Day 3 - Alor Setar, Kedah, Malaysia
Today is the day we say goodbye to CY and his mum. He brought us to handmade Wan Tan Mee. Niceeee.
We took a shaky bus to Simpang Kuala. Hi Yen Ruen! YR waited at the bus stop with his MyVi. Dizzy after getting down from The Shaky.
The kuih here are very unique and delicious. There are Kuih Talam and all those soft kuih like usual and also special ones like fried green beans kuih and fried glutinous rice with coconut slices. I never expect fried glutinous rice to be so nice. Honestly the appearance and first impression is really not that good to me ~.~
Along the way we saw paddy field. It is like paddy field everywhere even in town area. So GREEN.
Paddy Museum charges RM5 per entry and we did not get in because of time factor. But YRdid show us photos. It. Is. So. Cool. A display in 360 degree like you are experiencing the actual life in a farm.
We then headed to Gua Keriang. We go into the homestay area but they are under renovation so we left. We circulated the cave just to check for the entrance. We managed to find the entrance no long. I got so excited staring at the words GUA GUNUNG KERIANG on the hill itself, hollywood-like-font.
We drove nearer to round around the cave, and guess what we found... Baby Goats! Oh man, goats with horn! Sweet holy brown horny goat.
This cave is meant to let people walk around but we are too naughty to drive with petrol. If you like nature you should get a pair of shoes and explore this thing with your own feet.
Town. Vincent suggest a really wild idea, that is to go fishing the next day. So here we are at a pet store! We get ourselves fishing equipment: wires, hooks, floats and baits. Yeah we have no pole but who cares anyway =P
We are at home for the evening. So happy I can finally get a peaceful and quiet nap. When i wake up, guess what, YR grandma had already finish preparing dinner! The dishes are nice and the taste are so rich. I can never cook this well! We ended the night with How I Met Your Mother.
