So it's time for me to stop procrastinating and start to blog more about Kuching , or else I won't get to blog about my christmas post by this christmas..=S
Firstly, I'll start off with the Cat Museum...so the first thing that came into our mind is .. is there real cats inside the Cat Museum..? and then later on we found out theres none..anyways its free to enter the Cat Museum but you'll have to pay to take pictures inside...and I don't really know how they judge the price but I remembered them saying because I'm using a digital camera so yeah they charged MYR4 for it...
Saw these Japanese imported stuffs inside the museum..High School Musical has Wild Cats , the japanese has Cool Cat .. Lol..
Unexpected things to see inside the museum will be Hello Kitty collections..lol...its not antique..
Even more...then you'll see Garfield...and Doreamon..
There are various posters and images displayed at the museum..i like this particular pic..Cat alphabets..hehe
See even cats can be so loving ... the sign says " please do not sit " .. no interruptions =P
You know some pets are just so lucky to have good owners? Even they died still got people remember them...
This cat dolls is weird...looks more like lions..
There is also display of cats stamps and postcards...
This is a cat's dead body which is believed to have preserved in the famous Egyptians way..like a mummy...
Ignore my reflection...I'm not one of the cat =P
Some funny cat posters...
Fortune cat..also named .. Zhao Cai Mao..
Elaine , Denise & Beverley the cats... =POwh theres also a souvenior place to buy cat souveniors...I bought earrings and tee shirts as charity because they'll donate the money to the charity home in kuching..
This is the cultural place in Kuching..I heard that inside you'll see real native people that stay inside that place giving explaination of their cultural stuffs...but the price to pay is RM60 per person if you're not a local...which is dumb k...the person was saying eventhough you're a Malaysian we'll still charge you the foreigner price...and they said unless we produce our student card its RM15 ..which is really stupid..who brings student card while they're on vacation? LOL..Aunty insisted on bringing us in..but we rejected...not worth visiting since KK also have all these things..Next is Kuching's General Museum...since it's under renovation..there's nothing much to see but what you see in these 3 pictures...very sad indeed and also ...as usual..visited their souvenior shop...
old newspapers...
LOL...look its denise ! hahahahahahahahaa same pose...lolVisited Kuching's resorts too...Damai Puri and Damai something at Damai...it's honestly kinda dissapointing for resort standard la...no wonder when Bev see the resorts in KK she said its very different from what they have in Kuching..and it takes about an hour journey from town..
Visited the Malaysia - China Friendship Park too..but it was raining that day so the pictures taken was took from the car...and zoomed from far...this place is said it used to be the place where the malaysians meet the chinese...
it is located in the middle of a housing area...surrounded by houses...

and there's also a hall..which used to have a chinese restaurant...but it didnt made it..so its kinda abandon..now this place is use mostly for people learning taichee..
The entrance...besides that theres also a really huge statue of Cheng Ho...but I didn't take the pic...can't take from the car..hahaWent to town ..opposite the waterfront area and saw these old building..used to be the old kuching court? was build since 1889 if not mistaken..its kinda abandon now but heard that theres chances someone will turn this place to a restaurant...
From the side...
Charles Brooke's history...
Opposite the court...I spotted another old building...looks like a little castle...now transform into some tourism information kinda place ...
and opposite that white castle..was the famous Fort Margaret..and also in between is ying yong river..hahaha..
See the mudwater...this pic was zoomed from farrrrrrrrrr...
and next to Fort Margarita is this building..I dunno what is it hahaha...that pretty sums up a few places I visited besides the Indian streets..Kuching's club..shopping malls ... =)
Next post is still about Kuching .
