TigerDragon Family

This trip was organized by Warren NC. 43 people from Warren, 30 adults and 13 children, went for this 1-day trip to Desaru on 19 Jul 08. The coach pickup point was just outside Warren lobby, very convenient. We left Warren at about 8:30am on the Sat morning. There was a jam near the 2nd Link. However, we entertained ourselves, singing karoake in the coach. By the time we reached Desaru for lunch (has baby lobsters for lunch), it was already close to 1pm.

Today is my birthday. Whole family celebrates for me. Mummy bought me a toy, daddy got nothing for me yet the best wishes. daddy is soo…stringy.

Today, all of us from the AMD Chartered Foundry Project gave Song Dan a farewell lunch treat. She will go back to China tomorrow. We went to Katong Five Star Chicken Rice Restaurant. Interestingly, Five Star Chicken Rice is one of the contenders of the on-going Chicken Rice competition organized by OMY.

In the morning, we left for Malacca. From KL to Malacca, the bus ride took about 2 hours. Not too bad.

The first place we visited was the Maritime Museum.

Then we wallked along Jonker Street. In the afternoon, there is not too much activity. I guess it only comes to life in the night.

The train arrived KL on time.No delay..thank goodness.

First very important thing we did was to buy our bus tickets to Malacca from Transnasional in Puduraya Bus Station. After that we then checked in to our hotel Ancasa which is located just next to the bus station.

We met SG around 10:30am and he brought us around KL.

Mainly we went to Low Yat Plaza to look for computer stuff. Then we went KLCC and visited the Discovery Center (all for Ming Liang’s sake). We later went up to the skybridge in Petronas Twin Towers. The last time we went KL we missed this chance. The view from skybridge is quite good.

In the nite, we had dinner and did shopping in Chinatown.

We left for our Malaysia trip on Fri 13/6/08 night.This time we took an overnight train to KL.This is the first train ride for the 2 boys. They are having some fun on the bunk beds.

Actually the train ride was rather bumpy. Most of us did not get much sleep. Ming Xuan was the only one who could sleep like a log.

Also this trip we went with LS and YS. We would tour KL together with SG as our host.After that, we went to Malacca while LS & YS went to Genting.
