Genting Highlands

Last monday, shing and I went to Genting!! WOO we drove there using shing's pcd(more than 10 yrs) proton saga. Took about 2 hours.. You must be thinking, how the hell do u get to genting in 2 hours!?

Fortunately for us, this genting is in Penang. Don't know if you guys know about it but its located sumwhr near balik pulau, overlooking the straits of malacca where the cb parameswara started spawning bobos in this land. (CURSES!! SHUDVE GET KICKED IN THE BALLZ BY THE MOUSEDEER AND TURN STERILE)

Well this trip was suppose to be some sort of suprise by shing. The main plan was :- shing fetches me from my place. She drives me to genting. But it ended up :- shing fetched me from my place, she drove, got a little lost, I drove and we reach genting. All of this is due to us havin no idea of how to get there.

The road to genting was pretty far from my place. It consisted of multiple winding roads, a couple o hills, 60 degree slopes and a very hot temperature.
We left about 3 in the evenin after havin the famous boborice near my place. Bought some titbits and started our journey. Reached sungai2 with zero problems, I even manage to get some sleep on the way.

As soon as we pass Sungai2, the problems came. Firstly the aircond gave up on us. 3pm sunlight i tink is enough to cook eggs of my own d so u can imagine havin stuck in a car w/o cooling air cond. So we wounded down the window which brings to the 2nd problem. AIR POLLUTION. Dammit.

3rd was shingua started to panic cus she wasnt too sure of the way to get there. That time, I wasnt too sure that we're going to genting hill(shing didnt tell me cus she wanted to suprise me). But this pro noc of yours has this uncanny 6th sense. He was pretty sure it was there(i learned about the place through email).

While on the way there, we were pretty desperate cus there werent any signs about genting hill/bukit genting. We even resorted to asking bangalas for the way there. Of course, they werent any help. Ironically, a bobo by the roadside claimed she knew the way there, so we followed her directions. We passed roads where traffic lights are operated by solar panels and more winding road.

We reached the foot of the hill and was pretty sure we're on the right track. The bobos directions were right! Amazin....or issit pure luck? Ill stick to the luck thingy tho. Next, we thread up the hill with the gassy car. Saw lotsa peacocks patrolling beside the road. Dam i never saw so many of those wild birds walking around before. Hmm lame joke : why did the peacock cross the road? Ans : TO GET A PACKET OF VIAGRA..AHHAHAhaha get it? PEA-COCK!! get it? ok nvm...

Bukit genting was not at the top but about middle of the hill. The place was sorta like a play ground with animal displays and LED spiders. There was a restaurant there too, the only restaurant in sight and it is run by thailand dudes or maybe they're just kang langs. Whats the great deal wasting half tank of petrol to get up to a thai restaurant? Well I guess it's all for the sake of the beautiful scenary.

Shing and I were the first to get up there but a crowd soon followed along and filled the restaurant. We took a couple of pics, had some thai desserts, took our titbits, more pictures and headed back home tired but happy.(famous ending line for karangan bertajuk 'BERKELAH DI TEPI PANTAI') Thats about it folks. Oh yeah I would like to thank shing for this trip and to those who were so concerned over my ahma. thanks to those who visited as well as those with intentions of visiting too. Also to god for answering my prayers. XieXie.
