My x boss and cols asked me to join them to go boating and fishing. Dunno i was conned or that the plot was accidently lost in translation, i heard we were going in a big boat and just gonna sit and relax in the boat for a coupla hours while the men did the fishing (i imagined sipping champagne too!) and then enjoyed a seafood spread at land....not bad, right, the picture tat was painted....
So for the 2nd consecutive day, I woke up at 6.30 am (i woke up 6.30 the day before and went to the hill at TTDI for a hike. Tera ler....) and proceeded to join the boss and cols at Jalan Ipoh, a crowd of supposedly 10plus ppl withered to only about 5, the rest ffked.....
The hosts for the day was Mr. Wong and family, who invited boss for the trip. We reached Bkt Jugra (very near KL, after Banting) about 8.30 and had these for breakfast :-
Claypot siew yoke and bittergourd soup, Big assed prawns and fish, with rice. The color turned out funny in the pics, but they were fresh and delish, like only kampung food can be....
That's boss, his wife and Mrs. Wong...
Mey, who just had Lasik last month, said she can kap chai more efficiently now..
Then, later we proceeded to the jetty and waited for our boatman. Time to camwhore, coz nothing to do...the other ppl there gave us funny looks coz we cityslickers, wearing superstars sunnies, shorts n shortsleeved tops out to sea...should've bailed by that time.
Nice pic, this, taken by boss..
off we went....turned out to be a speedboat! No shade! (Needless to say, no champagne as well) and only 6 of us went, us 3 girls, boss, Mr. Wong and boatman, who is Mr. Wong's bil.
met other fishermen and chit chat bout the weather, the catch, etc...they seemed amused to see pelancong.
A makeshift shade was put up later, thank god! But i put on my extra protective layer...:-)
Mr. Wong, left out in the sun....
The catch! Turned out we're only catching prawns...
After about 2 hours at the sea, the water started turning choppy, and i started to turn green...begged them to go back to land.....Luckily we did...
We had o-chian, which is omelette with clams later on...very nice....coz the clams are those small ones, i hate big clams which are gooey... We had some nice hokkien mee also but no pics of that..
Later on we headed to Mr. Wong's father in law's house, they reared some kois and kailos (if i rmb correctly), they are the black ones, but i was educated that actually they have tints of green, blue or red if observed carefully. A favourite of chinese bizmen, it seems, bring luck..
Boss sleeping peacefully.
They grow their own dragonfruit too!
Sweet!!
Then we had fresh coconut juice! Yummehhhhh
Mr. Wong's son.
No straw, had to utilise the power of suction....;-P
Eat the flesh too...
Back of the hse, where some durian trees can be seen... i love goin to kampung houses!
I makan and tapaoed some umbra too! Very beh paiseh one...
They sold this by the roadside, i bot one RM 9 the biggest. Dunno wat melon... Had some last nite, not as nice as i thought..not worth the price..
came back with a burnt nose...
