RAINY DAY AND GOOD FOOD

I had planned to hike Gunung Pulai 2 this morning together with two friends. On the way to our meeting point ,I picked up one friend and  stop by at our regular coffee shop.
 I sent a message of whatsApp to find where she was and since she was still a long way to our meeting point,  we order our breakfast .Then suddenly it rained. We waited a while for the rain to stopped.Well it did not stopped completely, it was still dizzing ,we paid up and droved to our meeting place.We were debating whether to carry or to abort our hike. As we were already there might as well we proceed to our destination and who knows the rain might stop once we reached there, but no such luck rather we had worst luck. The place was closed.  Gunung Pulai 1 is just around the corner and that seems to be a logical choice and so off we went. A quick check on the water which was murky does not appeal to us. We had read enough and heard enough whenever that happen it means there is chances of flash flood occurring.Since my friend that came later did not had a breakfast and she was craving for Bak Kut Teh,so we aborted our hike and head to another town nearby.  we had bakut teh ,eel , ginger chicken and a vegetable and the bill came to around rm38.90 which was quite reasonable.  On the way back  we stopped by a durian store and had some by the roadside.  Today we did not burn any calories,but instead put on more. Well blame it on the rain.

  2. caroline,
    surprisingly
    there are people who don't actually likes durian. just can't figure them out. lol. my friend says it is better to eat by the road side, as the seller as a way of making a triangle cut and when we press , seems ok. once we take them home most of it are either unripe or too soakgy.
