D9 was the most challenging
day; I would need to drive from Batu Ferringi to Bayan Lepas airport. I would
have to pass through the Bayan Lepas industrial area during rush hour. 2 routes
were available – the balik pulau route and the Jalan Sultan Azlan Shah route. I
had tried out the Balik Pulau curvy mountain route and considered it as more
risky to drive early in the morning. I decided to do an early start and go
through the Jalan Sultan Azlan Shah route. Everything was smooth until I took a
wrong turn at a junction along Jalan Macalister; I had stumbled myself into a
route near an Indian temple. The next day was Thaipusam and the route was
filled with followers. It took me a good 20min to make a U-turn back to the
main road.
I was lucky to
make it to Bayan Lepas Airport and made the key drop for the Innova in time.
The flight back to
KLIA2 was smooth however I had had a hard time picking up the car. The staff had
messed up with the booking and it took us a good 1hr before we hit the road. We
took a quick tour around Putrajaya and we later proceeded to the local church
at the Jalan Air Panas. The local church there had kept a very very low profile
to avoid unnecessary attention from the locals.
We managed to get
back to Klang before the rush hour and had a “luxurious” dinner at a restaurant
located in Klang Parade.
I had my second Yu
Shang dish. Yu Shang was one of my favorite dishes in the past, however the
taste had changed. I still remembered during those old days, a master chef
would be responsible for the preparation and there was always a red and green
packet of spice in the dish. Nowadays, you can get a pack of Yu Shang from the
supermarket and DIY in the house.
I was a little
worn off after the dinner….while Ving and my friends preparing for the final
packing that night, I had thanked the great one to allow me to execute this
daring journey without any major mistake.
We had left my
brother in law’s house at 5am and reached KLIA2 before 6…the rest of the flight
was unremarkable….
