Pictures from Yan Trip

It felt good to be able to get out of the office and do some work related traveling, but it feels better to be home. This trip to Yan was slightly longer than my usual. By the third day, I was missing everyone at home, and can't wait to hit the road heading South. Maybe dah tua kot...dah malas nak gi outstation lama-lama. Maybe juga dah tak tahan dengan kerenah client yang at times, memerlukan banyak kesabaran. I don't know; there are just so many things jumbled in my head.

Anyway, here are some pictures taken during the trip. Banyak yang boleh dibuat reflections, and banyak yang bring about the question - "what if??"

Yan Kecil during evening "rush" home, hardly any queue.

This was probably the busiest that it ever got

Heading home after a hard days work?

We could have stayed here. But the resort was up on Gunung Jerai. According to our supervisor, the route up was "belok-belok macam kat Camerons". Ohh tak pe lah....

So instead, we stayed at this homestay (nothing wrong with the signage, it was me who kind of had vertigo and wasn't able to get my level straight..heh..heh)

Should you need new curtains, place your order here. Was so tempted to do so. But I wondered if they could have curtains ready in one or two days.

The best thing about Yan - food is so, so cheap!! This nasi lemak was only 50cents. No way can we get such a delight in the Klang Valley. I wasn't much of a rice in the morning person. I opted for my usual - the roti canai. Roti canai was 60cents yah and local kuehs were only 20cents and soooo sedap!! There were 7 of us, we all had roti canai, some had nasi lemak on top of the roti plus one round of local kueh. Our breakfast that morning was RM13.00. Haaaa......gulp that!! Drinks were included as well in that RM13.00. Explain this please!! Depa guna tepung yang sama, gula yg sama, susu pekat yg sama...tapi kenapa harga kita kat Klang Valley tak sama harga depa noo??

Haa...tu dia....nasi lemak tu comel saja!! Ada egg sepotong and ikan bilis plus sambal (sama je kan macam yang kat KL, tapi kenapa harga tak sama?? Jenuh dok pikiaq!!)

Jenahak Tiga Rasa...yummmyyy!!

Our dinner on the 1st night was at Tanjung Dawai, Yan. We asked the homestay owner of a good place to go for dinner. He said, "Pi makan di Tanjung Dawai." Then we asked for directions from the Tuan Haji (dia yang bagi tau suruh panggil dia - Tuan Haji). He said, "Jalan seterait (straight), ikut jalan tu sampai habih, lepas tu konar kanan, sampai la Tanjung Dawai". We mati-mati thought it was like 10 mins drive to the end of the road and turn right and we'd get to the dinner place. Rupa-rupa nyerr....huh, it was a good half hour drive. The jalan "seterait" wasn't really straight. There were sharp turns along the way. But it was dark, we couldn't see much what was the surrounding like.

Tom Yam sea food with lots of crabs. Cholesterol ?? What's that? Alien??

All in all we paid Rm150 for the six dishes we had. There were 7 of us. I told the team, "Makan je, no need to compare. Rezeki jangan di tolak."
