Ice and 'Bak'

" Outing does not always need to be going to expensive places. Sometimes, it is best if we go to old places, explore together, and simply have fun that way. "

Have you tried going on an outing without any specific aim? This happened to me last Friday, when my sister and i were rather free as we were still holidaying. I called my aunt to join us, knowing that she too may be free. And so we planned for a Sunway-trip together.

We met at my aunt's house and Colin was there too. Excitedly, the four of us embarked on our journey to Sunway. We had brunch at a coffee shop outside Sunway Pyramid and the Sarawak Mee was delicious- if only i had not taken my breakfast earlier that morning. After the if-i-hadn't-eaten-my-breakfast meal, my sister and i tried ice skating. Finally. I have always wanted to try ice skating and it was enjoyable. For weekdays, it's priced at RM 13 per entry.

Can't wait to skate!

Since it was our first time ice skating (we roller-skated before), we decided to hold on to the sides to get the hang of it. Moving precariously at the far end.

After that, yeah, i can ice-skate- the brown shirt figure in high speed is me!

I'm proud of myself...

... because i did not fall onto the ice, not even once!

After having a wonderful time on the ice, we decided to leave and rejoined my aunt and my cousin. Over an ice-cream cone, we discussed what was our next move. There weren't many good movies these days. Entering the theme park about 3 felt like a waste. An absolute no shopping day. Fortunately, as we licked our final ice cream, it was set for an unexpected road trip to Klang.

It was terribly fun-voyage of the four Kuala Lumpurians. It has been many years ago since we went to Klang. We followed road signs and asked several people for directions. Famously known for it's Bak Kut Teh, we opened our eyes to any of the shops in the town area. But to our surprise, we couldn't find many. Weird.

We continued on driving in Klang. And indeed driving in circles! After almost giving up on the hunt for Bak Kut Teh, we gave in to return to the first shop we saw, that if we can return that way. Colin was, at that moment, adamant to have his Bak Kut Teh.

Our voyage was a success- we found a Bak Kut Teh restaurant and we headed for it. Our stomach were craving noisily for Bak Kut Teh.

Yay-ing to ourselves! Time to devour the pot clean.

The Bak Kut Teh was succulent. The meat was tender. The oil rice was tasty. The meal was fulfilling and satisfying! No doubt, Klang has nice Bak Kut Teh. After dinner, we returned to SJ and rested before heading for 'yum-cha' at Sri Melur. Then we drove back home.

The outing was fun and surely we'll have it once more. I'll be planning for an all-cousin outing soon, hopefully during my next break! Til then wc09 wonders the fun ride.
