Once upon a time in Sibu - Day 1 -

As the express boat started it's engine at 8.30am sharp on a sunny 2 June 2006 morning, Sherlee, Jane & I was totally over excited as it has been years since I travelled by sea & it's the 1st time for Sherlee & Jane. Finding it quite cool to be able to go out to the top of the new Bahagia Ekspres boat that can load 300 passengers and not having too many peepz inside coz it's the 2nd day of Gawai & those who needs to go back to their home town must have been drunk at home since few days ago!

We took some videos & pictures when we were on board as the sea was so blue & the day was absolutely fine. Some englishs even had sun bathe under the afternoon sun!

Reached Sibu at 1.30pm & started to walk like chickens without head to find Hotel Bahagia which I stayed few years ago. Since Sibu is not a big city at all, we do not need a map to show us where we were. After we finally found the hotel, suprisingly it was an OK hotel as they renovated the whole 4 floor shop lot & the best thing is KFC is just next to the hotel & Star Cineplex or Cathay is just behind it... Yay~~~

On the way to the hotel.... I saw this so called ~The Machine that Droof~ by some RO water inthusiast. 1 litre for 20 cents.


We spent the whole day wondering around San Yang Shopping Complex (A mini version of KLCC & almost similiar to Boulevard Shopping Complex, Miri). I even had time to stop by a cyber cafe on 4th floor in the complex but the connection is worst than my house's connection.. RM3 per hour & went back to hotel for a quick shower at 6.30pm.

~Wisma San Yang~

After dinner at KFC, we hit the cineplex at 9.00pm to catch X-men. The movie is recommended. Not too suprising as the good guy always win but it's worth to watch coz the effect is really cool. The only thing I am really frustrated is that Cyclope died in the beginning part after Kissing Jane -_-lll no action or fight. We'll it's just a movie.

Headed back to the hotel at 10.30pm and after somewhat girls talk.... To the bed we go.... Nothing really interesting for entertainment here but if you are looking for relaxation... It's highly recomended.

I have a good feeling that I will be happy after this trip coz all the things seems to have BAHAGIA word on it (Bahagia = Happiness in Malaysian Language)

Sea Transport (To & Fro) = Bahagia Ekspres
Accommodation = Hotel Bahagia
Next to the hotel = Restaurant Bahagia

THE ONLY FUNNY THING ABOUT SIBU IS THE DRIVERS TEND TO HIT THE GAS WHEN THEY SEE PEDESTRIAN. IT'S A PRESSURE CROSSING THE ROAD THERE... EVEN A BICYCLIST WILL CYCLE FASTER WHEN THEY SEE YOU CROSSING THE ROAD. They just don't let you cross 1st!
