[kota kinabalu] day 2: borneo upside down house, mount kinabalu, desa dairy cattle farm

13/09/2015 (sunday)

we started the day early on our second and also last day here. first, we had breakfast at the nearby mcD. done with breakfast, we went straight to one of the famous tourist spot here in kk, rumah terbalik @ the upside down house. we are not allowed to take any pictures while touring inside the house. but we surely took a tons of pictures at the 3D wonder museum which also part of the attraction here.

our next destination of the day was really suggested by the worker at the upside down house. our original plan was once done with the upside down house, we wanted to go straight to tanjung aru park. she told us to go to mount kinabalu park and desa cattle dairy farm. we were very glad to do as she suggested. otherwise, we would be missing two beautiful and amazing places. the drive was a little bit uphill. thanks again to our experienced and skilled driver, fiza, we made it to the park. the view is breathtaking. you could see the top of mount kinabalu up close.

see see, mount kinabalu!
after enjoying the view and fresh air, we drove to desa cattle dairy farm. again, the view was simply spectacular but the air is not so fresh. despite the view, you will smell the animals' manure. you'll see many cows grazing the grass. sometimes, it made you feel like you are in new zealand. eventhough, i've never been to new zealand myself, i may have watch a documentary on it. you could also see how fresh milks are processed and you even feed baby animals. they are very cute and will feast (mostly milk and hay) what you give them greedily. i gave a bottle of milk to one of the kid, and it took him only maybe 15 seconds to finish it. do buy the milk here because it tastes so good, very fresh and all...

cows everywhere
then, we went back to our last destination of the day, before going back to peninsular, tanjung aru beach. we had our late lunch here while waiting for the sunset. they are a lot people around having fun. most of them are families. sunset finally came and we must be getting to the airport. we returned our rented car there and said goodbye to kk. maybe, someday we would come again and do the things we haven't got the chance to do.. i also left my sun hat in the rented car. may it be a momento to the car owner, haha...

sayonara kk!

ps: finally, i am done with the kota kinabalu updates.. i think i'm left with putri's wedding and my most recent adventure in manila.. please be patient with me, i'm begging you.. hehe, i'll try my best to write the entries as soon as i can.. thank you for reading.. (if there are readers other than myself) but, i seem to realize i write this blog not because i want it to be read (and it would actually be nice when there's a reader). i just write it to store my memory and my moment of life.. when i had the chance to read my past entries, it really helps me recall things that i may have forgotten if not for this blog. well, every person is unique and special and will have own various reasons to do things, in this case 'blogging!' thanks again for reading!!! ^_^
