Miri (Part One)

By boogahloo

Warning: Post contains lotsa pictures. Don’t complain.

I’m gonna put up a new category in this blog, where i’ll post all about my mini ‘cuti-cuti Malaysia’ trip. (no money to travel oversea see.. so over-the-sea only). Thanks (and no thanks) to ah-ky and the nature of his job, i get to travel alot around Malaysia, and within these 1-2 years, to the east of the country mostly. Over-the-sea indeed.

~flying Miri~

The latest trip was my complimentary birthday flight to Miri. Though this is my second time there in the span of 6 months, it was fun nevertheless. In fact this time was more fun ’cause first, finally we get to fly together and secondly it’s my virgin flight with MAS! (GASP! yes, i’m SO ‘mountain turtle’) and last but not least it was my birthday ‘week’ :D

flying together!

touched down

We took the last flight (i think) thus reaching Miri quite late. I don’t mind a bit.. cuz i love flying. what more not alone this time around :P and I got someone to compete Sudoku with throughout the journey, AND it’s for a getaway! Upon reaching, we get to see the whole of Miri at night, bird-eye. i love :)

Get our luggage and off we head for Miri Marriott (try pronouncing this.. it’s fun to say Miri Marriott.. haha.. go on, try it!) hehe. Oh, before going straight to Marriott where we’ll be staying, we went to get his rented car, parked at another hotel, then to the hyper mart nearby to shop for some snacks, juice and cup noodles :P (standard procedures). When we finally reached Marriott, it was already about midnight. The room we got this time wasn’t those facing the sea but the garden/tennis court. Not too bad and overall, I LOVE staying here. :) Highly recommended! What I really uber-ly loved is the number of pillows they provide. Whopping 8 pillows!! All feather pillows! Shiok! :)

Miri Marriott!

Every morning will be sleeping in till around 10ish then head for breakkie alone cuz the mister goes to work and i ate my brunch till late. heh. then it’ll be just lounging around the lobby, walking around by the sea, snapping away senseless pics and.. urm.. just lazing around. Nothing beats having nothing to do but just enjoying your day and finding things to fill in :P so it kinda explains the below pics all around the hotel. enjoy lar ya.

one of my favourite-est shot :D

After a few hours out and about shooting nice nothings, it will be ‘gaming’ time. heh. Playing what some called the ‘brainless games’ over and over the whole of afternoon until he comes back from work is actually very time ‘fulfilling’ lor hehe. And when he ‘balik’ from work, we will hang around the balcony to marvel at the beeuuuutiful sunset, then dinner, then more TV, then another day. There’ll be more sunset pics to come. Hope you all are not bored yet :P

    Crap I really really need to be going to such nice places like this. My vacation thus far are dismal when compared to yours:

    1. June 2008 – 5 day work working vacation to Langkawi
    2. April 2007 – 3 day vacation at Redang
    3. and that’s all …

    Sigh…..

    jasraj: Redang and Langkawi are much nicer wot. just that the pics you took are with your eyes, stored in your brain mar. ;) The places we visit are always much nicer when you have someone to share with innit? i still remember every single bit of our Redang trip with the whole group of crazies :P so much fun!

    Hey Hye,

    Agree with you that if you go Miri, you must stay in Mariott! I stayed in Mariott too during my trip there last week (business la… not leisure)… But can’t get as many pictures as you do. =)

    And thumbs up for the nice picture. *huggie*
