mee-ree

-Me @ Miri Airport. Looking all tired but with the emphatic smile-

Miri was the last destination of my working trip to the Borneo for the month of September. It was my first time to the land of hornbills but unfortunately I see non of them. The place was so much better compared to my previous trip to Tawau as Miri is the birthplace of Malaysia's petroleum industry, which also remains the major industry of the city. It was another working trip so I did not really have the chance to tour around. I wanted to go to the national parks one loh. ie the Mulu National Park and the Niah Caves.
Thou, I went to this secluded place called Marina Bay in the evening for dinner. The sea and the wind give me an impression of the O.C. Too bad I missed the sunset. It was a really romantic place and I can be very sure that you will be captivated by the charm and beauty of that place. Aww...

-Marina Bay-

-Marina Bay Restaurant. It is like a big mansion with amazing cravings. The place was crazily awesome but because it was quite dark when I went there, I cant have really good shoots.


Well in order for you to get a better idea of the awesomeness of that place, I got some pictures online to show you. Apparently, it is better to go during the day or in the evening, whenever there is still sunlight.

Just before the dinner, my co-workers and I went driving around and we spotted this:
Angelina Jolie's look-a-like resident. I want a house like this. Imagine yourself waking up every morning facing the sea, sitting on your rottan swing enjoying your cuppa of tea, smoking pot opps, and et cetera. How wonderful life is?

We also drove ourselves aimlessly. We reached a hotel called I cant remember and we instantly regretted the hotel that we checked in at another place. I cant remember hotel is situated next to the sea, where you can see a lot of mini pine trees by the beach. The pine trees are so cute that I decided to take a picture of myself with them. And here you go, Penny and the Pines.


That's all for now. Till then.

Wish everyone a wonderful Raya Holiday. Though, some can't be bothered.
