Decided to take a short trip to KK as a getaway! A trip which we missed 14 years ago!
25/5/26!
A little “adventure “ on our first day of arrival at Kundasang!
1. They gave us a weird GPS location of their hotel? It was drizzling around 5pm when we arrived. But the road was weird ! Undulating, unpaved and narrow among agricultural lands. In the end John decided to stop the car. Fortunately he did. Called the hotel in charge and was told wrong place! Had to U turn back!
2. Had a bit of shocked when we stepped into the chalet? No fridge ( we bought beer) and no TV! π Pretty disappointed cos we booked 3 nights originally!
3. Decided to use this excuse and got owner / Trip to cancel one day and get our refund. Thank God quite responsive. By afternoon got the call from Trip on the refund. π
4. Met the family from kluang and was told they had a better room with balcony and fridge etc! Made us complain lor! But the old man who received us at the junction when we “lost” our way was pretty helpful. He helped us to ta pau food from the restaurant cos the way in was a little bumpy.
5. The weather up the mountain is nice. The place is def bigger than Cameron Highlands?
6. The Desa dairy really looked a bit like NZ π well the original moo moo were from there and australia. But hybrid from Usa Cow sperms later π
7. Quite lucky! Managed to see the Rafflesia in Bloom! Din know this mushroom flower lives only for 5-6 days. Short life span. Paid rm 30 and 20 ( Malaysian) just to gawk at their 3 blooms covered in shade!
8. Lunch at Sabah Tea at the hill top was pretty a good view! LIke the Cameron highlands.
9. On route back to Ranau, stopped by at a bus IG place. Hmm. Now is the Malaysian school holidays. And Haji is Tomo. But this “ Bus” was empty. Decided to take drink. Felt a bit sorry for them. No biz :(
Going to golf 9 hole and check out ! So glad to get the refund. Will head to KK city tomo afternoon instead. π
27/5/26- 28/5/26 Day 3 & 4 In KK city!
KK is not a big city. The town is just a few KM long. π The airport is just couple of min to the city centre!
Glad we decided to quit one day in the mountains. Drove up and down the “city “ π
So decided to take a trip to Mari Mari Culture Village for their scheduled half day guided tour. One was 10am which was fully booked. So no choice went to the 2pm slot. Pretty educational! About the Sabah tribes! This village
Their Aru Beach? Think our Changi Beach is as good and cleaner !
Then I spotted my CORAL!!! befitting of our 35 Anniversary! LOL. This was at the KK Suteral Harbour area!
Managed to do a quick snap of KK City Mosque. Quite nice
We stayed in a designer hotel accredited Luma Hotel which was just opposite Glen hospital and their Imago shopping centre. This one is good value for money compared to the silly Spring Kudasang! π ( next time look for this design hotel accredition! Boutique style. Well renovated)
