Malaysia Trip 2012 - In Kota Kinabalu (Sabah)

During the trip, my sister's family as well as me and Joe + my brother, we went to Kota Kinabalu in Sabah for 4 days 3 nights. It was lovely the first two days, but then I got a cold on third day~ what a shame~~ Anyway, We had a lovely seafoods and visited the wonderful Manukan Island, we did snorkeling too; however, seems like the fish not many as it was~




View from the airplane and Zoe always naughty~


When we arrived Shangri La Hotel, we went to had lunch at nearby Malay cafe,and I ordered a Lemon Chicken Rice~ Taste not bad!




The next day, we went to Manukan island early in the morning.







Lunch at the restaurant in Manukan Island, I ordered a Manukan Fried Rice, the price was really expensive there, it cost RM 22. No choice, as there is the only restaurant there.


And this is the Sabah famous vege, I am not sure how to call it in English, but perhaps you just say Sabah Vege will do. In Chinese, it called 沙巴粟仔菜。


Then we went to have seafoods at night at one of the most popular seafood restaurant in KK, Welcome seafood restaurant, 大茄来海鲜～ and It was one of the best meal we had in KK. And the price was reasonable, as they wouldn't charge you more because you are a traveler. So quite safe to have dinner there if you ever visit KK and looking for nice seafoods~

Rapid Bay - Fishing Day

These series was taken last Saturday. It was a lovely sunny day,therefore we decided to do some fishing at Rapid Bay,South Australia. As I never been to Rapid Bay before, so I took the chance and did some photography as well. It wasn't much to photograph unfortunately, but anyway, our main focus was to do some fishing or squidding.

There were quite a few people doing fishing there too,as Rapid Bay is one of the famous fishing location at South Australia. However, we didn't caught anything at the end. We were just a beginner in fishing so need to get some lessons first. But other people there seems like didn't get much/no fish neither.

It wasn't too bad at all, as we had some fun there and at least, I able to captured some scenery at Rapid Bay.

Following is some information about Rapid Bay.



"Nestled between a long sandy beach and towering cliffs, Rapid Bay is 105 kilometres south of Adelaide and reached by a steeply descending road from the main Normanville-Cape Jervis Road.

Here you'll find an important South Australian landmark - a boulder on which Colonel Light carved his initials after he first stepped ashore. It's reported that he said "I have hardly seen a place I like better".

Rapid Bay was named after the brig HMS Rapid in which Colonel Light and his staff came to South Australia, discovering Rapid Bay in 1830 en route to Glenelg. The HMAS Hobart was scuttled off Rapid Bay in November 2002 which has created an even more exciting dive experience for dive enthusiasts.

See more of the Fleurieu Peninsula – a coastal playground famed for its laidback lifestyle, beach breaks for surfers of all levels of experience, and top fishing spots.

It's a paradise for divers and snorkellers, with dramatic shipwrecks and stunning marine life, including the famed Leafy Seadragon.

Enjoy some of the best produce and vineyards in Australia. The Fleurieu Peninsula is home to some prestigious winemaking regions, including McLaren Vale. The history of winemaking in this region goes all the way back to 1842, and it consistently produces some of the best drops you'll ever taste.

There's also national parks, golf courses, top quality cuisine and more."
