so here's the plan. Next Mon and Tue are Raya holidays, and the weekend after is our last short sem break before we start on our next DBA "adventure" phuh phuh! we will be spending this weekend in Kuantan (unfortunately no more AFFORDABLE rooms at Hyatt - which is like... why is it the ONLY hotel by the Cempedak seaside???? oh well nvm, we got a good rate at Vistana which looking at the hotel website map, it's by Jalan Sisek which is supposed to lead directly to Teluk Cempedak... so if there is no tall trees and buildings in front of my going-to-battle-it-out-for high floor-room facing Cempedak, mama should still be able to enjoy my Kuantan sunrise in my room with a cuppa, right right??). A distant relative of papa's getting married this Sunday (and same time mama's fav cousin is also getting married in a Melbourne garden wedding swoooooon).
...then.. then?? we'll be back home on Mon. So 2 days back we started getting all sorts of crazy idea to hop into another short no-brainer trip (and mama really mean it, like mama wants even my drinks taken care of no joke!). First was... hey how about shooting to Taman Negara after the wedding. Complication. People sharing our car can't go. Oh HK!! No.. boring. Been there done that this same season. Bali?? No fun just 2 persons. Langkawi... come on! Cameron... yikes again??? Genting... and do what? Oh how about this... Singapore! ..nah concrete jungle no thanks. we finally found out what was itching us... we miss sunny seaside (sounds funny since we are living in a freaking island ourselves!)... but you know what? we just want to go to a hip seaside like Krabi or Koh Samui.
We are hoping Beautiful Planet can arrange a special trip for us to Samui, and let us know fast. Like tomorrow. We miss the old times of starting a trip at 3 in the morning and drooling for 10 hours in a minivan bumping from one town to another country (so evidently, flying will be our last option. just zaps the fun out of traveling huh!)... big BIG hoping BP can swing it :)
