trip : 12-14 june 2009
destination : padang & bukit tinggi, indonesia
family entourage : mama, pak long, am (my bro) & me
wow! my 2nd trip of the year! last march pegi pulau redang, kali ni ke padang & bukit tinggi, indon. mmg hajat di hati nak pegi bukit tinggi yg kat pahang tuh, yg ada village ala-ala perancis la, jopun laa.. ghupo2 ehh, poie bukit tinggi boto2 plaks! mcm 'menjejak kasih' keturunan minangkabau pung ado.. hehehe.
talk about leisure and shopping, these places is marvellousss!! and... DEFINITELY for ladies!! (smp terpakso den guno kredit kad bershopping! ahaks!). so, let see ape kitorg buat kat sana:
12 jun:
departure @ 7.50 am, seawal 5 pagi dah smp kat airport. kul baper bangun sendiri mau pikir laa.. haha; arrival @ padang @ 8.30 am waktu padang (means 9.30 waktu malaysia. they're 1-hour late than malaysia).
first stop, air terjun lembah anai - ala2 air terjun lata kinjang kalu kat mesia sbb tepi jalan.
 
lunch then proceed to our 2nd stop, rumah gadang @ rumah besar kalu bahasa standard malaysia. dlm bahasa minang, gadang @ godang = besar. this place kalu ikut dolu2 mcm rumah panjang kaum sarawak la. 5 to 6 families live together in 1 house.
me, mama, am & pak long
enough places of interest, our 1st shopping stop - puteri minang. masing2 lepas geram kat sini. embroidery products such as kain, telekung mmg berganda2 cheaper dari malaysia. worth a trip. aku sendiri sambar 4 helai kain/baju kat sini utk adik, kakak kat mesia (kakak=bibik, kak long & sara. stopover again on the way to padang dah x cukup rupiah, tu yg guno kt kad tuh, hahahha) skali dgn baju 3 org hero kat mesia (abg, adik & aiman) sbg upah jaga fina  x ckp shopping lagi, lepas lunch we proceed to our 2nd & 3rd stop, lindungan bulan & anisah. during lunch i was introduced to sambal hijau. a must-haves dish kalu makan masakan padang and sedappp!!! and lagi satu, skali hidang masakan padang nih, lauk saja nak dkt 10 macam! mmg banyak pilihann!!
where's my sambal hijauu???
back to shopping story, same products of different varieties. harga lebih kurang. tapi kat anisah, exclusive products. mcm kalau kat mesia ni, kedai2 batik ekslusif gittewww... but indeed, design cantik2 cuma ongkosnya lebih mahal pakss.. tapi itu tidak menghalang aku menyambar selai blouse di siniii, hehehehe... cukup la shopping 3 tompek tuh haa, checked-in our hotel @ bukit tinggi, Hotel Pusako. a 4 star hotel tapi lebih bagus standard dari sri malaysia okehh... worth a stay!
malam, dinner & minangkabau cultural show.
13 jun:
3rd stop, ngarai sianok lobang jepang @ lubang jepun.
this is where the japanese hid masa british (or is it dutch?) invasion smp la hiroshima & nagasaki dibom. difahamkan there are 7 such holes and yg bukak bukan semua la. panjang terowong can reach up to 6 km and ketinggian dari aras jalan around 2 km. tourist will need to climb down (and up) 132 steps anak tangga to reach terowong. masa turun ok la, masa naik aduhaii.. 'capek'@penat jugak dibuek ehh, hehehe.
lepas jalan² dlm tunnel, jalan² atas plak, shopping lagiks! ter'lontar'@terbelanja kain baju lagi seblom pegi lunch, hahaha. introduced to more traditional dishes of padang, ayam pok and ikan gurami bakar. pung sodappp!! ayam pok nih xtau le cemana nak ckp, a whitish dish, mcm ayam rebus je tapi x rasa mcm ayam rebus pun, rasa mcm masak gulai. ikan gurami plak sebena nye ikan kaloi dibakar tapi sambal dia mmg sodappss!
4th stop, jam gadang, again maksudnya jam besar. .
mcm jam kat bangunan sultan salahuddin kl tuh je aku tgk but without the buildings la. clock tower basically and this is one of bukit tinggi's landmarks. ada pasar which sells souvenirs at the lowest prices compared dgn those yg jual kat proper stores. so, kalu korang nak beli souvenirs this is the place. mmg murah banding ngan tempat lain (hishh, nyosaa plak boli keychain 10 biji yor... rugi 10 koping lagi sobab boli kek tompek lain). so, me myself sambar keychains & baju for my nephews (daniel & danish). selesai di jam gadang, off we go for lunch then proceed to padang.
dalam perjalanan, stopover @ durian stall pekena durian bukit tinggi. durian bukit la katakann, it's finger lickin' good, hehehe...
smp di padang @ 5 pm waktu indon, tarus checked-in hotel, The Ambacang Hotel. agak nye hotel ni buat atas tapak dusun bacang kot, hehehe... a 3 star hotel again tapi mcm 5 star. malam, dinner then ke lake bayur. asalnya nak tgk sunset tapi sbb dah golap, tgk lampu yo lahhh... lake bayur ni is a port actually. xleh la nak describe keindahannya sbb x nampakk except for the neon lights...
14 jun:
checked out hotel,
kami ke gerai kripik bilado @ kerepek berlada @ kerepek pedas la senangg.. hahaha. pak long je sambar 2,3 paket kerepek tapi aku dak aiihh, boli kek ambon@sarang semut je bawak balik.
from there, 5th stop, pantai padang.
tapi tgk dr dlm bas aje sbb panas. mcm pantai kat mesia la tapi bukan mcm pd. dari dalm bas tgk air biru gile, pasir putih, kalu turun musti mcm pantai redang kot?
lalu plak jambatan siti nurbaya but i'm yet to find out the story behind it.
on the way to our restaurant for lunch @ lubuk idai (@ pusat bersidai, hahahha... ni translation aku ngan am), round2 bandar padang.
one thing i can conclude, ALL government buildings MUSTI bumbung meruncing mcm tanduk kerbau. mmg menyanjung adat boto diorg nihh.. ALL, not a single exception. kalu the whole building x dpt wat cam tuh, the main building. otherwise, guard house pun jadiks!
stopover @ our last shopping place, silungkang & pandai sikek. apo laie, last kopek la masing2. ndak plak baru discover aku ada Rp200 lagik (sbb airport tax rupenye dah include dlm pakej & RM10=Rp28,000), sambar plak kain kebaya solaii... hehehe, puas 'melontar' @ berbelanja, off we go for lunch then to the airport to head home.
all i can say, u'll never get tired of bukit tinggi & will definitely go again, insya allahh...
anyway, credit to mama yg me'nyupport' (nih laa padah ehh bm+bi  ) trip kali nih sempena hadiah persaraann (aiman ke beijing, adik ke bandung)... patutnye kitorg yg bagi kan, hahahaha  nak bagi lagi pung bulehhh, hehehe
so, ap, intan, raiz, bukit tinggi ke langkawi? hahaha... hadi dah pilih bukit tinggi, hehehe.
