24-27/11/07 - Kuala Selangor

To made my 2 months boring holidays more happening, I ‘ve joined my previous church’s retreat trip to Kuala Selangor , which cost RM100 of my salary . We took off in the noon by cars and van. It took only 2 hours from Nilai to reach Kuala Selangor. Almost 60 of us stayed in rented apartments near Patai Indah . The apartment is well managed and clean . There’s mini gym, swimming pool and also a canteen. Besides, there’s 3 rooms, 2 restrooms , kitchen an a huge living room in each apartment . It is suitable for camp or family trip. We could easily enjoy the magnificient beach view from the apartments balcony . Although the beach is just located behind the apartments , it took a 10 minutes walk to reach there.

Took this pictures from the apartment’s balcony

To my amazed, unlike other beaches so far I’ ve been to, this beach is like a seashell’s graveyard .

I wonder should I called it a beach or a sea shell graveyard ?

I guess Kuala Selangor is famous with it’s seafood. As I walked along the beaches I saw people selling ‘tiram’ , variety of it .Some residents told me they sell ‘tiram’ for living.Every morning they would go to the sea to search for ‘tiram’ and oyster . It remind me of the novel ‘ The Pearl’ . Haha……

The seller told me the names of all kinda tiram but……I can just remember 1.....

Tiram KUPANG !!!! I don’t dare to eat actually…….u can get fresh oyster here too!

Pasar Malam .....foooooood !!!

He stared at me as if I want to steal his ‘unkown’ tiram

Of course I managed to have some other food made by sea food from the pasar malam
Heard before?…..otot-otot and sata (I don’t know how to spell ler….)

Yum....yum.....

You can even enjoy your food while enjoying Kuala Selangor’s sunset......dessert!

Of course can’t miss the chance to eat……CRAB too……kari fried crab

The crab are damned ‘fat’ and ‘juicy’……

Our pastor brought us to one of the famous hill- Bkt Malawati . Although its not a really high hill , we can see the whole Kuala Selangor – of course very nice view !!!

There’s a lot of friendly monkey too……we managed to grab pics with those famous ‘stars’. Some even posed for us to take pics.

The main purpose we went to Kuala Selangor is to visit the firefly park. From the mainland, we took a small and ‘soundless’ speed boat to tour around the river banks to see bunch of ‘christmas trees’ – its actually fireflies on the trees. Its magnificient ! This was the first time I saw such ‘thing’ . I start to ponder about God’s magnificient creation……

If u'r lucky u might get some fireflies surrounding u.....

Kuala Selangor town is quite a small one. Peaceful and quiet …..u ll like it if u’r peace lover…
The trip was so worthy ........ speechless !!!
