Santubong

This is what happened between timeline: 2:00pm (December 07th, 2007) until 1:00pm (December 08th, 2007).

My family, my cousins, their family, and I went to Santubong for two days, one night getaway trip. We stayed at the JKR's resthouse since my cousin's father work for the JKR. Nice... How come being a teacher does not have this privillege??

When we got there...

High tide. Swimming = no no. :(

So, we decided to play with the boomerang. Ok, not WE. My cousins actually. My cousins who are in Kuching.. well, all of them are guys. I'm the only girl. No wonder I grow up to be tomboy-ish. Never the less, it's fun growing up with them! "P Then, it happens. The boomerang was stuck in the tree.

Notice the boomerang??

Few tries of throwing stones, shoe and even the mop (government property), the boomerang finally decided to come down to the ground. The story doesn't end there. They joked about the first one but when the second incident happened, everyone went berserk. Everyone's laughing their mouth off! Even my uncle! The boomerang flew to the roof. There's no way we can climb there! Bye-bye to the boomerang. "P

Note: Throwing boomerang is harder than it looks. Especially this three-sided boomerang. Looks like we'll have to go Australia for another boomerang. That sounds nice... ^^

When it's low tide, we decided to take a walk on the beach. Now then we see the beach!! Yippie!

How marvellous is God creation? ^^ Simply beatiful.

I caught this candid moment. Looks like something bit my brother's leg. Don't worry, it's harmless. It's just a crab. ^^

Around evening, the boys went for crab/fish/prawn hunting. They'll catch anything that moves in the water.

How did we spent the night? By playing blackjack! My gosh, it's not Chinese New Year! We have tons of fun playing though. I can still recall my brother's reaction when I got blackjack in a row. Luckily he didn't poke a hole through the wall with his head. ^^

The next day,

It's low tide in the morning with cold breeze. Who needs air-cond? The beach streched until Damai Golf and Resort. We walked until the end just to swim. There's even dogs around, waiting for visitors to feed them. This one was laying down, getting some sun bath. It's not dead. "P

Around 1pm, after packing, cleaning and throwing the rubbish away, we were ready to head home.

Before leaving, we took this photo for rememberance. It's really been a long time since the last time we had a getaway like this! Thanks Uncle for the trip and thanks God for the lovely weather! ^^

Oh ya, when we got back, the boys moved the fish and crabs to the aquarium of about half meter deep chlorinated water. Sadly, an hour later, the fish and crabs went K.O. Poor creatures!
