2 days 1 night!~ Kudat
Ssup everyone. 
Would like to share my short escape to Kudat (wohoo). Actually we plan to go Kudat on 16 and 17 April. Because of we have a lot to do on that day so we bring it on 9 and 10 April. It's 2days and 1night. It takes about 3 hours (maybe..not so sure since i only slept in the car. lol)  from Ums to Kudat.

We stay at Meranjak longhouse (rm50 for 1 night) which is located 1 hour to simpang mengayau. the room is quiet big and there is three single bed in the room and of course no aircond because it is longhouse dude. what do you expect in the longhouse? Actually there's a chalet and Villa if you want to stay at Simpang Mengayau (too expensive for student like us). The longhouse is a traditional house for Rungus ethnic. for those who wants to experience longhouse can stay at this house. But the toilet is at the outside of the house which is quite far and it has frog if you don't close the door properly.

The next morning, we woke up on 3:30am to go to Simpang Mengayau which take about 1 hour. If your car petrol is at the half of the last bar, don't worry because you can reached the destination safely but you need to find villagers who sell petrol. There is one villagers who sell petrol at the junction, oh yeah we buy 3 bottles (4.5L) it can only fills for 1 bar. It is a thrill experience since we were worried if the car will stopped at the halfway we went to Simpang Mengayau but thanks to Allah we managed to arrive safely and we also met Olong (a kid that we met when we want to buy petrol) he is so shy and clever. Hope to meet you in the future Olong. The sunrise is so pretty and amazing. I can feel 'kebesaran' Allah swt and grateful I have a chances to go Kudat.

Then we went to Kudat town, if you are from Kuala Muda (Kedah), Kudat town has the same feeling like that place because it is a fishermen town. You can see boat, net, wet market,the smell of sea, fish (smell of fish), fishermen lepak at warung while drinking teh tarik and talk in their own languange (of course they talk about weather, the amount of fish they caught and many more). I miss my hometown when i went there. lol

Before we going back to Ums, we stopped at bee farm (rm3 for one person). If you are lucky you can taste fresh honey. The lady said, it depends on the amount the honey produce. She also said they only prepared the house for the bee and the bee will make their hive in the house. (But I think it depends on the environment also, if there is nothing for the bees to collect nectar, they will not do their hive). my expense for this trip is around rm100 which include house, car, petrol, food, souvenir and many more. We spend a lot of our money on petrol kinda sad because the car telan petrol kuat sungguh.

ps: I dedicated this post to Anis. She actually wants me to do vlog but I don't have any speciality in talking so I decide to write this post for her. Later when you fly to Europe, don't forget to write where you go and your experience.
