Kota Kinabalu, Sabah : Touring Around

After the island visit, we took the last boat back to Jesselton Point and walked to Warisan Square. It isn't that far after all. Hmm, 15 minutes walk maybe? :D

You'll walk pass this infamous roundabout on the way to Warisan Square

The shuttle ride is free but you'll have to register your name at the bus stop. Jot down your name and your hotel + room number to the people in charge there and they'll pass you the tickets. This is to ensure that the locals don't abuse the free facility, and they wish to give the priority to the tourists. So nice right? :D Oh if the bus is full, you'll have to wait for the following bus as the seats are limited too. To be safe, just be at the bus stop 20 mins earlier.

The bus ticket to 1Borneo.

For more info on the free shuttle ride, refer here.

We had a short nap as soon as we got back to our room and freshened up. Exhausted. :p

Woke up for dinner and walked around the mall to kill time, went back to the hotel again, and called it a day :D

The next morning, we checked out of the hotel around 10am. We opted for the luggage storage service offered by Tune Hotels and paid RM2 per luggage. Refer here for the fee schedule.

Luggage storage tag.

We took the free shuttle to town again to have the last tour around Kota Kinabalu. Restaurants in town are mostly "pork free or lard free". It was so hard for us to look for a halal decent restaurant for brunch. We did some research on the internet and came across Fong Ip cafe, Halal, with good review :)

Till today, i'm still missing the yummy dimsum on the left.
Not sure what is it called, but I called it the "bunjut" dimsum. Ahaha :p

After filling up our tummy with those yummy delicacies, we decided to walk around the town, doing things that locals don't do :p. Visiting the famous tourist attraction spots and historical spots.

We then headed back to 1Borneo. We visited Ron's outlet --- Distro Republic to buy some awesome shirts from him.

Thank you Ron! :D

After bidding farewell, we collected our luggage from the hotel reception counter and waited for our airport shuttle at the lobby.

My in-flight dinner ---Smoked Chicken Focaccia + Hot Tea
Yummehhh :D

With that I end my posts on the trip to Kota Kinabalu, Sabah.
Short, but full of great moments. Sweet experience indeed :)

Btw, all images taken using my iPhone4. Too lazy to carry my DSLR around. Good enough yeh? :3
