Mok Wedding weekend 7/3/2015 @ Kota Kinabalu

Day 1. Jenny and I took a taxi to Changi Terminal 3 at 10am in the morning on 7/3/2015... We knew that this time round will be a short trip back to KK. Basically just to attend the wedding, meet my parents, catch up with some old friends and relax.

We took a new airlines called Malindo air, which is a combination of malaysia and also indonesian airlines. There were ample leg space for typical Asian like me. They got entertainment screen, light snacks and a bottle of water provided. The down side is that we have to transit at Kuala Lumpur in order for us to get to Kota Kinabalu.

After about 5 hours of journey, we reached there around 3pm. My mum was waiting for me at the arrival gate in KKIA, We greeted our parents, took the car and drive off to our hotel. After getting refreshed we then travelled to Shangrilla's hotel. We reached there around 5pm sharp.

Met a group of old friends, secondary friends mostly, mok, mok's family generally. Feels like home just that a lot of us are now older.

So there are a few ushers on the spot, free flow of food and drinks. We then being ushered to rows of seat where Mok and her Husband will exchange vows. The sun is starting to set behind them, which makes the entire scene cinematic. Without further delay, they then exchanged vows and kissed by the beach in front of all of us.

We then had photo sessions with Mok and her newly wed Husband, Jin Chiao.

After that, we proceeded to the dinner place, drop my hong bao to mok's relatives and proceeded to our respective table, started our meal, dance with our old friends and of course drink with my old mates!

After the wedding dinner, I left the place and joined my parents for a round of herbal Tea at Foh Sang.

After our herbal tea session, we then retire to our room at promenade and have a good rest.

Day 2- On our 2nd day in KK, we had breakfast at Kuo Min, Fish paste and roasted pork. After our breakfast, we drove to the jetty and took a short boat ride to Sapi Island.

The water is crystal clear and the weather is just nice. I had a good nap there.

On my way back to KK jetty, I lost my S5 and also my mum's sim card in it. I guess it was either dropped into the sea or being stolen by someone.

After the incident, I went back to hotel to get rest and joined my family for dinner at supertanker.

Day 3. 
Had breakfast at tung fong Inanam, we had lao shu pan for breakfast, which I did not expect. After that, we went to visit a property at UCA.

The place is nice but the owner refuse to give us some discount on the selling price. So the waiting game begins.

After our property visit, we then picked up my parents from the office and went straight back to KK airport. We then left KK with heavy hearts.
