Land Below The Wind II

Continue from last post, after arriving KKIA, we met our tour guide - Jackz Lee. He roughly explained to us our activities for Day 1. Oh ya, forgot to mention bout how KK looks like, all I can remember is the sea is very blue in color, shall come back one day for island hopping, or maybe scuba diving if I can afford in the futute. :) 

First destination was, filling our tummies with breakfast in Gaya Street, the infamous Fu Yuan Coffee Shop, with lots of choice. Jackz told us, the coffee and tea there is very nice, we tried, yeah, not bad. After that, we went to buy the left out stuffs from mount climbing, the windbreaker is so cheap over there, I should have bought it there. 

Okay, gonna start our trip as a tourist! First stop, to "Rumah Terbalik" on the way to Kundasang, yes, the house is exactly upside down. The weather is so hot on that day which gonna melt us. 

This is the Rumah Terbalik

Meet the gang! L-R: Uncle Teo, Jo, Yet, Siew, Beh, Me, SP, Mel 

Okay, done with Rumah Terbalik, we continued the journey. Ha, this time is makan time again, for the first time in my life, I tried wild boar meat. Not that bad after all, in fact I am in love with it! :P 

rice wine, tasty. 

quick! or u gonna miss it! 

m in love! 

So that was our lunch! Nom Nom Nom~~~

Next stop was Pekan Nabalu if not mistaken, where we could see the peak of mount KK. 

Too cloudy on that day, we could not see the peak clearly.

To experience New Zealand without flying there, you can opt for Kundasang Calf Farm. It has breathtaking scenary with Mount KK as background.  You can enjoy drinking the milk while watching the milk collecting process, though abit smelly la. 

This place nice no? 

Now I remember I missed out something, before departing to Calf Farm, we stopped by KK HQ Park for name tag checking and to shoe shop for Adidas Kampung shoes, which is highly recommended by Jackz for mount climbing. 

Happy feet?

I can be Adidas Kampung spoke person :) 

So basically, that was the first day of the trip. After dinner, Jackz gave us short briefing on mount climbing for the next morning. Kinda excited cos we are going to pay HER a visit! But at the same time, quite worried too, can I make it to the peak?
