Pontianak II

Luckily mr hubby has a friend who stays in Pontianak so he gave us the direction and a very accurate one too. So we didn't have problems finding our way because they didn't have enough signs we could rely on...

Here are some of the things we saw throughout our journey of about 250km from Kuching to Pontianak..

This is the first thing that we saw after the border... kat sini mana ada cam ni kan?... Ada lagi actually yg nampak anjing naik moto, bawak ba alip ba ya dgn moto.(bukan idup punya dah mati ... x tau la nk juai ka nak buat kenduri ka)... tapi x sempat nak snap pic sebab dlm kete begerak... mana nak jadi co driver, nak layan budak2 tu nak minum la nak susu la nak makan la nak tisu la... nak ambik gamba lagi... so u just have to trust me..hihihi

This is one of the town we passed through on our way... ada la 2 pekan kot but they look the same.. mcm ni jer we didn't stop pun... nak cepat sampai ...

These are the kids coming home from school... saja ja uniform diorang lain so ambik la gamba... tapi ada gak yg rasa sedih bila tgk... budak2 ni jalan kaki nak balik umah tak pakai kasut... imagine panas tghari jln atas jln x pakai kasut... maybe sebab x nak kasut cepat haus..These are the things we want our children to see and ambik iktibar... masa ni la we'll tell Atiqah what it means to be thankful for what we have

Ni mr. hubby yg suh ambik... so i dont know what to say about it... but seeing this mr.hubby told me something i didn't know before about Hitler... which was quite a surprise.. maklumlah saya x minat sejarah.

Sawah padi tapi x bnyak pun

we had to drive through this dirt road for about 2km.. jalan ni tengah buat... if we were to go there again maybe by that time dah siap la kot

lepas dirt road tu jln berbatu2 ni plak... but both are in the 2km range...

ni pulak stesen minyak diorang...hahahaha mesti x caya kan... actually the sign says kiosk... yg mcm ni jer la ada sepanjang jalan... stesyen minyak yg proper mcm petronas ke shell ke, ade tapi kat sepanjang jalan ni x bnyak... theirs is called Pertamina... kalau x salah ada la dlm 2/3 jer kot tu pun tutup. We were told minyak kat sini slalu x cukup sebab tu stesen minyak slalu tutup jer sebab org2 kampung beli n buat mcm ni la. Kalau beli kt sini mahal sikit la dari kt stesen minyak betul... sikit jer.. x bnyak.. tapi kat Pontianak ada la bnyak stesen minyak Pertamina tu... sebab tu la kena isi minyak penuh2 masa kat border....

ni saja la nak compare bahasa jer... kereta belajar memandu diorang.... tapi x banyak sebab sana banyak motor...  boon siew masuk sini memang kaya gilaaaaa... serius kat bandar pontianak tu motor penuh jalan... if we were to move there i think i won't be able to drive... dah la moto penuh jalan pastu bawak suka hati diorang jer... x terkira dah brapa kali ter 'aish', 'ish', 'eh' everytime we go somewhere... seriau, rasa mcm nak kena langar jer...  

Finally, after about nearly 7 hours drive, sampai juak kami ke bandar Pontianak... ni ler pintu gerbang yg menyambut kedatangan kami sekeluarga...time difference sini ngan kuching is 1 hour... late... so sini lagi cepat la gelap... kul 5.30 dah maghrib...

lagi gambar pintu gerbang... this is the main road... we went straight to mr hubby's friend house... for safety and privacy reasons tak dapek la nak post gamba umah diorang... tapi yg bestnya tuan umah x de pun masa kami sampai ni... diorang ade urusan dan hanya pulang mlm tu. So kitorang lepak2 jer ptg tu kat umah... tuan umah dah tinggalkan kunci ye..bukan kami main pecah masuk jer...Driver pun nak recharge energy after long drive... lepas maghrib we went out to the nearest shooping mall that we saw along the main road... tu jer yg rasa senang nak ingat jalan pegi n balik.. after dinner balik umah trus n not long after that tuan umah pun balik ...
