Makan-makan to Ipoh and Kuala Kangsar

Drove down to Ipoh yesterday morning.

Reach Ipoh at about 9:00 am and spent 30 mins circling aroung to search for carpark! by this time, we were famished, as all of us didn't take any breakfast when we left Penang! Finally found one very closeby to the kopitian we wanted to go for Ipoh Kopi and toasted bread with Kaya! Yummy... Forgot to take any pics in our rush! One thing i learn is now only i understand why Ipoh ppl come to penang and order drinks with 1 ketul of ais! Their ketul of Ais is like 4 times the size of penang ais! Hahahaha!

Then we headed to buy egg tarts! and then bought Ipoh biscuits and then Ipoh Pomeloes, where all the leng luis wear Mini skirt. I really cannot understand the idea behind having like 20 shops, all selling the same stuff all grouped together! Can anyone tell me why is that? Well, anyway, i asked ST to stop at a shop with no lenglui as i only wanted to buys some cheap pomelos for my mum which is for me to eat, not that interested in lengluilah. Pity ST, he obliged.

Then we went searching for hotspring, couldn't find it, maybe like Uncle Hor said, Sunway have bought it up! After this, we went searching for another Hotspring cum waterfall which should be near Simpang Pulai that ST was there 10 years ago. Again, couldn't find it. Next, we went searching for Lata Kinjang Falls! Yup, the big falls you see along the NS Expressway! I got a bit bored halfway and started to be the irritating kid like in the Simpsons, by asking" Are we there yet?" constantly! Haha.. Poor ST and Irene has to tolerate me! Well, after a really long drive, we finally arrived at Lata Kinjang Falls! Happy us!




Played in the water for a while.... and ate our egg tart from Ipoh! MMS Ivan to show him where we were. We managed to find some nice rocks to sit on as the water gush down ... Nature's Jaccuzi!


Then we went for lunch, a place called big tree head, 大树头 。Lunch was Ok... lots of deep fried stuff, as seen here in the pics. You can really see the queue here.. actually, whenever you see a jam in Ipoh, you can be sure there's a good eating place nearby!


After lunch, we went to visit ST's mum, 2nd big sis, small sis, niece, nephews, 2nd sis's trading company, 2nd sis big big house! Oh ya, we saw, his poly, his college and later at Kuala Kangsar, we saw his primary school, secondary school, his big bro's house, his Granpa's house, his motorbike, his graduation pic, his big big family pic.... etc.... No visit to Ipoh is complete without visiting a cave or two, so we that's what we did.



Kuala Kangsar - wow, really impressed.. Very nice place! Beautiful bridge, magnificent mosque, and a very grand palace!

Dinner at Kuala Sepetang
Famished.. we ate in utter silence..... only when our stomach were half ful, we manged to talk! Haha! Well, the service was really really really slow. Food was good-lah.. but very cheap!

PS: meant to upload some pics here.. but keeps hanging... will try tomorrow!



PS2: meant to upload more pics, but line at home very slow... will try again tomorrow or the next daylah.
