Belaga : Driving Through the Hills

I watched sunrise from inside the bus. Its beautiful.




It took 12 hours frm Kuching to Bintulu in bus. I didn't have a nice sleep. There's always interruptions (stops, custom checkings, ppl getting down half way), grrr. To make it worse, i had a back ache and a butt ache after sitting for too long..

From Bintulu to Belaga, its another 3 and a half hours. O.O more 15 and a half hours on the road in total!

But i survived! I was glad to be in Belaga after that. I was a bit nauseous frm the long journey.

Belaga is a small place with a few landmarks. Dad say its good to come here if u want to relax. But i am not very used to it. And started to miss Kuching and the people there.:-p and of course i missed mango as well.



























CNY at Belaga is a bit quiet. Since most of the Chinese went to Miri/ Sibu/ etc to celebrate their CNY.

The actual visiting i did was on first day only.



Luckily Belaga still got leng chai to see..mmm..



See, leng chai bor?



leng chai @ belaga


On the 2nd day of CNY, we went to this place called 'long ang mo' ??, not sure the actual name though.

Its like Matang, only the water is murkier. And there lots of insects that were feasting on your blood. My legs were so itchy. I had to surpress myself frm scratching them, so that i won't leave any ugly scars.

But soon it rained. :-D! It was funny for us to walk under the rain, towards the car. With mum squealing, asking me to cover myself.LOL.

My cousin, not willing to let me take her photo because she was soaking wet. :-D

And soon, its time to go home..



Its almost 10am, but still foggy.
My lunch at Farley, Bintulu.

Its Beef mee, but the 'beef' is white color and DO NOT taste a bit like beef, i even questioned the cook, and she insists its beef. hmmm *rub chin*



BTW, it wasn't nice at all.

The ang tao peng (red bean with ice) tasted much better.



Oh, how i missed Kuching's food. I think its the best in whole Msia, I've been to Penang and still think Kch has the best hawker food around.

which place has the best hawker food? It all depends on individuals.
One man's meat might be another man's poison :D
