Kuching Town

DSC_5459

Its another outstation work trip and this time its all the way to East Malaysia! And i'm proud to say that I've been to every state in Malaysia *grin* In a nutshell, Kuching seemed to be a small and simple town. Not too much of a busy and occupied environment. Maybe KL's rush hour traffic jam is just bad for mentality.

Took me a few tries to get this shot right. Ever noticed those gift shops where they don't allow photographing? Yeah, I did that anyway, since I have no intention of stealing their 'interior' or souvenier designs. Its the same damn friggin keychain in every shop. Anyway, just hang the camera around your neck and rest both of your palms on top of it. Now just pretend you're looking closely at an item while you use you index finger to autofocus and press the shutter release. Of course you must turn off your AF-assist light.

This is Waterfront...because its in front of the river. Nvm that, but seriously thats the name of the place.

A 50 cents boat ride across the river(the one beside Waterfront). Same rate as crossing to Taman Negara at Pahang. DIfference is that this ride seemed more worth while
