Last weekend, I pegi Muscat. The initial plan was to go and book the ticket utk blk Msia tapi terpikir plak nak jalan2. Alang kepalang dah pegi ke Muscat tu yg plan terus nak g vist Sohar. The journey to Muscat from Sur took almost 3 1/2 hours and disebabkan I menurut peraturan jalanraya yg telah ditetapkan it took nearly 4 hours. I adalah seorang pemandu yg berhemat tapi x dinafikan kekadang tu x sedar ku melebihi had laju yg telah ditetapkan. Biasa laa tu kan...
I drove all the way fr Sur to Muscat. Stop kat Muscat pegi kat travel agent utk book tiket. ohhh tidak, tiket dah abis... mula2 tu dah call book and rupanya dia dah delete nama I coz of 24 jam jer booking then lepas tu dia delete. Amat laa jahat skali. Most probably will take flight cam Air Asia. Ohh amat laa tidak suka skali... tapi dah x de choice dah nak buat cam mana kan. Its going to be a long journey back home Msia and tahu tak x de meal and byk stop. .. Hahahha... Tu laa ngade2 x nak book tiket awal2..ni laa dia. The price of the ticket is getting higher and higher. X ku sangka ramai Arab2 ni nak pegi Msia. Penuh laaa puak2 dia nanti kat sana... serious sampai most of the airlines fully booked!!
Nak tak nak terpaksa la ambik tiket tu. Kalau nak delay lagi jwbnya x blk laa Msia. Ohhh tidakkkk.. mesti and wajib kena balik ni. Sudah x ku tahan dgn homesick duk kat sini..dah 6 bulan tu weh...
Berbalik pada citer tadi, lepas pegi Muscat drive laa plak menuju ke Sohar. This is going to be first time for my friend and I kluar dr Sur beside Muscat. I slalu pegang prinsip "redah and belasah jerr" bila time jalan2 jauh ni. Nak ikutkan kitaorg mmg x pernah pegi sana and x tahu pun jalan nak pegi sana. Tapi ikut signboard jer laa labu..
Best sgt kat Sohar ni.. Bandar Sohar cam laa jugak kat Muscat in terms of highway, environment and yg paling bestnya byk restaurant2 yg menarik and bih shopping malls. Amat laa jeles skali tgk bandar Sohar compare to bandar Sur ku ini.
It took 2 hours journey from Muscat. Bila dah sampai Sohar..pusing2 dulu tgk bandarnya yg cantik itu, then we went ahead to the hotel. Duk pusing2 kat situ x jumpa2 hotel. Siut jerr... rasa macam hari berpusing sedunia jerr.. Kat sana byk betul roundabout and bila sesat jer duk memusing roundabout tu laa berkali2.
Then akhirnya jumpa laa satu budget otel and unfortunely fully booked. Aduhai.. amat tidak bernasib baik skali. Tapi kan receptionist tu kasi a list of the hotel in Sohar with the phone number. Baguskan.. so I called laa 3..4 hotel to check the price and availability. Ada laa 2 hotel still available and the price is between RO18-20 per room. So kalau I share with my friend x laa mahal sgt kan. Yang lawaknya, otel tu kitaorg x tahu pun kat mana ..yg penting book dulu kan..nanti duk tunggu2 x pasal2 kena tido dlm kete.
Then we called our Msian friends there to meet up and went to their house. This Msian friend is such a kind family. We were so comfortable to hang around with them. Biasa laa kan bila dah sampai umah diaorg, lunch kat umah diaorg la plak.. tu laa dah muka x malu sampai sana pun masa lunch our time kan.. dah sah2 laa org suruh lunch skali. Malu ku berkurangan sbb kitaorg pegi umah diaorg bwk buah tgn utk anak2 dia.
A day before pegi sana, kitaorg siap beli brg2 utk buat cupcakes. Mmmm.... buat oreo and cornflakes cupcakes. Cedap laa yg teramat oreo nyer cupcakes even rupanya x seberapa. Kasi kat jiran depan umah my friend skit and bwk utk anak2 diaorg skit. Nanti2 I will post an easiest oreo cupcakes on earth later yer..
Rasa bersalah sgt kat diaorg sbb lunch kat umahd diaorg. Tak pasal2 wife dia kena masak utk kitaorg.. Amat laa memalukan kan?? cuba laa next time bwk ayam ikan kee nak pegi umah org kan?? Then lepas sessi mkn2 then sessi borak2 pasal plan nak g Dubai.
Bincang punyer bincang.. akhirnya... x jd pegi Dubai coz of short notice kan. We decided to stay in Sohar and explore the town. Petang tu blk dr umah diaorg terus pegi check in otel. X de lah jauh sgt dgn umah diaorg...
Hotel tu pricenya RO20. Tu yg receptionist Indian yg ckp laa masa kitaorg tanya and masa I called diaorg ckp RO18.. Siut jer kan?? No way.. nak bargain laa.. I kan suka bab2 bargain ni kan.. No harm trying right? So last tu dia kasi laa RO18.. ohhh masih lagi mahal ..
Pegi laa check bilik and jumpa laa lipas berkejar kejaran and mintak laa lagi kurang and the last price yg dia kasi is RO15. Okey laa... budget otel kan.. Kalau kat Msia for sure dah dpt hotel yg best2 dah dgn harga ni. Tak pe laa labu..yg ni pun x kira bersyukur dah dpt good price drpd nak menyusahkan org kan?? heheheh
Ptg tu kul 6, the host brought us to one taman kat situ. Anak2 diaorg namakan taman tu as " Kampung Boy" . Hehehheh.. Best tak nama nya tu. Cantik gak taman tu... jalan2 laa kat taman tu sambil2 berposing2 dgn diaorg.
Macam real jerr kan??
Yg lawaknya siap naik roller coaster lagi tu bersama kanak2 ribena. Sabor jerr laaa kan...dah lama dah x naik roller coaster...kecut jgk perut ku ini sbb dah lama dah x naik roller coaster kan. X de laa tinggi bebonar tp sbb dah lama x naik kan kecut jgk laa perutku ini.
Mlm tu pegi plak dinner kat one place mkn fried chicken..if not mistaken the place name chicking.. aaa cam tu laa..lepas dinner jln2 plak kat Souq sana. Makkk oiiii... souq dia besar tu compare kat Sur ni. x larat laa nak jalan sbb byk sgt. Silk Store pun byk..rambang mataku dibuatnya. Tapi x pe.. simpan duit dulu..kan nanti nak jalan pegi Dubai.. sabar2
Then mlm tu before blk otel, we all singgah kat one mall called "Lulu". Even jam dah kul 10 lebih pegi jgk laa sbb x nak blk otel tido lagi kan. Lulu tutup kul 12 and still ader masa lagi nak meronda2. Meronda2 and sempat gak laa beli 3..4 brg sebelum tutup kedai. Dashyat kan?? Sempat lagi tu... hehehheh
Next morning pepagi buta dah kluar dlm 7.30am singgah kat Friday market. Sajer laa nak tgk diaorg nyer market. Ramai gak org jual2 barang termasuk laa org jual kambing dan lembu. Amat laa menarik skali kan!! Biasalah most of the sellers are men and bila orang asing seperti kitaorg dtg for sure laa jadi tumpuan.. Cam biasa laa kan..
Then balik market terus pegi Lulu Supermarket jap and carik groceries utk bwk balik. Pusing2 nak g homecentre tapi bukak kul 4.30 laa plak. Terus laa bertolak balik ke Muscat. The journey to Muscat was great, not so many traffic and it went smooth.
Sampai Muscat, terus pegi kat one of the restaurant sbb dah lapar dah for our lunch. Restaurant Traditional Omani Food. We went there before dgn rakyat2 Msia lain dulu and best sgt nasi beriyani kat situ and yg paling best duk dlm bilik makan bersila. So laa privacy kan?
The price of one plate of briyani is RO1,800 and of course laa nasi bertimbun satu pinggan and I think 3 org pun x leh abis nak makan. Tapi mmg sedap laa.. I guess I ate not even 1/4 of the plate..byk. Mana bleh telan sebanyak tu kan.
We left Muscat at nearly 3.30 dah sebab duk pusing2 silap jalan...hahahha. Biasa laa tu kan. Hari berpusing2 sedunia laa katakan.. Then we sefely reached in Sur at nearly 6.30. I drove all the way sbb I mmg suka memandu.
Tahu tak, even I like to drive for a long journey but still laa kan nak kena ader music berputaran di radio. Malang skali..kete ku itu hanya ader radio casseste. Di zaman ini, kat sini still lagi pakai casette ... bleh?? Mana laa I ader stok casette!! Luckily I brought my MP3 along.. x de laa ku kesunyian semasa memandu kan.. If not I will falling asleep too.
Itulah journey ke Sohar.. Mmmm.. was thinking to have another journey again. Sesambil x de nak buat apa ni, baik laa menggunakan masa yg terluang utk menjelajah bumi Oman ni kan!!
I drove all the way fr Sur to Muscat. Stop kat Muscat pegi kat travel agent utk book tiket. ohhh tidak, tiket dah abis... mula2 tu dah call book and rupanya dia dah delete nama I coz of 24 jam jer booking then lepas tu dia delete.

