DAY 2 - January 22, 2013
assalamualaikum and whaddup!
gotta wake up extra early because uncle joe had to catch the traffic rush to his office.
we followed him there because we promised to meet at 7am for our trip to kundasang!
yyyeeepp.. 7 am lah sangattt.. they arrived around 9.30 am.
so uncle joe brought us to the nearby cafe for breakfast. we ordered baked beans an egg!
my favorito!
despite the american breakfast we had, check this out:

| the new american way to spell service i guess |
the scenery along the way to kundasang was superb!
can't capture much on my crappy phone though. but roza's new htc phone ada banyak!
heheh..
and also sofia's dslr.

| it's the peak of the highest mountain in southeast asia! |

| camwhoring in the car is a must! |
we didnt use the car aircond because they have aircond outside! it was sooooooo cold that i actually shivered. fresh air i tell you! until a truck passed by. =='
our first stop was the kinabalu park to see a clearer view of the kinabalu peak. roza said that this is the point where all the hikers start hiking up the mountain.

| the peak shy shy cat pulak... |
next stop: strawberry garden! the entrance was only RM1.
unfortunately there were no strawberries. we entered just because roza told me there were flowers inside.
orchids specifically.
and i get super excited and agreed to go inside.
to find out there were no orchids. =='

| imagine this with red ripe strawberries.... |
from the strawberry garden, we went to the war memorial park.
well its a memorial park so lotsa memorial stuff? i just knew that sabah was once dijajah by australian.
i didnt really take much photos with my phone there because sofia, my roomate while i was in labuan brought her dslr so most of the photos are still with her.

oh ya.. as we arrive at the memorial park, there were one group of good looking guys. they were saying "KL" when we passed by.
im not sure whether they thought we were from KL or they were trying to tell us they're from KL because they have the KL slang.
from the memorial park we went to Desa Cattle where we met Ann, also my roomate in labuan. memang janji nak jumpa cos she lives in Ranau which is not so far away from kundasang.

| moo! |

| baa! |
we were super hungry so we went to meet Eric, Ann's friend and also Kele, my negihbour back in labuan.
after the superb lunch, we proceeded to Tagal Luanti.
it's one of the main attraction in Ranau.
a must-go-place if you come to Ranau.
Sofia told me that we were going for a fish massage.
but she forgot to tell me the size of the fish that's gonna "massage" us.
it's as big as my arm i tell you!
i didn't dare to get in.
no.
NEVER.
then we went to Sabah Tea plantation. that's where they plant, and process the tasty Sabah Tea. duh~
and then we were hungry again and we went to Mama Cafe for an early dinner.
Eric and Kele created a new religion where they recited their prayer (before meal) by snapping photos of the food.
hahah!
Eric made me think of the people in Africa who can't afford to buy food because i didn't finish mine.
sorry but i was just too full.
we hung out for a while before leaving to our lodge house we rented earlier. it was located a few steps away from Poring Hot Spring.
we slept very early that night because we were very tired from the long day we had earlier. you know what, we didn't need to switch on the fan or aircond because the fresh air outside cools the room entirely.
phew! what a long day.. looking forward for the next day!
xoxo,
-FF-
