Halo!! It has been a long time i didn't update my blog. Sorry to keep u guys waiting. We just came back from Kuching, Malaysia for a short holiday. Not that short actually is about 6days. We are having lots of fun there.
We went there as a big group, total 7 adult and 3 children. My family, Pik Yin & his bro Wei Jian and Tracy's family. We've a friend (Mien) in Kuching so more a less she has prepared for us like places to eat, things to do and places for sightseeing. I didn't take much photo from my own camera. Most of the time we are asking Sei Lou (PY's bro) to take for us.

2nd Day
We've to wake up early in the morning. 8am we need to gather in the lobby to start of our van journey to Batang Ai. On the road for 4 hours follow by boat ride 15mins. The journey is worth because Batang Ai is very beautiful. See it yours! This is the place where we stay. Hilton Batang Ai. Late afternoon we went for jungle tracking. This is the most challenging part as we brought Braden along. Up hill, down hill and crossing a most scary bridge.
Day 3
After breakfast we start of our journey by this long sampan to the real longhouse where the Iban people still staying there. During the journey was wonderful. Water is clear, clean and cooling. We all enjoyed the ride very much and exciting over it.
After that we move on our 45mins boat ride to waterfall. Braden take this opportunity to take a short nap. Luckily the weather are not too hot. He was using his cap to cover his face and knock off. We had our traditional Iban cook food as a lunch. The tour guide actually bring all the raw meat, rice n vegetable to the waterfall. He will cook for us while we are enjoying and playing with the waterfall water. The water was so cold and clean. Once our meal is ready, we are asked to go makan. This is the nicest meal that i ever enjoyed. We ate chicken, wild boar, fish, 2 veggie and wrapped rice. Yummy yummy!!!
