belated Kuching Trip 29/11/07-03/12-07
hehe.. I know it's abit too late to blog about this trip. Sorry la.. I have got no time! Busy with stuffs, you know.. It's holiday period now, busy with sleeping, watching tv, eating and having fun!! LOLS!!
Anyway, nothing much special bout this trip.. have been to Kuching several times as it is pretty close to Pontianak where my hometown is.. But, oh.. My first time stayed at the Crowne Plaza Hotel..



We went to a crocodile farm located at the outer part of Kuching city near the Tebedu, the boundary of Sarawak and Pontianak. There are hundreds of thousands of crocodiles there!! They are ranging from the tiny new born babies to unbelievebly huge great great grandfathers! At certain timing, the people-in-charged will feed the crocodiles. We can see how they struggle and fight each other to get the food vigorously..=.=!!


The image above is taken at Kuching Cat Museum. The museum has all you want to know about cats and the history behind the city, such as how the city got it's name and also about the legend of the Mount Santubong located next to it.

Next destination is the Sarawak Cultural Village. We can see houses of the different ethnics of Sarawak. According to our guide, it used to be a complex where the different ethnics stayed. Later, the government sort of bought the land from them and made it one of the tourist attractions in Kuching.













We also watched the cultural shows presented by the locals showing the different dances of the ethnic groups. After that, we headed back to the city to the Satok weekend market but it was already closed when we reached. So, we headed back to hotel to take a rest.. My friend, Harry who was also having holiday in Kuching later asked us out.. Didn't go many places in Kuching due to the bad weather. The rain poured the city almost everyday!! =.=!!

Time to go back to Singapore taking Malaysia Airlines MH0678.. Bon Voyage Kuching..
