The Transporter 2

wOOt!!!
it's a pretty hot saturday afternoon...and im left all alone at home...where did everybody go!!!...i have a feeling my parents n sis are out having lunch without me...darn..

ah well...

last tuesday i went for a short trip to lawas and KK...it was kinda fun...too bad Dad cant join us. okay...the trip from limbang to lawas would take an estimated time of 1 hour 30 mins...depending on the traffic at the ferry points and immigration checkpoints...i've done it under 1 hr 15 mins. then...from lawas to KK...would be about 3 hours plus...thats when you drive an average of 90 km/h...

Spent the nite in lawas at my aunt's house in kampung as the plan was to depart to KK the next morning...for a daytrip only since Mum had a limited budget hehehe...and my cuzs would be coming with us to KK. got the flu...cos of the airconditioner...yeah...i still cant sleep in an airconditioned room without getting the flu the next morning...crap....

the next morning at 6.42 am...we departed kampung to KK...arrived in the city about 10 am...not bad...didnt drive really fast...observed the speed limit and all..hehe...had lunch at this chinese market or something...looked abit ceridak lah the whole place...but im fine with that...then we went separate ways...Mum and the girls went to the clothing and kain shops...while me n my cuz davin went 'sightseeing' ...at the end of the day...i bought 3 pairs of emilio valentino shirts hehehehe..yeah i feel rich!!!...but then i got em on huge discounts lah..hahaha..

on the way back to lawas...we discovered that KK/Sabahan drivers really sucked and have little driving manners...to the extent of cramping the emergency lane when there was an accident about 500m infront...making the flow of traffic slower...and also preventing the ambulance from reaching the accident site...that was the suckiest part...

arrived back in Limbang about 1.30pm on the first day of hari raya hehehe...with a bad flu and strained feet due to the long distance driving...

here are some pics taken by me during the trip...as always using my ever-reliable Sony Ericsson T630 handphone...hehehe..it is a crappy camera phone...but still i love it to bits!!!


Brunei immigration checkpoint at the Brunei-Lawas border...this blue unser kept popping up overtaking us more than once when i dun remember overtaking it...weird...

kampung at lawas...this is one of the walking paths built around the kampung...the pink house would be my aunt's place...and the one after it in the background is grandparents'

the jetty!!!..hehe..the place i used to play when i came here as a lil kid...jumping in the river and all that...nowadays looking in the river freaks me out...hahaha

the jetty from a different angle...Sungai Lawas at the background

didnt take much pics in KK...this is at the coast in the city...lotsa boats ferrying people to nearby islands...

one of the shopkeepers at the Filipino Market...full of handicrafts and stuffs like that...
