From the Kuala Perlis jetty after boarding the final ferry back to the mainland, we then proceeded to Syukur’s family home for some absolutely delicious home cooked dinner prepared by his mum.



Macam ‘happy family photo’ la pulak kan? Kena lak baju Pinky boleh boria lak dengan baju anak buah Syuk ni

The following morning, we travelled to the bordertown of Bukit Kayu Hitam not far from Pinky’s place.

Alang-alang dah sampai border takkan cuma nak posing-posing dekat tembok aje kan?

Chen didn’t bring his passport so Hamdi stayed with him & did a bit of shopping at Bukit Kayu Hitam while Pinky, Beruang Madu and me walked across to the Thai bordertown of Dannok.

Just a short walk away from Malaysia and yet the scenes, food, clothes and culture are so drastically different.

Tak gheti lak nak makan ayam goreng dgn pulut so kitorang ratah ayam ni camtu aje lah

Thanks to the flood of Malaysians making their way to Dannok for some cheap food, clothes, household items and various other less family-oriented nightime activities, Malaysian currency is the preferred currency at this town.


Kelalar lak nengok kepala ikan-ikan ni lentok camni



And after a couple of hours of tasting the foods at Dannok and filling several plastic bags with snacks, fruits, cheap T-shirts and shorts it was time to go back across the border and pack for our return to KL after the end of the very memorable trip.

A special thanks to Beruang Madu, Hamdi, Pinky, Chen, Syukur & Dikla for being such great company during this trip and making it 10 times more fun with your presence. A special thanks to Pinky & Dikla for being such gracious hosts at Pinky’s brand new beautiful house, and also to their parents for inviting us to their family home for a fabulous dinner on our first night up north. Thanks also to Syuks & his family for the also fabulous dinner on our last night there.
