My Holiday to Kuching - Day 2

I wake up to a phone call. It was from Tommy who called. Since he woke me up, I got ready and when Merlye knock on my door, I'm set to go out ^_^
First thing we did was had lunch which was Colok Mee ^_^ Yummy!!! After lunch, we went to shop for pottery. The pots here are cheap. I bought myself a so called stationary set and a "Cat" cup ^_^ I bought some souvenirs for my colleagues too ^_^ After shoping, we head off to Jo's Crocodile Farm. Ah Jo came and join us with Juliana. Umm...this crocodile farm do not belong to Ah Jo but so happen they have the same name ^_^
We reach there and took picture with the Legendary Crocodile statue. Oh My...the statue is made of stone and when I sat one it, ouch!!! It's hot!!! After some photo session with the crocodile, Ah Jo arrive in his Hilux. Hahaha...We need Ah Jo to get some discount but failed. It seems that there is a price difference for local and visitors. Even the IC has an initial to show whether they are local or visitor. Hmmm....Unfortunately for Merlye, after being married and stayed there for 2 years, they take her as a visitor. Besides that, she needs a Visa to stay there =.=
Once inside, I took a lot of pictures especially during the jumping crocodile show where the crocodile jump to eat their meal which is half the chicken hanging on a string. Hahaha... It was amazing and the crocodiles are scary. The trip was cut short as it started to drizzle. Merlye and Geoffrey went off first as Merlye wanted to have her hair wash and blow. We then head off in Ah Jo's big monster truck to meet them in Ray's. At Ray's, I suddenly have the itch to trim my hair and got my hair trim by no other the Director, Mr Ray himself ^_^ Hahaha...never had I receive such VIP treatment before ^_^
After the nice hair cut, we head back to rest before dinner. Let me think what I had for dinner. Ooo...went to Taman Letak Kereta food court. Hahaha...cute name right. It was there we had a nice dinner. There are seafood place outside the store for you to choose. I think it can be consider a seafood paradise ^_^ They have this special vegetable call Bilin@Paku Pakis. Unfortunately they finish it before we can order so no Bilin for us. But the food that was ordered is delicious.
After the nice dinner, we went to the opposite side of the river to the Malay Kampung to get Kuih Lapis @ Traditional Layer Cake. There are so many variety where we can test before buying them. I bought 2 boxes for myself and one more for King. Hahaha...me, Merlye and Senan pick it for him as he called thinking Woon Shen is with us and ask for souvenir ^_^ Unfortunately Woon Shen couldn't join us as he had to go off-shore for work =.= After getting the kuih, we meet up with Merlye's other friends at Starbucks and have a nice drink and chat ^_^ It was bout midnight when we went back to rest.
