Anyway, we were in Kuching during the past weekend for a 2-night stay. I last went there 14 years ago. Not much changed except for more housing projects and shopping complexes.
We stayed at the new 360 hotel. It's only RM147 nett a night including breakfast for 2. The room is spacious and had a great view of the city.
On our first day, we joined a local tour to Cultural Village. This shot looks a little like a volcano on the edge of erupting.
Gan, standing in front of Rumah Cina in the village. Nothing fancy about this house.
Me, by Rumah Melayu. In this house, there was a man dressed in baju melayu performing a dance.
Rumah Orang Ulu. I never heard of Ulu tribe before, I think. Have I?
Gan went into the Ulu house and this is how it looks like.
Then there's a pedestrian bridge made of bamboo.
A moment later, there were cultural show for all visitors. The show lasted for about 30 minutes. It was OK.
Then there's a famous cats statues, in front of Holiday Inn and Crown Plaza Hotel. Though we stayed in 360 Hotel, but we had breakfast in Crown Plaza for free. Why so? :P
On our last night in Kuching, we had dinner in my uncle's house. We had seafood 9 tai kwai (9 dishes) for dinner. We only managed to squeeze 7 dishes on the dining table. We had to place the 2 other on another table.
Seen here are Gan and my little cousins: Joel, Julia and Daniel.
Everyone digged into the scrumptious meals. Seen here are Daniel, yi ma, popo and Uncle Albert. It's been awhile since my last 9 tai kwai. In the end, everyone was stuffed! Great way to end a short trip with family :)
