My hands still smell of DURIANS

Friday was slow-paced and enjoyable. I had a lovely time at ECP, cycling leisurely with WH, enjoying the sea breeze and bitching about fellow park-users. Haha. Mad & ZK showed up SOON after and joined us in our journey to the ends of the park & back. The two chicken nehs nehs cant BRAKE, although they have about 1 year of experience. WTH. Anyway, the 'highlight' of the trip was probably Mad's spectacular face-first fall from rollerblading. WH & I werent around to witness her fall, but it was another of those no-reason accidents. That poor girl got a BIG Bruise with Bloody abrasions on her forehead, as well as other scrapes on her elbows, knees & palms. AIYOHHHHHH. I had some Aloe Vera Gel to the rescue, I hope she gets better asap.

Then, Brent drove us to ADAM ROAD Food Centre to meet our beloved Sweeny & Huiting for dinner. Charlotte & Sally joined us soon enough. Ivy & Nissa, as usual MIA-ed. Haha, nevertheless it was cool having those BBQed Stingrays & Crayfishes. Satays, Nasi Lemak & Hokkien Mee, with gelato at Island Creamery to top it all off. FYI, the boss there is rather mean & unfriendly. Plus, Im soooo overwhelmed by the popularity of the place. It was literally OVERFLOWING with people under 20(especially uniformed ones) on a Friday night. Gosh...

Well, I showed up at Le Meridien for Saturday's JB Durian & shopping trip. It was hardcore makaning alright. Lemme recall what I've ingested within a day.

Breakfast: 1 slice of papaya, 1 kiwi fruit, 1 square of redbean pancake, 1 packet of Hersey's candied kisses, 1 plate of some assorted Yong Tau Foo pieces
Lunch: random durians pieces from many many many different durians, total amount would be approximately equal to 2 whole Durians? Plus about 10 mangosteens & copious amount of water after that.
Tea: 1 can of this top-selling canned Liang Teh & 1 Crunchy Chocolate Donut from Dunkin` Donuts!
Dinner: Rice with watercress soup, 2 plates of chinese mixed vegetable dishes, roast chicken, sweet & sour fish, oat-prawns, a pathetic-looking chilli crab & finally a platter of fruit.
Our table ate like a swarm of hungry ghosts & I still think its an understatement. Haha.

FYI, I really hate getting on the bus, getting off the bus, going through the customs TIMES 4. Grr. It's a big inconvenience. But the weather didnt help, it was really wet, and we didnt bring umbrellas. At the same time, we were all tired and hungry. We finally had some fishball noodles for breakfast, which was overpriced & mediocre. I had my fill of TAU SAR PIAH after breaksfast though. I looove itttt!!! So after that, we browsed Mr Sotong for sotong products (duh), & headed towards the Durian Plantation in Perkannas.

I managed a bed out of the seats.
Tiao Kah!

Durian Plantation

Durians!

Rambutan trees!

They displayed their wares!

Duriansssssssssssss.
MANY MANY MANY durians.

Finally, its a decent looking durian which is bittersweet!
They wont open fresh durians, until we finish the opened durians.

We were in JUSCO and then chilling out after walking around.
We were at the kopitiam which sold Ipoh Coffee.
And this baby girl just fell asleep in the shopping cart turned cot!

The most adorable things sold in GIANT.

I loveeeee this cat.

This is the place which we had our seafood dinner.
The place had a lovely ambience at night,
But the food was mediocre.
The chilli crab was pathetic.
So small i didnt bear to eat it.
