jalan jalan end of 2008

ive put off blogging bout my recent travels long enuf. baik tulis skarang b4 i forget. even now i cant remember d dates. its rather confusing u c. i know i left 4 cape town on d 23rd of dec, or was it 24th?anyway!we went to cape town! but b4 smpai, we transit dulu kt johannesburg..den transit agn kt buenos aires..sungguh lama nk smpai..penat duk dlm aircraft, nk turun papa xbg coz he had 2 work so if i went down id b alone, n he'd b like cacing kepanasan takut org bwk lari anak dier yg keras kepala sorg nih. so bearing in mind that we (papa n i SAHAJA ok!) had another 10 days to go, i figured, it wouldnt hurt to obey my dear father (sebenarnye takut malu kene marah dpn crew) dis one time.

each transit was about an hour n a half. pastu finaaaaaly smpai la jgak..we stayed at d southern sun cape sun hotel (so manny suns..). smpai2 je we checked in den papa cepat2 nk beli pie coz he was afraid d kedai tutup awal sbab xmas eve. janna being janna cannot tgk supermarket without going waaaaaauuuuu over every little choclate snowman and marshmallow tree. i got d roasted chicken. sgt sdap n tender w crispy skin. xtremely unhealthy but who cares, im on holiday! tp xde gamba sbab both of our hands were covered with greasy goodness. pas dh kenyang we took d hotel shuttle to d water front. sgt gorgeous! i went to capetown once wen i was 9. my dad was posted thr for 4 months m we used to go down to d water front everyday. now it looks so diff!all new n shiny! n malls!!lots n lots o malls!mostly restaurants but still pretty 2 look at.d next day we went on tour w dis lady named soraya who was really chatty n so funny! she curses like a truck driver but is really very alim! she's a cape malay. its easy to get halal food around sbab kt sini ramai muslims. yeay 4 me! i can pengsan klu xmkn meat everyday.

haih..penat la...klu nk citer activity everyday esok pon xabes write. to summarize it all. i saw penguins, seals, dolphins (tp jauh la), ostriches, biawaks, seladang like animals (all wild ones mind u). n i ate n ate n ate. xshop coz it was cuti.xmas pas2 new year, plus d things were quite xpensive. but i did buy a pair o gap leather flats. which turned out to have pig skin lining. crap. siap dah pkai jln2 kt sana. tp pig skin 2 kecik je! wateva la kn. n one o d stwards was mugged at jo'berg. he was held at gunpoint on his was 2 d mall which is only about 7 mins from d hotel. scary x?? pas2 kitorg trus takut nk pg...tp pg jgak..mkn kebab n big mac..kempunan tgk adverts. n ice cream!!

overall! i think south africe is truly a very beautiful place. it was beautiful before, its even more beautiful now! but d gov needs 2 do something bout d crime rate. its crazy n seriously scary. we never ever went out after dark as advised by d locals. as for buenos aires. i didnt like it much thr. firstly! finding halal meat was near impossible! i had kebab which i chose 2 believe was halal tho my dad said it was questionable! i xwas-was k!! the crime rate wasnt as bad as in africa whr dey were really aggresive. but here theres alot o pick pockets. many a time, my dad went back 2 d hotel n discovered his bag was unzipped. menyesal org tuh. dlm bag only got mineral water n lingham chilli sauce!hahaha gatal sgt bukak bag org!papa swears by linghams! n the country is quite dirty. a lot o litters n ramai sgt beggars. kesian. tp takut. thrs dis gang o pick poket-ers called d mustard gang. their modus operandi is 2 (accidently) spill paint all over d victim (mostly tourists) n pretend to help u wipe it off. b4 u know it, they're gone, as is ur wallet, cred cards, handphones n sumtimes even passport. takut.


byk nyer dh tulis. mesti ader org dah tertido. ok b4 i go i show u sum pics ok.
