Pulau Ketam (Crab Island)

Another weekend getaway to Pulau Ketam
Pulau Ketam is a small island located off the coast of Klang
We took the ktm from KL Sentral to Pelabuhan Klang (Port Klang)
From there
We took the ferry
The whole journey took approximately two hours
Again
It was an unexpected trip
My friend gave me a call the day before
And we decided to go the day after
Need to relax for a while (too much stress in the final semester)

Inside the coach. It was quite empty.
Managed to grab a few pictures while waiting for our ferry to arrive at the jetty



You will know that you are in Pulau Ketam when you are greeted by this.
They live a very simple and peaceful life~
It was a great way to experience the fishermen's lives

It's lunch time!
Since there were only the two of us
We decided not to order crabs
So we had O Jian and Lala Jian instead
Since my friend was from China
She was not used to the taste
Fried ice-cream as our dessert
Very very yummy! Must try!
Exploring the busy street to digest our food
Spot the small crabs?
Not forgetting OOTD
Loving the wooden window
Reflecting on my life
We finished exploring the village in two hours
Honestly speaking
There was nothing much to do
Especially under the scorching heat
However
This trip did allow a city girl like me to understand the lifestyle of the fishermen more
You see different things when you wander like a tourist in your own country
Meanwhile
This friend of mine flew back to China approximately two weeks after this trip
So it was the last trip for the two of us
I wish that I knew earlier
Didn't even manage to prepare a gift for her
Looking at the bright side
At least we got to travel and spend time together
To Ruby
I hope that you are doing well in China
Thank you for taking so many pictures for me during our numerous trips together
I am lucky to have a friend like you
Hope to see you again soon!

Australia Part 11- Stanwell Park, Kiama Blowhole, Kings Point Retreat Ulladulla for Camping

Image
Day 15 (4/1/16) The plan was to visit Stanwell Park, Nan Tien Temple, Kiama and finally Ulladulla to set up our tent for camping The weather forecast said that there would be a shower or worse, thunderstorm these few days Besides, Nan Tien Temple at Wollongong was closed for some reason Quite unlucky huh~ Driving through the forest Stanwell Park  Feeling so tiny in front of nature~ Stanwell Park is the first of several pretty coastal towns south of the  Royal National Park , on Lawrence Hargrave Drive. It's a popular beach for surfing and picnics and an easy day trip from  Sydney . The hills that rise sharply from the coast to the escarpment and the strong air currents make Stanwell Tops a prime spot for hang gliding. The  Grand Pacific Drive  passes through Stanwell Park on its spectacular route along the coast to the South Coast. Stop at Sea Cliff Bridge, located between Coalcliff and Clifton, for a walk along this engineering masterpiece (need to zoom in my pi

Eco Forest One Day Trip

Image
Have you heard of the Eco Forest in the heart of Kuala Lumpur? (Formerly known as Hutan Simpan Bukit Nanas) I only got to know about it recently And it shocked me that the city centre of KL actually has a forest?! This is the entrance that we entered from We took the monorail to Station Bukit Nanas Once you walk out from the station You will see this sign Just follow it There are actually 2 routes (one from Jalan Ampang and the other one from Jalan Raja Chulan) If you follow the Jalan Ampang route You will need to hike for approx 20-30 minutes in the Canopy Walk depending on your speed It was quite an easy hike But lesser people The Raja Chulan route is the nearest to the suspension bridge So if you just want to grab some nice Instagrammable pictures It is better to go to the Raja Chulan route Immersing ourselves in the forest There were actually very few people using this route So it is better to come in a bigger group of people And remember to bring mo

Palladium Cafe KL & Batu Caves

Image
On one fine day (3rd of August) Our original plan was to have our lunch at NU Sentral followed by Palladium Cafe KL But we ended up with a half day trip to the Batu Caves Unexpected trips are the best right? So after having done some shopping and lunch at Pasta Zanmai We took the KTM to Taman Wahyu According to one blog The Palladium Cafe is actually within 10-15 minutes walk from the Taman Wahyu KTM station We initially followed But unfortunately there was some construction going on that day So they blocked the roads (you can still walk there but it will be quite dangerous given that you have to walk besides the highway with speeding cars) After walking for about 10 minutes We walked back to the ktm station and took a cab instead (which only cost us RM3 cuz it was really near) It was a great workout especially when we had to carry the shopping bags and walk under the evil hot sun! Your mood will be instantl
