Another morning breakfast and this time, it's off to Carpenter Street Kim Joo kolo mee. One spot where you don't need to queue up to get the best 'cheng' kolo mee in Carpenter Street. Two bowls of kosong mee and a big bowl of ingredients costs about RM10. But, it's all worth for the taste.

Aaron tagged along today as we headed to Sarawak Cultural Village...and wow! The entrance fee is RM60! Lucky for us, we have our student ID so it's only RM15 per entry. *phew* Yeap, the tour begins. First, the Bidayuh longhouse and then to our daddy's Iban longhouse...very educational.The performances started at 11.30am and ended at about 12.15pm. We continued the tour after the performances and the one part that I love most is the orang ulu man, Francis playing sape (an electronic sape). We waited for about an hour just to listen to him playing and it was all worth the wait.

We had our light lunch in the car before leaving to Santubong beach. All the resorts are now closed to public-guests only. I took a ride to Santubong village and walah! found a nice beach to go for...but...it was low tide and the water was far far away from the beach. We walked and reached the water and took a 100m sprint back to the car. 'Why did we do that?' 'I have no idea'. But, it was fun!
We got back home and went out for dinner with Tiffany at Jalan Song. Our first attempt to try the new Pork Burger was a disappointment because it was closed. So went to Expert Food Court and ordered from the stalls.
Day 4 (31.12.07)
New Year eve! We had to come home by 3.30pm to get dinner ready, so it was not much of a far exploration for the day. Breakfast...Rex's Laksa (my favourite laksa stall). Sarawak Museum was our first stop. Around the museum was the Aquarium and the Tugu Pahlawan and Summer House. Couldn't take any pictures inside the museum *sad* but it was another educational trip.
...kueh chap, shrimp & chicken wantan, glutinous rice ball, fried char kueh...

We then went over to Cats' Museum, paid RM5 for a camera and there, Catherine finds here families...of cats! wahahahah... yeap! the must-go place in Kuching.

We had another series of late lunch at Kaya Toast in Central Park before packing Sunny Hill ice-cream home. New Year eve dinner was at home with my family - steamboat, satay crab, prawn salad, fried chicken and ngo hiam and a bottle of wine.
and...we were off to party at The Links @ Civic Center for New Year eve. Paid RM60 for entrance fee and stayed over midnight there. Although the crowd was not much, but music was great, a glass of Blue Margarita each with beers. It was a great New Year eve countdown...at least not the traditional way; as said by Catherine "Turn on the radio...3...2...1...Happy New Year! Turn off the radio...sleep.
