Day 2
walked to Jesselton Fort wic 1km from our hotel..well,taking taxi will cost rm20 is not worth it coz 1km is near n rm20 4 a km is jus FAAAARRRR TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Expensive!
y we walked to Jesselton Fort????? we r going to Manukan Island on that day! hav to take the boat wic cost rm20 per person...a very BURUK boat wit so called life jacket yang sudah koyak rabak! if ayah knew bout it..im DEAD! coz one his rules are..NO BOAT,NO FERRY, NO BEACH, NO MANDI2 n NO HIKING are allowed during da trip! *sorry ayah*
Manukan Island is a very beautiful island...crystal clear water..my frens say dey saw colourful fishes when snorkelling ( didnt snorkle or mandi laut...*ayah's rule..:(* )
stayed at Manukan Island 4 5hours...relaxing...snapping picture..jumping..:)
On the same day..we did A LOT of SHOPPING! we went to all types of market existed in Kota Kinabalu park...bought souvenirs for families n close frens..kerepeks..ikan bilis..sotong kering....*im getting good in bargaining! clap2!! :)*
Day 3
went to Mount Kinabalu park..juz at the base ONLY! haha...went there wit rental van (wit a driver oso..)..snapped a lot of pic! the base of mount kinabalu is cold! u dun need aircond or even fan in ur house!!!
after that we straight went to POring Hot Spring! :) b4 we can hit the hot spring...jewel brought us to canopy walk wic really challengd ruhil n nad's stamina..hahaha...(macam mana korg nak pergi buat adventurous activites nih? )..n YES! dey managed to finish the trail..*clap2*
ruhil was soooo afraid of height...she tried to smile but we can see she's faking it..welldone ruhil..u overcome ur fear! :)
at last..after a long canopy walk...we can enjoy the Hot spring!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i like to rendam myself in a hot water....relaxing..n the easiest way to burn FAT!!!!!!!!!!! haha....but to all! make sure u rehydrate urself after enjoying ur hot spring moment..coz i nearly fainted ( massive water lost!)
then we head back to KK...almost all of us fallen asleep otw back...a very tired day...yup! (2hours driving to Mount Kinabalu..1hour driving to Poring Hot Spring)n that nite...we decided to eat seafood!!! my most FAV nite!!!!!! seafood nite!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! haha....i luv seafood!!! n im a big eater! thats a FACT! :) eating seafood in Sabah is very very very cheap...8people eating juz cost us rm136! if in semenanjung? rm5oo the least!
Day 4
last day in KK..not much stuff to tell as most of us were very tired..i wanted to go 4 more sight seeing..but going on seprate ways or asked my tired frens to tag along arent good idea...
so,i juz 4llow the group decision to go airport early..
n guess wat we found out? the flight has been DELAYED for 50minutes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! wat???????????????????????????????????? so,we strandd at the airport 4 4hours...lepaking in the surau...shopping in the duty free shop....n yup..da flight delayd another 30minutes..:( ha!! but..a dose of starbucks really make things RIGHT! :))
as usual..we the HYPER group cant keep our mouth shut in the plane...as usual we make a lot of noise! hahaha.....cant help it..thats happen when all girls touring..lots of stuff to talk n laugh bout...:) did i mention we get airbus 4 our flight back to KLIA???????????? yup!! airbus!!! big one!!! *sewel*
arrivd at KLIA at 9.30pm...alone..luckily zac is free n can pick me up from KLIA..if NOT i have to take ERL ,KTM n TAXI...reachd home,lights all off..gate lockd..textd eja to open the gate..guess wat she said? " nape angah balik awal sangat? sume ingt angah balik esok!!"
i was...hA!!!!!!!!!!!!!! no wonder nobody from home calld asking when is my flight..how am i going back to seremban? wat time i arrive? *pity me the abandoned child*
overall, i had a great time in Sabah..would like to come again in the future...like people always said..Tak puas lagi berjalan! haha...:) thanx nad's house 4 allowing me to join in ur house trip..:)

thats all..THE END! :)
