I am all about Korean songs now. New ones I currently enjoy: “It’s You” by Super Junior, “Now” by Wonder Girls and “Fire” by female Big Bang, 2NE1

More photos of the place we resided in Kuching:
Somerset Gateway Kuching.
Lelia brought us to the highest floor to see the swimming pool, jacuzzi and sauna…
The swimming pool (that I did not have the chance to try T_T) and the amazing bird’s eye view from the top.
#2: SARAWAK NATIONAL LIBRARY
Our next stop is Kuching’s huge and picturesque library.
They even have a pond!
LOL. Thanks to Suz, we couldn’t resist doing this…squeezing the library…
Walking through its outer corridors leading to the entrance.
Group photo at the fountain at the entrance.
The “buddies” and MC who looked a little lost.
These steps are scarier than they looked…and beware girls who wear skirts!
The bookstore there had clearance sales so I bought two reads – One of “The Cat Who…” series and a biography of Jane Austen for RM10 each.
Got bangau outside okay? I thought it was just a garden ornament at first until it moved its leg. BTW, what is bangau in English already?
#3: AQUARIUM & MUSEUM
At a monument.
They say, “Imitation is the highest form of flattery”. How did we do?
At the aquarium en route to the museum.
At the entrance to the Museum of Ethnology. What is up with Suz’s face?
There were other museums within the precinct.
“Look is that superman flying by?” No. It is just my two poser roommates.
We are not allowed to take any photos inside the museum. But, still…I guess rules are really made to be broken. Exhibits included the famous bird of Sarawak, the hornbill and a prehistoric-like skeleton.
The exhibits downstairs are more about evolution of various species of animals whilst upstairs have more cultural-themed exhibits.
The blogger against some tribal masks.
Despite the camera restrictions, we did snapped some photos. However in our pursuit to avoid the glares and warnings of the guards, we had to take photos really fast. It truly brought out the “model” in us. Hahaha. Pose and then click click. The bad thing is, the photos all turned out to be too blurry to be used (Because did not press long enough for the lens to focus. I did not know until we left the museum).
One last photo before we leave.
Lelia took us to food stalls to quench our thirst with “ais kacang”, the first of many more to come in the following days. We also had some dumplings and “rojak sotong”.
to be continued…
