Kota Kinabalu Day 2 | 11 February 2008

It was day 2 in Kota Kinabalu!
This was the place where we stayed in day 1 before we headed to the Mount Kinabalu. Huhu, first time staying in Backpackers and it was a real awkward kind of feeling as u have to stay with strangers!! And we called the stranger Justin's "bedmate" cause their beds were just near to each other. Hahaha...



We had our breakfast here before we left to the mountain. Look at my sort of pathetic food. Bihun with tauhu.. haha.



Me and Nicole choosing our favorite food... I miss her so much when I'm no longer "together" with her... Anyway, we will always be friends forever!



While waiting for the van that will bring us to the kaki gunung....
Justin posing at the coffee shop..



Me waiting boredly outside of the coffee shop..



These guys were enjoyed playing their favorite chinese chess...



And all of us taking a group photo!! These were the numbers that will be part of the expedition!



I was promoting my Kampung Adidas climbing shoes with Nicole..haha. Well, this shoe is really reliable and good! If you wanna climb Mount KK, don't spend your money buying any other sportshoes that worth RM100-200 (u will definitely throw it away when the day ends), in fact, this RM6.50 Kampung Adidas shoes will serve you better!



The Bread Story in KK...



Me, Canny and Jenny....



Finally, we were all on the way to the mountain.. yahooO!!!
Along the journey... Oh no, it's raining season in KK!









We reached Kinabalu Park after 1 hour + of journey. The atmosphere here was bone-chilling and everyone took out their thicky jackets.. haha.



Pretty excited when I saw this certificate! Anyway, check it out whether I managed to climb to the peak!! :P



Waiting at Sutera Sanctuary Lodges to get our registration done for the climb on the next day!





The Trail Map of Mount Kinabalu! Great.. isn't it? It looks easy to conquer the mountain, but.. try it and you will know how challenging it is! It does not only require a good stamina, but, it does require an ultimate determination and motivation! Else, you will die halfway.. sounds scary tho. Ehe..



In this group pic, everyone looks fresh, excited, enjoy, active....
But, after the expedition.... will show you the pic later. Hehe...



Thanks to the rain that we had to dress up like green robin hood... lol. Please agree with me that everyone here looked like big fat penguins.. haha.



And this was the place we gonna stay for one night before we begin our expedition tmr!



The girl's room.... it was real cold and this hostel can save on fan/aircond.




Huhu.. guess most of our meals in Mount KK should rely on Maggis.. The food there was freaking expensive. RM15 for one normal fried rice with mix vege and yet it was tasteless? That was crazy @%$.




After lunch around 3pm, we rested at the lobby...



And.. dinner time!



At least, meals at Kinabalu Park is still acceptable. This ginger chicken rice worth RM7. At least it does not exceed RM10...





Day 2 ended with some briefing from Calvin and Kevin Yong, preparing us for the climbing expedition the next day!!
