, pub, lounge... which only operates at night time. So when the sun is still up in the skies, those place are just so dead.





About 4:00 pm, we move to another shopping centre and wait for our transpot together with members from 4th Kuching Company.

About 4.45, our transport finally came...

Ok, we went back by bus...
