What a wonderful day

Today is very special day indeed, me and my friends from Low Yat Dot Net Forum Xavier, Cheryl, Steph, Calvin and 2kia went for a day outing in Ipoh. We started our day meeting at my house at 6am before departing to Ipoh. Reached there at around 830am we start our first event... DIM SUM!!!
This is the place where Cheryl brought us to.
The DIM SUM there is very nice and also expensive.

After breakfast we then proceed to visit some of the cave temples which Ipoh is famous for. There are a lot of beautiful limestone caves which is home to several Buddhist Temple. The first temple we visited is
Kek Lok Tong. Its a very big limestone cave that i've visited.

The inner part of the cave is very huge and the limestone formation is also very beautiful. Imagine it took million of years for the stones to be shaped.

The interesting part bout this cave is that there's a very huge landscape just after u walk to the end of the cave.
The exit of the cave

The landscape outside of the cave is really breathtaking. Its like a garden surrounded by mountains.

The center of the garden is a big pond fill with fishes and tortoises. And also lotus plant. I finally manage to make used of my cam's macro mode and take a few shots of lotus.
Beautiful lotus

Well i wont go and cover all the caves we went to it gonna take forever and im a bit lazy :p
According to Cheryl Ipoh people don't go to those caves coz they think that its very normal only. Yala.. if anyone ask me to go to Kek Lok Si in Penang i will give the same answer hehe.

Well after visiting the caves we went to Kopitiam and a biscuit shop to get some 'Heong Peah' , Chicken Biscuit.

We then head to Cheryl's house for a rest before go to have some quick food at a nearby stall where it sell Fried Yong Tau Foo. Yup fried not cooked.
Yum Yum, Yong tau foo, popiah, laksa!!

At last we went to our final place of visit which is "The Lost World of Tambun" thank god indeed coz it wasnt hot that day instead its raining a bit but who cares we gonna get wet anyway :p

Its was soooooo packed with people even the floats are sold out. And to get into the ride take like forever wanted to line up. Yeah we come at the wrong time. Its Saturday and i notice there's a lot of company organizing their family day. Stephanie was the happiest, coz that day finally her dream of going to a water park bcome real :p

We all have a splashing great time there although there was full of people it didnt wipe our spirit to have fun. Watch a Tiger show those big kitties are cute but i dont want them as pet lol. Stephanie and I went for 2 ride the first i almost make her face bcome pancake when my feet clamp her face. Sorry bout that dear :p treat u lecka lecka next time hehe.

Well we have fun in the rain in the park for almost 3 hours b4 packing and heading home. Cheryl didnt follow us back coz she wanna go back her house.

Our plan b4 really heading home was to go to Serdang, Kedah for a char moi (fried porridge) as our dinner. I say... the journey to that place is very scary especially at night coz the road dont have even a single light. But when we reach there and ate the food it was worth all the trouble. The porridge was soo nice... we even order chui keh(FROG!!), fried egg, and a fish.. some of the foods i duno wad its called :p


Well the event was officially ended after the dinner at serdang. We reach back at my place and everyone parted to their cars and went home.

It was a wonderful day for me coz its the first time i went out so far with a bunch of great friends whom i known for just a few months from LYN forum. Hopefully i'll get more events so i can post it here to share it out.
