Teluk Intan Road Trip, the Movie!
R.O.A.D.T.R.I.P.!
Yeah, you read it right! Road trip! Dad, Mum and me (from here on, this will be shortened to DMM) went on a road trip yesterday to Teluk Intan to see the Leaning Tower.
Not-so-bright and very early Sunday morning, DMM woke up at 5.30am and got ready for our trip. Armed with bottled water, sweets and Red Bull, we piled into the car. 2 hours later found us at Ipoh, having dim sum at Jalan Leong Sin Nam. The most famous dim sum place in Ipoh is arguably Foh San, but I preferred the place we went to. The name escapes me now, but it sound somewhere along the lines of Yoke Fook Mun. Though, we made a mistake and actually wanted to eat at Ming Court, which was on the opposite side of the same road. For those of you who are interested, this road is behind Excelsior Hotel.
After piling food into our stomachs, we continued on our journey using the old trunk road. We made a short stopover at Kellie’s Castle. The general reaction was “….That’s it?” But it did look pretty, from the outside. We didn’t go in because it would cost us money…hahahaha… KIAM SIAP!
Moving along, we made a discovery by the side of the road. There was a mining dredge that was kept as a historical monument. That thing was HUGE!! And I mean HUGE!! Humongous! Gigantic! Well, you get the idea.
Further along the road, we saw cows…and plants…and trees…and more plants….and less cars. By this time, I had nodded off to sleep. WHAT!? The greenery was very soothing on my eyes.
Opening my eyes, we arrived at civilization. It’s a wonder how by taking a very looooong blink; you can arrive immediately at your destination. Parking the car at the side, we headed off on foot towards the Leaning Tower of Teluk Intan. It took a few minutes of eye-squinting, head-tilting and walking around the structure before DMM decided that yes, the tower was, in fact, leaning. We couldn’t help it! The tilt was MINIMAL! Taking a stroll inside, we found out that we could only go up 2 storeys. From the 3rd storey onwards, it was a water tank. It was heartening to see that most of the ‘tourists’ were Malaysians.
Moving along, we headed over to the Leaning Tower Complex, where there were shops. Due to the fact that it was the second day of Hari Raya, most of the shops were closed. We didn’t leave empty-handed though. Stumbling upon and spectacle shop offering 50% discounts off their sunglasses, Dad and I got a pair of sunnies each. Dad got himself a pair of polarized Ray Ban while I got a pair of polarized Polaroid sunnies.
Ironically, we ate KFC for lunch. Then we went along our merry way back home using the scenic route. I got to be the navigator! Whee! Based on the Perak map, I told Dad, “Follow Route 5 until you get to Sitiawan. Then continue on Route 5 until you see signboards that show Route 71. After Route 71, get on Route 73 and finally Route 60 will get us out at Changkat Jering and back onto the North-South Highway.”
Unfortunately, due to some errors on the map (yes, it’s the map’s fault. NOT MINE!), we ended up immediately on Route 60. But I guess it was all right, since we were on the right (final) route. And now, we cut to the end of the trip because yours truly nodded off again.
Dinner was at Chok Dee, AutoCity! WHEE!! I love that place! Best deep fried kangkong EVER! And of course, great Thai food. But the deep fried kangkong, YUM! Finally, we got home at 9.30pm. Dad and Mum pottered off to bed while I (fully rested and hyper) went off for supper with my friends.
And that wraps up today’s report on DMM’s Road Trip to Teluk Intan. Stay tuned for the next news report!

Vain? Who me? NO WAI!!
So I dug up this little meme on Patrick Teoh's wife's blog *deep breath*. Seemed kinda fun to do, and I must say...it seems to be quite true, don't you think?
I'd rant about the ridiculous rules imposed on Gwen Stefani's concert in Malaysia...but I haven't actually read the news article yet, so I'll rant a bit later!
Whee!! I seem to be blogging more these days.
What to do, I have boring life mah... Are you boring?
