30th June...

On the 30th June 2009, i spent my birthday doing the extraordinary. I went for a boat ride across the Sarawak river in Waterfront..it has been ages since i took my first boat ride across the river..i guessed it was in primary school...it was a fine weather for the ride and it was worth the trip.

To be honest i am scared of the water for i could not swim (thats an honest confession :P)..and i always fear that the sampan @ penambang as what we in local Kuching people said would turn and capsize under my weight..imagine the boat was rocking from side to side once i masuk the penambang...( touch wood touch wood)

Thats the new DUN @ state assembly hall ...the new one..

Thats the Sarawak river....the famous Waterfront...

Part of Waterfront...is a long pathway....not sure how far...maybe around 2 rounds of a normal stadium? :D

Along the banks of Waterfront...on the left the famous PENAMBANG..hehe..thats Hilton behind and the Golden Triangle of Kuching...

Thats me before boarding my flight onto the PENAMBANG...50 sen per ride..:)

Thats how the look from inside the PENAMBANG...

From behind...

View from across the river at the jetty...hotels in front...:)

Row row row your boat..gentle down the stream @ river

So thats how i spend my morning on the 30th of June 2009....going for a boat ride..anyone interested giving it a try? :D
