Journey To The North East, Day 2

The alarm rang at 7.45am but as usual, I don't wake up when the alarm rings but I woke up at 8.15am today. I took a nice warm shower while my mom was still asleep and my dad went for a morning jog around the area. At 8.50am, we went down to the lobby and saw my father's friends, the professors. Had a small chit chat and few sentences later, my dad called the other friend who gave us the room. He asked to wait for 15 minutes since his son and daughters just got up. When they came down, they had some slight argument but my dad and I decided not to get involved with it.

All of us then walked to Chowrasta Market for breakfast which was rather far from the hotel. It was scorching hot cause of the clear weather we had. There are some events which I laughed on the way there but I decided not to put it here.. (Family matters between my parents =.=) 20 minutes later, we eventually arrived the market and entered a coffee shop. We had the intention to eat Curry Mee but the shop was closed. We then decided to eat Kuey Teow Soup which was rather a disappointment. After the rather disappointing meal, we headed back to the hotel but since my mom doesn't wanna walk under the extremely, overwhelming, scorching hot sun, we took the taxi back for RM10. The taxi drove us back to the hotel but he missed one turning to the left. So, he took the next turning to the left which was ILLEGAL and everything ended with a bang.
"And about insulin--" Dad said to Mom.
"STOP STOP STOP!!!!" Mom exclaimed to the taxi driver.
*bang*
The taxi driver had a collision with another car by the side rear. We quickly paid the taxi driver and scurried off back into the hotel to avoid being the witness for both drivers.


We reached the hotel at about 11.05am and we hurriedly went back to Ayer Itam for an appointment with my grandmother. We picked her up from her house and drove to Kinta Lane to view some furniture in Meiko. While viewing the furniture, I saw a generic version of an Ikea chair. My grandmother eventually purchased a television cabinet for the new house. By 1.20pm, we left the furniture shop and headed to Lorong Selamat. There, we ate Char Kuey Teow, Lo Bak, Ais Kacang and Otak-Otak. While eating lunch, a lady came by and started distributing meat floss (Bak Hoo) while rapping in Hokkien in a very amusing and entertaining way. It rhymes very well and its featured in Youtube HERE. After lunch, we headed back to the car but I somewhat forgotten something, my shades. I quickly ran back to the shop and got back my shades from the waitress. (Thought I lost them for good.. Thank God)


We went back to Ayer Itam, lazed around the house which is so hot. My dad and I decided to take a drive to Batu Ferrringhi to purchase some Banana Fritters. I knocked out in the car since I'm very sleepy. Once I got up, we've reached our destination. We bought some banana fritters and Tnee Kuih (a slice of Kuih Bakul sandwiched with sweet potato and yam which is deep-fried to perfection). Both banana fritter and Tnee Kuih were absolutely delicious. My dad then drove to Seri Tanjung Penang, a housing estate which is located beside the sea. After linguring around the area, we headed back to Ayer Itam. There, we fetched my mom back to the hotel.


At 6.00pm, we freshened up in the hotel and went down to the lobby to meet Aunty Audrey for dinner. In the process of waiting, we bumped into my dad's group of friends. When Aunty Audrey arrived, we departed for Kimberly Street. We ate Kuey Chap as the main course, a plate of duck meat as the side dish, Almond Soup and Lotus Seed Soup as the dessert. It started pouring while the 4 of us were having a conversation about one of our dearest 'cousin'.


At 8.00pm, we left the place, dropped Aunty Audrey back to the carpark where she parked her car and drove to New World Park and sat in Starbucks since he is a Starbucks Coffee biggest fan. At 10.00pm, we left the place and head back to the hotel. We were lucky to get the LAST parking lot in the hotel basement. My dad went to visit his friend on the 9th floor and was invited to go for a drink with him. They both happily went out for a drink while my mom and myself are in the hotel room. Mom reading her Shin Chan manga while I'm on the laptop finishing this post up. XD Sadly, no Nasi Beratur for us. Thought of having it but Aunty Audrey is too tired to bring us out. Oh well, at least I get to cool down in the hotel room.

Well, I'm off to MouseHunt-ing and MythMonger-ing on Facebook. See ya~
