Amazed by Kuching...


This year, has truly been a Cuti-Cuti year for me...

This time around it's Kuching, Sarawak with the Family..

While waiting for the plane..

It is my first time in Sarawak and my expectations were pretty standard..

Magnificent Rejang river

I was so SURE that it is still covered with jungle and forest..

Was all Gung-Ho about it...

And boy, I was so wrong.....

It is a well-developed City, even the airport is better than LCCT..

Awesome weather!

We arrived on the second day of Hari Raya Aidilfitri..

Upon arrival, we were rushed to open houses, Kuching-style.

Good thing i came prepared with Baju Kurung..

Nevertheless, i still feel out of place...

---___---

People here celebrate Raya with full on Baju Melayu and Baju Kurung during the first 7 days..

Everyone, literally EVERYONE from adults to kids, have their gear on till morning to midnight..

Wow! That's a change..

my favourite Dolphin cookies..

On the next day, we were off to Serikin Market, which is the border of Indonesia for a bit of shopping..

About an hour drive from the town..

Feerio and his Truck..

I was so busy feasting my eyes and i forgot to snap pictures...

Duh..typical me...

Loving the Caramel Machiato

Trying out the Bing! coffee place..

Nice and cosy place with Grrreat coffee!

Mama, Papa, Hazeeq & Ieda

The infamous Kuching Top Spot Seafood

A MUST try..

Suri, Firdaus, Miyuy, Syifa & Fir

On the forth day, we went to Sarawak Cultural Village.

A must visit when you are in Kuching.

It's a good place to learn about the ethnics in Sarawak.

Bidayuh, Melanau, Iban, Orang Ulu, Penan, Melayu, Cina



Scary looking stairways..

Wonder how long they need to practice for this..

Part of the show...

I am so in love with the women's motive on their clothing

Us  in Kuching

May look easy to pass through, but it takes a lot of courage..seriously..

in between bridges

Hello from the famous Rainforest Festival Hall..

Papa was so drawn by the musical instrument

Very cool looking dewan..

Suri & Papa clowning around

Fir, Orang Penan and Me..

Heard this is the best Kek Lapis place but all were sold out during our visit

SShhhh!!! They are getting married this coming March 2014

Another new family member in Haji Ghani's family....

The trip of 5D4N in Kuching went off too quickly..

I am already missing it's calmness..

Wanna Go again someday..
