On the Island of Borneo- Day 2 & 3

Day 2 in Miri, we woke up early for breakfast and then we had around 2 hours to ourselves to explore our hotel!

Jo and I thought that we get to at least hang out at the beach a little but god knows there is no beach at the hotel ==” There is only the sea and a lot of rocks lol

DSC02085Just like in this picture, just blue skies, sea and rocks…

DSC02075Cant really do much there, so we just took a little walk and snapped some pictures. Then we headed back to our room and watched TV hahah

DSC02104We were given a disposable camera so that we can take pictures during our day tour in MIRI. Once I got the camera I was like, “How do I know if it’s ON?” 

14SBJazzFestMiriResize-0143It never stopped us from taking selfies even though there is no front camera or flip
up screen! “I think should be able to fit everyone la, just squeeze abit can edi! Ready 1, 2, 3”

Our first stop was a picnic by the beach! The Strongbow team did a great job preparing the picnic for us! There were fruits, juices, pasta, salad and Strongbow of cox..

DSC02111They prepared my favorite cherries and jambu!

Me and City gal!

DSC02106Besides that, there were some local biscuits too! The Strongbow team was like, we prepared towels just in case anyone decides to go for a swim haha

I dragged City Gal out to take a jumping shot at the beach because JO refused to go with me. Now I know why I got so tanned after this trip ==”

14SBJazzFestMiriResize-018314SBJazzFestMiriResize-0185The end result was super awesome though! Like a real photoshoot man!

Jo being super anti social and camera shy hahaha. #notabloggerproblem

Our second destination was to Chop Chin Leong, a local Chinese bakery. It’s like when you go to Penang, you buy dao sa bia.

DSC02147

There is a lot of potential for photoshoots in the shop! Everything looks so retro and cool!

DSC02148Look at the amount of biscuits they produce everyday and they handmake each and everyone of them!!!

DSC02150This aunty is wrapping up 6 biscuits into a paper wrapper.

While everyone was busy buying biscuits, I did a little photoshoot hahah

DSC02162Kuih Lapis! You can order it in the bakery then pick them up at the airport before leaving. Very convenient and a awesome way to make sure it’s fresh and yummy!

DSC02165

Shopping spree at a local handicraft shop next lol.

I tried on this dart blower which was very cool!

DSC02172The reason why I’m the only one who got really tanned compare to the others … T__T
