Tag along

I love to tag along Wan to his outstation meetings.

Last December was Alor Setar and we stayed at Holiday Villa.

Standard room.

Toilet with bath tub

The mini bar.

The view from our room

The room is clean, no strains of hair on the carpet, no mold on the bathroom wall, received a copy of newspaper in the morning however, the heater was not consistent (sometimes it suddenly became extremely hot).

The first meeting will start in the night at 9pm, so we took our time to walk around Alor Star. There's a shopping complex next to Holiday Villa, (err, actually both are in the same building), but the shopping complex is more or less like Warta Bangi without Guardian and supermarket. Yes, no supermarket. You have to walk to 7-E across the street to get yourself something to munch.

Pekan Rabu

Shops selling Haj stuff and tudungs

Jejantas with escalator. Later was told by Shidi that people refused to use the jejantas before the escalator was built. But you can see Malaysian are very degil.

There's nothing much to see. Bought a few bottles of kuah rojak. Shidi (Wan's bestfriend during DPA) is coming to Alor Star too that night after his meeting because he had another meeting the next day, but both finished late so I had dozed off waiting for them for the late supper.

So we decided to meet up the next day after their meetings.

Checked-out at 12pm. Shidi's still in the meeting.

Went to the tower, unfortunately it is under construction.

Dirty

Uncivilised

Invisible bench

No kissing ok

Shidi came 1 1/2 hour later. Huhuhu. He treated us lunch and had a chat for a while before he had to dash to his brother's nikah ceremony. A very busy man indeed. His staff even came all the way from Sg. Petani for him to sign last minute payment vouchers during our lunch.

Bid goodbye and took off at 2pm++. Arrived home exhausted at 10pm.. Massive traffic jam because it was raining heavily.

So, who are we meeting in Kuantan tomorrow? :)
