down the memory lane

wan and i went to Kluang for some urusan. when it's done, we decided to go to Mersing since mersing used to be my "home" some 7 years ago.

so we travelled 114km from Kluang to Mersing via bumpy and not-at-all a straight road for about 1 and a half hour where we saw a few monkeys (with monyet jantan yang besar dan kelihatan garang) and the best part was, we saw a big wild boar crossing the road approximately 20metres in front of our car!!!

we passed MRSM MERSING, where i felt like coming home..hahah..i think i miss that place so much but i still have no intention to go back! no way!!!!

arriving at Mersing we went to KFC (the one and only KFC between 120km range via any road available!) for lunch. then i drove along the road and see the bus station near the tioman jetty, the hospital, hotel seri malaysia..all those places that i've been before, i showed to wan, telling many stories that i remember back in the old days..then we went to the famous pantai there, pantai air papan (that was the only pantai i know in mersing, i was hoping to see dolphins because when i went there many years ago, i saw a whole family of dolphins swimming near that pantai, but to no luck :-( ), took some pictures and on our way back, we stopped at some gerai and bought keropok lekor fresh (but Kuantan's keropok lekor is A LOT BETTER than Mersing's, Mersing punye lebih tepung, kurang isi ikan).

due to my carelessness i left my favourite and my most newest shirt in Kluang, so we had to go back to Kluang and picked it up., then we planned to hit the plus highway from Kluang, straight to KL..this was also to ensure that wan could get the toll receipt from Kluang entrance to Kajang exit, for claiming purposes. on our way back, we took the same road (obviously because there are no other road to Kluang other than that) and we saw another wild boar crossing the road in front of our car, this time about 10metres away, and this time it was anak wild boar because it was so tiny like piglet in winnie the pooh (but it was black and not pink! sad. but if it was pink, then it could not have been a boar but a pig kan? hehe)

the trip was so much fun, we really enjoyed ourselves but i was then attacked with stupid gastritis..such a spoiler isn't it?????? so wan drove me all the way to KL, then went back to putrajaya, i arrived at 11.40pm and went to sleep instantly. it's nice to have outstation job where we get to go on a sidetrip along the way and claim for the mileage. in such a case, if we do make a sidetrip, we only need to topup a little.!!
