Story of Brunei

You might or might not know that my family decided to go on a road trip to Brunei.

Yea... my family is one very "geng" family... they actually want to travel to Brunei by road *___*

So we left Tawau and traveled all the way to KK, stopping by in Ranau for KFC/lunch. Actually it was okay for me because I mostly slept on the way, but my poor daddy and mommy had to drive (alternately)

Stayed the night in KK and went to Suria to shop. Didn't buy anything because I wasn't in a shopping mood~ IDK why..

Next day was travelling again to Limbang. Cross the border of Sabah-Sarawak for the first time. The funny thing is, the immigration was so LOSE/TIDAK KETAT. Do you know what  I mean??? People just cross the border like nobody's business =.= When our car pass by, they don't even bother to ask us for Passport (what???) then my mom had to get down from the car and go to the immigration booth (it's a drive-thru) to ask the person to Stamp us "keluar sabah"

No wonder we have so many illegal immigrants... nobody cares at the border 0__0

Then we masuk Sarawak and they stamp for us again... then after awhile we reached Lawas. From Lawas to Limbang we have to pass by Brunei (please refer to the Sarawak map) so we actually went in and out of Brunei to get to Limbang LOL! But that part of Brunei was really er... underdeveloped?? *and we thought they were rich*

Stayed a night in Limbang and we head to Bandar Seri Begawan in the early morning. It was the 3rd day of Raya in Brunei (4th day in Malaysia). The town was pretty nice... but they don't have that much shopping complex as compared to Singapore or even Malaysia and the complexes close at 9pm - 9.30pm (so early!)

Here are some pictures of the places of interest in Brunei ^^

Anyway, because it was raya many of the attractions were closed... too bad =(

BUT, at least we got to visit the Istana Nurul Iman (where the Sultan of Brunei lives) and makan makan (due to rumah terbuka for raya) there haha =) it was a nice experience!
