AirAsia Macau Trip: The House of Dancing Water

October 26, 2013 – 1:54 pm

Part: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5

…continued from previous post.

Woohooo Dancing Water Show.

Got my ticket. ^^ The entrance fee cost around RM300 if not mistaken. Imitating Chingy’s #ChingHandProject where she will hold something with her hand and took a photo over a white background.

She very against about it tho saying it’s copyrighted.

Honestly I have no idea what show is this about and I didn’t went and research/read about it on the internet either. From what I heard from my friend, it’s a very interesting show.

but at least I know the show gonna have water as the stage XD

After a while.. the show started..

with a fisherman on a bamboo raft..who proceed to fall into the stage/water/pool .. then

Lots of smoke were blow over the water stage..

and…

a Ship came out of the middle of the stage. FUWAAAAAHHHHH!!!!! OAO

with many humans on it!!

What is this cat sorcery??!!!

After a while, the ship sank…

and a giraffe came out OAO!!

The background also have changed into a rainforest.

Then, the water is gone!!

And it’s back again with hanging human disco ball!!!

And the pool became smaller!! Fountains came out! from the stage!

A small chinese hut thingy pop up in the middle of the stage!!!

There were stuff coming in and out and people were dancing in and outside of the water.

maybe because I have no expectation and thought it was just a normal dancing show in a water stage. So please go without expectation, and best without knowing anything will come out from the stage.

Oh wait… too late. lol

Dinner time

After that show, we went for our last meal of the day!!

From left to right:

– Tofu Red Bean salad thingy??

– Jellyfish salad.

– Braised Meat Soup that you put overnight in the fridge that turned into jelly thingy. LOL

Left -> Right:

– Sweet sour chicken with spring onions and dried chillies. 😐 There’s more spring onions that meat tho.

– Super plain normal fried rice.

– Fruits!! Sweet Juicy Fruits I like!!

Peking duck (skin)! Very crispy !! 😀 <3 niceee

Can’t remember what is this but it is very similar to our oat/malt chicken.

Sichuan Spicy fish!! Spiciness still acceptable. Probably, because they have reduced it for us. I’m like “Whyyy we’re Malaysian, we can eat spicy food. LOL”

Oh ya, we had vege too. I didn’t took a photo of it because I don’t eat vege but here’s a drawing of it.

Well, it’s something.

Lastly, some warm water to wash all the food down. 😀

We ends our trip by walking all the way back to our hotel, doing some sight seeing along the way.

Too bad my phone and camera dies on me and I couldn’t snap anymore photos. 🙁

Sampan Ride Across the Sarawak River

September 2, 2013 – 5:10 pm

So I brought Haru to ride a sampan.

Sampan = Wooden boat

Okay, we didn’t really landed on the lost island of Dinosaur but silly Haru really went and replied the Boat uncle “Yes” and nodded even though he doesn’t understand what the uncle just asked. 😐

Luckily, we ended up at the right port and village.

SARAWAK LANGUAGE

In Sarawak, there’s a dialect/language called Sarawak Language or Sarawak Malay. It’s spoken widely by local especially the natives, and non natives who hang out with natives a lot. Lol.

Here’s some example of words, to give you an idea how it would sounds like..

Kamek – Me / I
Kitak – You
Sidak – Them
Nya – He / She
Kamek orang – We
Asuk – Dog
Pusak – Cat
Manok – Chicken
Ya – That
Tok – This
Sitok – Here
Sia – There
Aok – Yes
Sik – No
Kali – Maybe
etc…

So how to communicate in Sarawak? Speak English or Malay. 😛

Pak Tambang (Uncle Sampan Service)

Kuching City is divided by a river.

Although there are bridges across the river but there is one traditional and famous local way to travel across the river.

That is via the sampan service, Pak Tambang which fetches people across the river in a small boat for only 50 cents. Many times cheaper than driving all the way across the bridges.

This sampan service has been exist and operating since Brooke Era which is like more than 100 years ago.

I do not have photos from 100 years ago but this is the photo probably 40-50 years ago. The little boat on the right is the Pak Tambang. It’s quite a rare chance to ride a wooden boat these days especially in the cities of Malaysia.

Do have a try if you’re here before they face extinction when the government build the Golden Bridge over it. Oh, the best Layered Cake is located opposite too, another reason for you to cross the river hahaha.
