My Foot Prints

Went to  Terengganu after been there in 2007 with mba frens...now with office mates.. Back then Noor drove but now I am the driver...I bought myvi in April so this is to test drive my new myvi ..



Start my journey at 615am ..macam pi kerja je...meet at PETRONAS before tol Gombak..
I ate at McDonald while waiting for the 2 sis linda & iza...at 8 am we start the journey
Both of them like my new car hehe...me too We exit Temerloh and stop at warung for bfast ..along the road there are all green (Pahang full of forest) no jem so quite ..the road zig zag nice...


Around 1230 we stop at Musem Sg Lembing ...the 2 ladys want to experience walking in the longest mining tunnel  ..unfortunely it open at 2pm...(the fee is RM40 for adult if I m not mistaken). so we just visit the museum..which previously the office for british management the Pahang Tin Company on Sg Lembing ...The museum display all the tools and information on the mining the tin at Sg Lembing ...the operation stop (mining for tin) in 1986 because of tin price so cheap. The town seem so quite and not many people the but its unique ...the feeling of being in British time still there or may be only the old people stay there..most of the shop still close at noon ....most of the resident is the Chinese ..this may due to most of the mining workers were Chinese...we perform our Zohor and Jamak Takdim Azar at the musem surau .....at about 2.30pm we on the road again..



At Dungun we stop at this Chinese coffe shop (my fren said it was in jalan2 cari makan) i had a hot coffee and one toast bread with kaya... ok la. .... on the way we stop to buy keropok lekor..jagung bakar ...we reached KT about 845..we lost haha....we called the chalet owner and he also called us many times to give us direction ...at about 9.30 we finally managed to arrived at the place ...affter checked in we went for dinner at NR (the chalet owner said it was in jalan2 cari makan) the best things is its cheaper than in KL...



We went back around 10.30pm...that night i can't sleep ..each hour i wake up...until morning but it seem that the villagers also not sleeping because there always sound of motor bike...subuh around 530am ..my fren wake up earlier ..i think she perfrom tahjud ..at about 6.40am we went for the beach..its just cross the road infornt of the chalet.. the  villagers are fishermen so there a lots of boats there ...the sand also nice.

We wait for the sun rise..my fren talk with the fisherman..they was told that they sell the fish at RM4 perkg, the catch per day uncertain some time they can get 20kg sometimes lesst,the petrol is RM50 each time they go to the sea...


That morning we have breakfast with the villagers they are so nice ...my fren asked alot ..they asked are we were student from UMT ...hehe.. iza say muka kami macam student ke pak cik ..he said ye la mugkin master ker...(he is good ..iza sdg buat part time master in management di UM)....The warung is nice they bungkus all the food so it easier for the customer to buy also to eat there...i ate nasi lemak and satay with teh tarik..there are alot of food which we don't know the name but..the pak cik explain all...


We check-out at around 10am and set to search for keropok ..we just drive and found sinage ..pusat lekor or lesong  .(mcam tu ) ..then we found alot of shop selling keropok..we park then we walk to shop by shop until we reached keropok kay yah...the shop is big ..we ate keropok lekor/losong and drink. We also buy some keropok kering to take home.  We the on the road again around 11.30am...to dataran shah bandar ..as usual we lost again and ask the petrol pam workers how to reach there... We park at the parking lot then went to the Jeti ...linda want to see how the corak Batik done at Takir ..we took a boat there (RM 1 per trip) and walk till we found the place its so hard to do corak Batik ..they have to stamp each corak and the workplace not that comfortable its hot ...the stamping liquid like wax/lilin ...en Azhar said ianya kerja turun temurun...to me he should commercialise the business .. the work palce is just on the ground ,...and dusty ...it like bengkel..u dont know if u dont asked people..he said each coast RM8 without labour cost...he sell it at RM18...the have shop at pasar payang he mentioned 24...





Around 120 noon we went to pasar payang there alot of food clothes etc...then we went to restaurant Binjai.. we can take all the food in small plate but they will only charged us for  what we eat..its cheap ....later we went to Masjid Kristal... to solat Zohor and Asar Jamak ....to reach they we have to ask policeman...we all so frustrated coz the sinage not there....we have to make u turn there and here..to reach there...

We arrived at masjid kristal around 3.30pm ..what  i can say is the masjid is like replika je...not really function as masjid ...there is no fan or airconditon like other masjid ....also the taman tamaudun which nearby the mosq close on tuesday so not much we can do there... then went to Batu Buruk as our last destination ....around 415 pm. we ate abc till around 505pm we set off to KL...iza want to eat maggi ketam so we decide to use the main road (none sell this).....rather off using the highway... However this is not a good decision all the way to Kuantan ...there no exist to any Highway to KL... also the heavy rain and alot of road construction we reach Gambang Kuantan aroud 9.30pm ... We found the sinage but we didnot reach the exist ...later we found petronas ...all of us quiet scared we get lost so we decide to solat maghrib jamak and Isyak ... luckly we were on the right direction....we eixt the Gambang KL Highway around 10pm...and reach KL around 11.55pm ...after sending linda and iza i went home the clock show 12.30 midnight..i m not brave enough to drive home straight so sleep at my sister house ...that night i arrived at 12.50mdnighat...( i need to drive about 20 minutes more to reach my house) so this is a good decision.

The journey back from KT to KL so not nice because its at night ..heavy rain .etc..we only stop twice and petrol pam and R&R (just me buying nescafe and chewinng gum to keep awake)...so from 5pm to 12 midnight so almost 6 hours .. i m so tired and could chat...at all while driving .. luckly the two girls chatting until we reach KL..it helps me keep awake while driving...my Myvii passed the test..of long journey...






Thanks to my two frens for the 2 days journey...may Allah swt Bless us always
