A Quick Eat & Relax Trip - Home Town

Date:  May 27, 2012

We took FireFly from Budget Airport back to Ipoh on Friday.  It's going to be a quick trip back to hometown - Setiawan.  This trip's highlight is the Teluk Batik beach.  The kids just had their lesson on the ocean creatures and beach a couple weeks ago.  So, they were wondering, what does a beach looks like?  We explained Sentosa to them, then they argue... "But Sentosa has no wave..."  We blur... so, we decided to show the kids what does a real beach looks like...  But first, let's see what we eat... :)

It's a good thing to pack all your cloths into a small luggage bag so that Kay Kay can help to push in the airport.

As what I mentioned in the caption - Eat & Relax.  We stop by a 芽菜鸡 coffee shop.  Chicken is a bit old, but the taste is there.

Especially the bean sprouts.  Fat & juicy.

From Ipoh to Setiawan, it is about 1.5 hours drive.  By the time we reach Grandma place, is already at night time.

Next day, we have this for breakfast.  Grandma special prawn biscuits.

At noon, we had at least 2-3 types of fresh fish, plus Jay Jay's favorites.  Clams...

Out of his imaginations... Jay Jay build a fish out of these new toys.  First time I see him doing a fish though.

That afternoon, we dropped by Teluk Batik, one of the more famous beach in Lumut.  Of course, if you willing to spent the money and time to take the ferry to Pangkok Island, of course there have nicer beach.

But, this beach looks nice too.

There are 4 to 5 companies there renting their banana boat.  It costs about RM5 per pax on the banana boat.

The greatest activity on the beach is to build sand castle or any sand thingy...

IMG_7923.jpg

There are also people renting the chair too.  I think it is RM4 per seat.  So, we rented four.

First 10 minutes, Kay Kay just sitting on the beach chair.  Grandma have to play with him, and bring sand to him.

IMG_7930.jpg

Of course, Jay Jay already hit the water front with his cousins.

IMG_7931.jpg

Building castle, got washed away.  Building castel... got washed away again.  "This is what I called big wave", Jay said.

IMG_7933.jpg

Jay look!  Banana boat!

IMG_7934.jpg

HaHaHaHa... Banana boat...

IMG_7935.jpg

Oh!  No!  All the people fell down into the water.  From the banana boat.  No No No.  I don't want to sit on a banana boat.

IMG_7936.jpg

Meanwhile... during the 2nd 10 minutes.. Kay Kay started to sit down on the mattress and playing the sand...

IMG_7944.jpg

3rd 10 minutes... He started to walk down to the beach at the water front there...

IMG_7951.jpg

Finally a big cheeky smile on his face... OK... Sand and water are not too bad at all, Kay thought.

IMG_7952.jpg

Kay Kay looking at his koko playing with cousins...

IMG_7954.jpg

And Jay Jay has now stepped his foot into the water to bring in more wet sand for the sculpture.

IMG_7958.jpg

The kids were busy, but we don't klnow what exactly they were building...

IMG_7959.jpg

Then, come the education time... writing his name on the beach...

IMG_7960.jpg

Almost done....

IMG_7964.jpg

Hey you naughty water...

IMG_7965.jpg

The 4th 10 minutes, Kay Kay already used to the sand, and he too building something that is unknown to all of us...

IMG_7967.jpg

And he also playing with the mover too.

IMG_7971.jpg

OK Kay Kay, let mummy show you want is a WAVE.  This is a WAVE.  A huge WAVE....

IMG_7976.jpg

Eh Eh... mummy, I don't like WAVE...

IMG_7977.jpg

My pants are wet!  And there gone the pants.

IMG_7987.jpg

Let's get more water for the kids...

IMG_7990.jpg

Sun is setting soon...

IMG_7995.jpg

The kids are hungry already.

IMG_8003.jpg

I love the beach.

IMG_7998.jpg

Next we came to Lumut, and wanted to eat on this war ship.

IMG_8004.jpg

It is a war ship open for people to visit in the day time... and at night after 8:30pm, they open as a restaurant serving western food.

IMG_8005.jpg

This is a war ship that has already been retired for some time...

IMG_8006.jpg

Let's go to the play ground and wait for the war ship restaurant to open.

IMG_8008.jpg

It's quite a big playground here...

IMG_8025.jpg

那些年,我们一起看战舰!

IMG_8031.JPG

We can't possibly wait for the War Ship restaurant to open, as all of us already exhausted and hungry.  So, Jay Jay get to eat an ABC (Air Batu Campur)... which is basically ice kacang...

IMG_8034.jpg

More good food in the morning...

IMG_8038.jpg

The kids saw a lot of baffalo on our way to airport.

IMG_8045.JPG

A whole journey of coconut trees...

IMG_8046.jpg

And finally, we are at the airport.  And our eat and relax trip ended.

Lesson from the trip... Ocean, beach, sands....
