Kinabalu Pine Resort trip
August 13th, 2008 by emelda
Monday 4:30pm we left kk for Ranau after what seems like 5 hours trip ( sakit ba my buntut sitting down in the car.. jalan pun teruk kalau kereta besar maybe inda terasa sangat kan?) although its only 2.5 hours trip actually.
Once we reached Nabalu park we made a pit stop just to snap few sunset pictures of Mount KK and another smaller version of mount kk( brother told me the name of this gunung but hmm inda ingat sudah, kalau inda silap he did say it’s the 2nd highest mountain in Malaysia or maybe even Asia??)
While we were busy taking pictures, me and my mom was the model suddenly ada bau busuk laaaaaa..guess what someone FARTED!!! LOL!!! Bida eh..im not sure who farted but it did made us run and laugh out loud like monkeys at Nabalu park. We guess its the group who was just few meters away from us.
Reach at Pine resort around 7 plus,checked in to the room,unpacked our stuff and headed straight to the restaurant just right across our cabin.We had steamboat for dinner thinking that it will be the best way to fill our tummy in a cool weather but we were all wrong! The price per head that they charge for the steamboat VS the portion that they serve us..man…it’s like langit and bumi!!!
Yes, that the portion for RM28 per head!! They give u 4 pathethic looking prawns and few bits and pieces of tepung sotong,ketam,fish ball,3 pieces of dim sum,2 tomatoes,chicken fillet and fish fillet,telur and mee and meehoon. The rest is actually rumput for us to makan! Yes, its actually all rumput @ vege and all this is for 4 darn hungry humans!!! We were complaining to the waitress about the portion but we were ignored. They just gave us their sweetest smile… Oh well, at least now we know ..that’s what we told ourself that night.
Next day we woke up early just to catch the best view of Mount Kk and guess who is the first person to actually get up and asked everyone to get ready?? None other than Daniel,bersemangat i tell you…LOL! While he was rushing to the shower room, i busied myself with our camera taking pictures of mount kk. I must say,it was a spectacular view to see in the morning…heaven! Fresh air and all my oh my… loved it!
Amazing isn’t it?
Ahh,i wish im still back home in kk,where there is still loads of greeneries to enjoy, less pollution, the heavenly kampung food(nantung,pinasakan,bambangan,tuhau to name a few) and yes the cheap ass fresh seafood! Oh,greatness!!
Anyway, we left the Pine resort shortly after that and before we checked out we took few more pictures together with the Mount KK as the background.

Wah nice lah moi… havent been up to the mountains in months! Totally love it up there. Used to love being at the KNP itself, but now it seems like the weather there is too warm for my liking, so I have since ventured further up to Mesilau and the DESA cow farm. My two favourite places in Kundasang!
