My Summer Romance

Heya guysss~ ^^

I feel much better now and am in the mood to blog~

Thanksss soo so so so much for all the comforting words and supports u guys gave :)

Thanks so much too for not giving up on my blog and still keep coming back to my blog after I've stopped writing for at least 2 months now.... I'm touched :)

Okay so this entry is gonna be about my trip to Ken Ken's hometown.... Kota Kinabalu early last month.

Hello, Good Afternoon ladies and gentlemen. Thank you for choosing Malaysia Airlines. I wish you a good flight ahead :)
HAHA! Dreaming a bit...

Nice or not?? KK's view from above.

After debating for months whether which hotel to book, I've finally decided to choose Sutera Harbour, The Magellan Wing. Apparently, Sutera Harbour is divided into two wings: The Pacific and The Magellan.

Basically, The Pacific is mostly for businessmen to stay in and The Magellan is more for families to stay for its 5-star resort.

At first, I wanted to book Le Meridien that is situated in the center of the city. After much thought, Sutera Harbour was the choice because of its beach (even though it's man-made). Boy I was lucky!! Sutera Harbour was the besttttt resort I've ever been to~! Le Meridien looked so crappy when I went to visit the KK city. I wonder what else I can do other than touring around the KK city that would take me max 40 mins to finish if I were to choose Le Meridien, without beach.

I arrived at the resort around 1.00pm and the room wasn't ready yet so I was led to the lounge for a free cocktail.
Owh~ and a free personal tour guide! Lolx!!!

Like seriously, I don't know how to describe my feelings when I first arrived at the resort's lobby. It was..... huge... and freaking nice... Ok, maybe I'm just not rich enough but the lobby itself can form like a few houses of my parents'. Or maybe I'm just not rich enough to always stay in 5-star hotels and that this a normal size for a 5-star hotel lobby.

Neh... the reception counter on the left bit... can see? Lol.. the lobby is so spacious!

Ok I know why~! KK's land must be very cheap and therefore it's not that costly for them to buy bigger land for the resort! LOLX! Joking!!


Checking in into my room, I felt so~~ ahh~~ on holiday mood~~~
SUMMER HOLIDAY YOOO! LOL!
What a waste I didn't take many photos of my room and the really nice bathroom, both with really really nice interior. (Sutera Harbour ought to be paying me coz I'm indirectly advertising for them!)

The first thing I did was to check out the bathroom.. part of the really cool bathroom overlooking from inside the room through the wooden windows..

I was actually sitting on the counter top of the bathtub, and the tour guide refused to leave me alone =p

then....

THE BALCONY!!!
Views from the balcony

My neighbour.. hehe.. Korean women

After a short nap, we went to get ready for the evening walk.. to check this place out..

Camwhored a bit before going out~ hehe..

Then... I realised something beautiful is happening outside:
SUNSET!! ZOMGGG!!

So I sat down and enjoyed the rare view for a bit

After that, we went to the receptionist and was told to go to the Bell Boy for taxis. Well, not exactly Bell boy, but there was a desk with friendly and beautiful ladies to help you with transportation. We were told that the taxi fare to the city would be RM10 and after agreeing, she picked up the phone and called the taxi for us and returned saying that my taxi will arrive in 5 mins and also a card for us with the plate number of the taxi's. So efficient and friendly!

So we walked in the KK city.
Walk walk walk.
And stumbled upon this:

When I first saw the name of the restaurant, I laughed.

But when I saw the name of this restaurant:I couldn't resist taking photos!
Dedicated to all KSCB ppl :)
KILL KENNY!!

One thing I really respect about KK is their taxi drivers. They are really honest. I was told that the taxi fare to the city from the resort was RM10 but expect they will charge me more when I hailed a taxi by the city road to go back to the resort. To my surprise, the driver said RM10!

And the same too to every other rides we took to and from the KK city. They never raised the fare. If it was KL's taxi drivers, hahaha... probably doubled up the fare upon seeing us as tourists. Oh btw, they don't run the taxi-meter thinggy for the fare, so I often wonder how they normally set the taxi fare.

My room service for one of the nights, Fish and Chips.. RM60!!
