SATURDAY DATE...

I must be nuts. I am now addicted to Anita's Prediction. Yes, that is Facebook's own clairvoyant or fortune teller hehehe. There's something fascinating about being told of one's own future. I do know that it is something one shouldn't take seriously, but hey what the heck. This is a game after all.  Well, mine today read as:

the beautiful Mount Kinabalu, taken from a moving car..

"Angie honey, tired of the view? It's time to explore what's out there. Hop on the bus, catch a train, go for a bike ride - no matter what, don't stay in the same place. A change of venue does wonders for your spirits and your love life."

What! As if it knows I am going on trip, well ok, it is not confirmed but as Anita's recommendation seems to affirm it,  perhaps there's a chance.

You see, this coming Saturday, 10 Dec. 2011, my sister and I  are supposed to go to Ranau for the durian fiesta!  This fiesta is held every year, and this time 8 to 10 December 2011. Now, the tricky part is, we need a driver.. my hubby but he has not said yes, so it's sort of hanging somewhere uhuuu.

Nothwitstanding, wish us a safe trip.. if jadi lah. Going up that Crocker Range and looking at the spectacular views, to be seemingly up close and personal with Mt Kinabalu, cool temperate climate - what could be more refreshing! The almost 3 hours drive on that long and winding road to Ranau can be quite tricky though,  as usually there will be many huge trucks ferrying their goods to the east coast of Sabah, to towns like Sandakan, Tawau, Lahad Datu.  So, it can be quite testing at times, especially for impatient drivers, finding themselves reduced to a snail-like speed,  trailing behind these huge trucks laden with goods, gas tanks, even cars!

To all those taking a trip to Ranau, be patient, overtake only when road is absolutely clear. Have a safe trip..

Cheers
