Day 2 - Hanging Around The City

Initially, we wanted to make a trip to the Kinabalu park at the foot of Mount kinabalu, but we changed our plans knowing the journey would take us about 2 hours. Travelling such a distance with a toddler may not be such a great idea. So we decided to hang out around the city area & boy, did we had our tummy filled up.

We had breakfast at the hotel before we head out to the Gaya Street Market.


Note to self... it is actually very hard to move about with a stroller at the street market. But Lucas fell asleep in it despite the heat & the cramp place. So I guess it's still ok :)

A picture of us and our dear friend Glenn (our tour guide in Sabah!) LOL

We head on to Yee Fung for Lunch. We had yummy Sarawak Laksa, Kolo mee (dry beef noodles) & beef noodles soup. The place was packed! *another downside of having a stroller & a sleeping baby-there's no place for us to park our stroller. Luckily, Lucas woke up when we found a place to sit. So we were able to fold the stroller & we had to hold Lucas while we take turns to eat. *No baby chairs available*

Next, we head on to Suria Sabah. This place I had to rant. As Lucas wanted to nurse, so I looked for the baby room. I went to the area where the sign shows a baby room, so I asked the lady who was manning the toilet is there a room to feed my baby? she said 1st floor. So, ok I went to the first floor.
Then, to enter the baby room I need to pay 30 cents. Fine. So, when I entered the room... Super disappointed! No chairs, no dustbin. It's practically an empty room, with a sink top. So Alex held lucas and I had to climb and sit on the Sink top to feed Lucas. -__-" Then when i was changing Lucas' diaper, I couldn't find any rubbish bin. I went out and told the lady "Charge tiga puluh sen, tak ada tempat buang sampah??" She say buang di luar... =__= WHAT! geez.



Next stop, was a pastry place my friend recommended & I agree with him that it's delicious. I'm starting to miss the pastry puff already!



 The mushroom & chicken pie was my favourite. YUMS!

 Then we walked to the next road to have "Sang Nyuk Mee" - Pork soup noodles.
The dried noodles reminded me of the dried pan mee in Penang. :)


The soup consist of pork & other parts like liver & intestines.
3 person shared a bowl because we were too stuffed!

 After being so stuffed with food, we head down to Tanjung Aru. We are still in awe about this place.
Wait till you see the pictures :)
Lucas travelled in the car seat whenever we travel in a car.



He was so comfortable in his own seat that he fell asleep in it. So we carried him down and I had to find a seat to rest my back. The view was great so no complains!


Look at who's still sleeping?

Sunset bar is the main reason we are at Rasa Sayang Resort, Tanjung Aru.  By sunset, this place was pack with people. *note: we are required to order drinks before we are allowed to enter the bar*






 Just before sunset, there was a rainbow right across the beach! Its was amazing.... so in love.

Look at the amount of people behind me... everyone wanted to catch a glimpse of the beautiful sunset.



That's the end of Day 2.
