Roadtrip Kancil ke Pantai Timur
Are you kidding me?
We travelled more than 1000km in just 3 days covering 5 states with our one and only Perodua Kancil 850cc, manual. Don't ask me about the specs because the #lamboryellowghini is a factory standard except for the rims, the color, the radio, the steering wheel & the seats.
Here's the summary of this epic journey. It's full of activities so you better be prepared to read this.
Departed at 630am from Cyberjaya. Big mistakes because KL traffic jams started at 620am. We wasted about an hour riding through the heavy traffics.
Stop for breakfast and freshen up in RnR Gua Musang. Super convenient though you need to bring a flash light in the toilet.
Reached KB at 230pm. Didn't realized that we did an 8 hour drive. Feel glad about the Kancil standard suspension. With the four of us and the bonet was full to the max, we made it through the KB - Gua Musang epic bumpy highway. It was raining from Gua Musang to KB and the grip of my Hankook's rubber was really good.
Checked in at Nurul Eki Heritage Hotel. Strategic location but it was the first and will be the last time we are staying there. Please personally ask me my experience. Too many stuff to write, or check out my complaints at Agoda. Malaysian hospitality has a long way to go.
We wanted to see the Wau making gallery by Pakcik Shafie at PCB but it was closed.
Nani & Cha had their first kite in Pantai Cahaya Bulan. I'm happy to see my wife happy seeing our daughters are happy. We ate colek-colek for dinner.
2nd day: Breakfast at the restaurant in front of our hotel. Forgot the name but I truly recommend it. I at nasi dagang and roti telur. It's yummy. Oh, the "teh ping" is one of the best I ever tasted.
Went to PCB again for skating. No one there in the morning. Awesome!!! Madi & Aidil came later for Coconut shake!
Attended Herman & Liyana's reception. Love the wedding. Love the foods. But we made our move earlier for Cherating.
2nd fuel up at KB. 360km to go and we made a pit stop at Sawah padi near Jertih and wash the car at Bandar Permaisuri, Terengganu. Then we hit the LPT2. Lucky they haven't charged us any toll. Arrived at Cherating at 800pm.
Day 3: Went for surfing lesson at Cherating Point surf school. It was awesome. I requested for a board with a GoPro mount, which they have it but on a smaller board. Smaller board means it was meant for a pro surfer. I had countless practice but by the time I can pop and surf for 4 seconds, my GoPro battery died. Sigh.
Had lunch with my cousin who works in Kemaman at Ombok, Cherating. Supper cool cafe and I love every music they played.
Safely arrived at Cyberjaya at 530pm. Alhamdulillah.

2nd fuel up at Kota Bharu: RM25.78 (tripped at 270km)
