09/03/09(Day 3)

So, today wil be our las day here!! My flu also quite better, no more fever!! After having breakfast n check-out.. our las destination was plan goin' to Rantau Panjang. But b4 tat when on da way- around 20km left, we stop for buy some dodol (according to da sign board on da road).

Alang-alang di sini, don't miss out to see a big building house-2 floor in green color enfold wit gold n been touched by da art landscape fulled wit Siamese elements! Itulah kediaman Hajah Wan Sabariah dan Haji Ismail yang memang cukup trkenal di Kelantan sbg pengusaha serunding n dodol. Even its quite hard to understand wat da owner said, really.. :P but he was so nice n really appreciate all da people tat came to buy his dodol. He also just let other people to watch by ur own how da dodol n serunding was made!! My mum cukop suka la ngan dodol nie.. Borong abis!! N da price also was so cheap..

**600gram for original (gula melaka)-RM3.50

**600gram for durian flavour-RM4.00

**600gram for pandan flavour-RM3.50

Ok, then back to our journey.. Rantau Panjang for me some sort like 'Padang Besar' also! A lot of shops, selling clothes.. shoes.. home instruments, barang2 org nk kawin!! Da town has a duty-free shoppin' area where u can find electronic goods, cigarettes n clothes. Da best ting is-it is da major border crossing between Malaysia n Thailand for the East Coast of Malaysia. Da town on da Thai side across the Golok River which forms da boundary between da two countries is Sungai Kolok. (Golok ka Kolok..? Konfius daaa)

A bridge links Rantau Panjang n Sungai Kolok. Da Malaysian immigration is right in da middle of town just before da bridge. Most people without their own transport walk across da border. For me again, there is not much to see in tis town. If borders fascinate u, take a walk down to da Golok River near da bus n taxi station (walk in between the rows of shops).

U wil b right on da border between Malaysia n Thailand n u wil b able to see how many people, n goods (rice from Thailand, consumer goods from Malaysia), cross da border without da hassles of immigration n customs. All tis goes on under da watchful eyes-MATA2 (well, they wil have to b closing one eye for tis to happen) of da border guards. If u are not from da area, it is advisable NOT to exit or enter Malaysia in such a manner. (pa lagi.. berenang tru sungai la jwbnya!!)

Not so much we spending our 'riyal' here.. Only my mum felt a little bit disappointed, bcoz she tellin' tat @Pengkalan Kubor da home instruments- for plates, bowls all tis kind of equipments are more attractiveness n cheaper. (iya ka..?) Then she thought tat at Rantau Panjang, she can get more better.. but she was wrong!! Wat to do mak.., takkan kita nk patah balik..? "Ambik jelah..!" my father said to her.

After taking our lunch over there- pekena nasi goreng daging merah, wahhh sedap betoi.. we slowly went back to Penang. It so nice to b here in Kelantan!! So many places to go.. so much memories to b remember! I love da shoppin' moment (even soo penat), love da bargains.. Ery telling me tat he was so in love wit 'nasi kerabu'.. da taste was so different wit da one tat we buy from 'pasar malam' here! My parents, they're so in love wit da environments tat not so constructive (membangun-byk masih di tokok lama).

Never mind, tat was some of our tinkin' facts.. I hope soo i'll b back to Kelantan, in good conditions (sehat walafiat, insyaallah).. wit more 'riyal'!! hehe of course..
