A Road Trip over the weekend

The road trip started on a Saturday, with 3 of us driving down to Terengganu then to Cherating. Of course, we stayed over at Terengganu after a 7 hours car ride. Then leave to KL on a Sunday, stayed over the night and continue our journey on Monday.

It was then the 2 of us, we left for Melaka, then to Kluang then an impromptu decision to S'pore. The stop at S'pore was supposedly to be done on Tuesday but because I decided we should head to S'pore at least we have a few hours to shop! So to s'pore we drove, without any S'pore dollars in hand!!

Since it was our first time driving to S'pore, it was a little havoc for us. We need to purchase VEP(Vehicle Entry Passes) something like the Touch n Go card in KL at the immigration and thinking they will accetp NETS or credit card. Too bad, the immigration doesn't accept any of those so both of us approached the public to change Msian to S'pore dollars! haha The guy was of course confused by us at first but we managed to change S$50.

Then, thinking she can remember the roads, we drove around looking for the hotel. Of course, we got lost! hahaha but it was fun! Driving in a foreign country. Almost had an accident because one freak run the red lights when my side was green!!! I must say, the buses and taxis there are almost like KL. They are the KING of the roads!

It was just a fun but tiring weekend with the road trip. I think with we can accumulate the hours of driving/being in the car. The total comes up to 28 hours of driving in 4 days!!! TIRING HUH!!

Will tell more when the time is near, as this road trip is for a work purpose =)
