Trip to Miri

Ini pula adalah cerita tentang Miri.
Dah agak lapuk pun sebab asyik tak sempat je la aku nak nulis kat sini.

Anyway we went there last Dec.
Mak, Abah, aku and my little brother, Aish.
8 days 7 nights.
3rd until 10th of Dec to be exact.
My other brother, Boy tak ikut sebab dia baru grad and baru start keje time tu so takkan nak cuti lama-lama, kan.

Patutnya flight ke Miri pukul 1.30 tengahari tapi delay.
Last-last pukul 4 lebih la baru bertolak dari Senai.
Kalau aku tau baik cuti half day je aritu.

Pertama kalilah jejak kaki di bumi Sarawak ineh.
Konon-kononnya mau melawat tempat Angah.
My sis works at Bintulu. Nasib la. Orang Petronas kat ceruk mana-mana je la dia anto.

Anyway, sampai kat airport Miri dalam pukul 6 gitu dah macam pukul 8 malam.
Patut la slalu kalau aku call Angah time-time kul 9 lebih tu dia dah tido.
*hem hem trying to adjust with the time zone over here

Sampai-sampai sana, Angah takde lagi.
Patutnya mesti la tuan rumah yang nunggu tetamu kan.
Ni terbalik plak.
Half an hour later baru dia sampai dgn Lan, her fiancee.
Lan works at Miri, and time kitorang sampai tu dia baru balik keje, that's why la lambat sikit.




We stay for the night at this 2-rooms apartment at Imperial Hotel.
Agak best la sebab bawah tu adalah shopping complex.
Tempat makan pun senang nak cari sebab Lan memang keje situ so dia bawak kami ke tempat yang dia selalu pegi.
Makanan semenanjung.
And the brekfes kat restoran ujung tu pun sedap jugak.
Nasi lemak ayam golek.
nyam nyam.

Angah said tiap kali dia datang Miri mesti makan nasi lemak kat situ.
And memang tiap minggu pun dia turun Miri.
Kalau aku tak sanggup duhh...
250km tuu Miri - Bintulu.
Kejung aku dok dalam kete.

I have a few frens staying at Miri tapi takde pulak contact number. Kalau tak boleh jugak tanya-tanya mana tempat best kat sini, kan.




The first thing that we noticed about Miri is that, they lacked of signboard. Maksud aku, kalau kat Semenanjung kan banyak je signboard tulis berapa km dari sana ke sini.

Kat sini cam lansung takdelah.
Agak pelik.
Lalu kat highway macam jalan yang takde penghujung.
hem hem.

The next day we went to Miri town.
My sis shows us a few souvenir shops yang jual barang dgn harga yang agak murah and we plan to buy things on our next trip to Miri sebab petang tu kami dah nak ke Kota Kinabalu so takkan nak angkut barang banyak-banyak ke sana kan.

Then we went to Petroleum Science Museum which is situated on top of Canada Hill. Quite interesting la sebab both of us work in oil and gas company so bila nampak platforms fabricated by my company memang buat aku kagum la ^-^




Kat depan muzium tu ada monumen the Grand Old Lady.
It is the first oil well in Malaysia and it represents the petroleum history of Miri which is almost a century old. This oil well is no longer production and it has been declared a protected historical site by the Sarawak Government.

Kat belakang tu pulak ada observatory platform where visitors can have an excellent view of Miri city. People came to enjoy the scenery or jog on the well-designed path.

yep.

Pemandangan kat atas tu memang sangat bestlah.
Tapi memandangkan kami pergi waktu tengahari buta takde payung, tak sempat la nak menikmati sangat pemandangan kat situ.
hem hem.

Around 1pm, kami pulang ke hotel and bersiap-siap untuk ke airport.
Our flight to Kota Kinabalu will be at 3pm.

Okeh, sambung cerita lagi yeh.
Suda sangat menat.
Sekian.
