Malacca to Taiping,Perak


February 15th 2010

It's a Chinese custom that all married daughter return/visit their parents on the second day of lunar calendar. After returning to Melaka for the reunion dinner and celebration thus HB, PS and I left for Taiping, Perak after taken our home cooked lunch.Upon reaching the Alor Gajah Toll Plaza, there were bumper to bumper queue for existance. Of course, we didn't join in the crowd but instead took the old road. From Seremban, we headed for the North South Expressway and to our disappointment, take a look at the pix below:

We were soon joining the massive traffic jam. Festive jam in regardless of which race you belong to.Being on the road for two hours, we stopped at Puchong, own home for HB to shower and taking a break before the journey moves on to Taiping.
It was half past three in the afternoon and traffic had eased going to the North for both directions.
Lata Kinjang waterfall from the North South Expressway.
Heard the ambulance siren,from our back to the front. The ambulance was rushing to Ipoh which was the nearest destination.
Cars making way for the ambulance to move with the marble mountain as named by PS in front.
Our journey was make fast and smooth by following the back of the ambulance.
By twenty minutes past six in the evening, we finally reached the oldest railway station in Taiping,Perak.Welcome to Taiping, the wettest town in Malaysia!
