My Trip to Bakelalan for the Apple Feista ’10

seth — Thu, 20 May 2010 10:52:21 +0000

It all happen when my mom called asking if I was free in May to go for the apple festival with them and ask me to block the dates (5/5/10 – 10/5/10). And I was not in the mood to go there. Dint know what to expect. But everything change on the very day I left Kuching for Miri.

I was suppose to be on the 4.30pm flight to Miri on the 5th but was stranded in Kuching airport for 2 hours… It made me even more frustrated and felt like should I be on this flight? Is the 2 hours enough to fix the plane?

Anyway, we left Kuching at about 6.30pm. An hour later i was in Miri…. Met up with few of my old buddies and hang out till late.

Because I came back home bout nearly 4 am I decided not to sleep coz at 5.30 am I had to leave to the airport again to catch on my flight to Bakelalan. This was the 1st time as a young adult I sat in a twin otter and the feeling was exited and SCARY…. as the plane was so small and tiny. I had to band down to walk in the plane and it had sits like the ones use in a public bus.

Pesta Benak 2010 (Tidal Bore Carnival)

seth — Sun, 02 May 2010 11:27:15 +0000

The Batang Lupar flows 200km from its source in the Kapuas Mountains to the Teluk Datu of the South China Sea. At its mouth the river forms the broadest estuary in Sarawak, as well as accommodating the largest of the four benak’s that occur in Sarawak.

Tidal bore or locally known as benak, occurs everyday with different wavelengths and heights. However, during spring tide, normally on the third and eighteen day of the Chinese Lunar Calendar, tidal bores with high magnitude can be observed clearly. The ‘benak’ continues its journey another 30 km inland, ending near the small village of Engkilili.

Pesta Benak (Tidal Bore Carnival) in Sri Aman is one of the yearly activities in the Sarawak tourism calendar. The objective of Pesta Benak Sri Aman is to introduce Sri Aman town through tourism and encourage tourist from in and outside the country to visit Sri Aman. Apart from it, Pesta Benak is also to promote harmony among local community.

In conjunction with this phenomenon, many events were organized such as exhibition, food fair, karaoke competition, culture and art performances and others. Tidal wave festival has made the area a popular spot in Sarawak for visitors; you can join in the fun and hitch a ride with the longboats or just watch the boatman braving the waves. You can even immerse yourself with the local culture at the food fair, good music and dance performances that are part and parcel of the festival.

Wild Weekend

seth — Mon, 15 Mar 2010 16:51:41 +0000

Last weekend really had a great time with the OZ boyz. They were so crazy at the beginning of the trip but when we reach the outskirts of Kuching, they were stunned. I never seen anyone would rub soiled rocks on their body, posed in the river like a warrior, and best of all, being more crazy then they have been since they came 3 weeks ago.

Here are some photo’s of them at Ana Rais Village…

Hope to have more outing with these guys again. Perhaps this time stay a night in the jungle.
