Road trip in Johor Bahru

This is my diary of my travel in Malaysia I wrote in a notebook yesterday.

10:01 am:

My family and I take a public bus to JB. We've taken Service 160 from Jurong East Bus Interchange. However, my family and I brought the Singapore passports to produce it before we proceed. Service 160 (operated by SBS Transit) boarding berth at Jurong East Tempoary Bus Intrchange is located at berth B2.

11 am:
We reached JB when we check in the Singapore passports to enter. A access to Johor Bahru City Square is to turn left and walk until we reach JB Sentral ('JB Central' in malay).

11:35 am:
We had much time for lunch. My father locate a coffeeshop among Jalan Wong Ah Fook, where we eat rice, noodle, porridge and more. This is a picture of a menu for the drinks:


My mother had curry bee hoon/mee, my sister had kway chap, but my dad and I had duck, I also eat duck rice to keep me fit.

12:35 pm:
We traveled to GIANT Hypermarket Plentong to buy groceries back to Singapore by taxi, so I notify a cab had a radio station in Johor and Singapura when I preseted on the WALKMAN player 104.5FM.

1 pm:
We reached the hypermarket which my family and I've never been there for a while to buy groceries like our supplies.

1:30 pm:
We went into the supermarket to buy things like 3 packs in 10 pieces of century quality eggs, 1 bundle of 6 SUPER cup noodles Chicken flavour, 2 packs in 15 sachets of 40g of OLD TOWN white coffee and so much more. By the time we paid money at 1421hrs, it cost RM95.13.

2:40 pm:
We call taxi to KSL City mall to find the electronic stuffs. I remember this city has hitz.fm, 97.6FM was preseted in my entertainment devices.

3:10 pm:
We reached there to see the stuffs. We left at 1533hrs to walk until we reach Holiday Plaza to buy the footwear, passport covers and more.

5:02 pm:
We're having dinner at Pusat Penjaja Taman Sri Tebrau to order the sambal seafood, sambal vegetables and soup. Below is a picture of a hawker centre in Taman Sri Tebrau:

6:25 pm:
We take a taxi back to Johor Bahru City Square to find back the CIQ checkpoint to get back to Singapore where we check in our Singapore Passports. My sister has bought a cosmetic product for her beauty look. We had spent 8 hours being there already for holidays.

broadcast: taking a super nice bus on the NS highway




No Miyagi this week (http://youtu.be/SAhi6d5VzHo), just mrbrown and Mr Tan (yes he is back!) podcasting from a noisy Super Nice coach to Kuala Lumpur.

We were supposed to take a premium coach (like those from the Aeroline and the Nice bus companies), which I booked online, but for some reason, I ended up booking tickets for Thursday for all six of our party, when we were supposed to depart Friday. Of course, I only discover this on the taxi to the pickup point, on Friday morning itself.

So we ended up on a Super Nice bus (that's what this competitor called its buses).

We decided to podcast our experience travelling up the North-South Highway, including cultural experiences like stopping over at Yong Peng rest stop, and being participants of, er, police entrepreneurialism.

This audio podcast does not contain "explicit political content" because that is prohibited during the election period under the Singapore's Election Advertising Regulations.

Road trip to Phuket (December 2013)

Before my family and I go for road trip, I have come up with new plans because we leave on the 6th (that's Friday). For day 1, we arrive at the airport in Phuket and rent a room. I actually feel that The Yim Siam Hotel is the one that we will be staying for a week in Thailand. The language we'll be speaking is thai to the hotel accomlator about the room. I may want to blog there and my family return on the 14th (that's Satuday).

You can head over to mrbrownshow.com hear the mrbrown show podcast episode "English for Airports", but watch out for any bad words.
