holiday in kuching

Last weekend we went to Kuching. DH and I have been here several times but only once for a holiday and that was before Irfan was born. The rest of the visit were work related. This time we brought the whole family.

 After breakfast while waiting for the flight.
Alhamdulillah, selamat sampai Kuching. We took ataxi to our hotel, get our rooms and 15 minutes after that took a shuttle to Sarawak Cultural Village. We reached there at 1pm and had our lunch.
After lunch we went to the beach nearby. Dh was busy taking Irfan's photo
 the results..

 another one..
 A few minutes before 2pm opening, taking a short rest.
 we started with this....Irfan almost cried at the end of the bridge because some of it was quite unstable
First stop... rumah bidayuh..
 Passport stamping session...we gave them ours and ask them to be incharged with getting it stamp
 Masa naik tangga ni Irfan takut-takut sikit but still ok...
but cried masa turun probably because he doesn't know to maneuver his foot or probably gayat hehehe... This is what papa is for...

a welcome dance in Rumah Iban

 Rumah Penan
 Rumah Orang Ulu...top part...Irfan asked me to take photos and show it to him...he's not taking another of those stairs
Rumah Melayu...Irfan called this main ciku....hahaha...
 DH trying a hand in gasing
the cultural show...Orang Ulu dance


at the end of the show...everybody was invited to join the joget.. 

At night....choosing our dinner at Top Spot..prices varies, so survey all the gerai first

 ordered oyster egg...i didn't know what this is called initially, just told the server I wanted one of those big things..pointing to other people's plate.
lobster with cheese. We also ordered pucuk paku and ikan tiga rasa
after dinner we walk along the waterfront...batman club

the kids had gelato for dessert and DH had coffee for supper. Walk back to hotel and slept soundly...the next day we went to Bako.

Hi Ezlin, wow! I really enjoyed looking thru the pics here. I have always loved Sarawak. And its many different cultures, people.
I find the Orang Ulus, Bidayus, Dyaks all very interesting people.

Can see your kids having fun. Its good to let them experience this country. Better than learning thru books.
You and hubby looking good.
Best regards.
Lee.