Oreo cupcakes... mmg laa x de rupa kan.. but tasted it first!! U might ask for another one!!
Rasa bersalah sgt kat diaorg sbb lunch kat umahd diaorg. Tak pasal2 wife dia kena masak utk kitaorg.. Amat laa memalukan kan?? cuba laa next time bwk ayam ikan kee nak pegi umah org kan?? Then lepas sessi mkn2 then sessi borak2 pasal plan nak g Dubai.

Nice right.. view of perkampungan dlm taman tu..
Ptg tu kul 6, the host brought us to one taman kat situ. Anak2 diaorg namakan taman tu as " Kampung Boy" . Hehehheh.. Best tak nama nya tu. Cantik gak taman tu... jalan2 laa kat taman tu sambil2 berposing2 dgn diaorg.

I bertukar identity menjadi kanak2 ribena yg riang sbb naik roller coaster..suker..
Mlm tu pegi plak dinner kat one place mkn fried chicken..if not mistaken the place name chicking.. aaa cam tu laa..lepas dinner jln2 plak kat Souq sana. Makkk oiiii... souq dia besar tu compare kat Sur ni. x larat laa nak jalan sbb byk sgt. Silk Store pun byk..rambang mataku dibuatnya. Tapi x pe.. simpan duit dulu..kan nanti nak jalan pegi Dubai.. sabar2
Then mlm tu before blk otel, we all singgah kat one mall called "Lulu". Even jam dah kul 10 lebih pegi jgk laa sbb x nak blk otel tido lagi kan.

Satu dulang tu.. one plate for me and one plate for my friend.. Tgk la mana ader kuah.. tapi kan yg peliknya boleh ku telan begitu sajer.. sos cili pun cedap.. tu dijadikan kuah sbb x pedas
Ni nasiku selepas dimkn.. serious x leh abis.. giler byk tu.. ayam nyerr best walaupun hanya digoreng cam tu jer!! Diparcel ( ditapau) utk bekalan 3 hari stok..
The price of one plate of briyani is RO1,800 and of course laa nasi bertimbun satu pinggan and I think 3 org pun x leh abis nak makan. Tapi mmg sedap laa.. I guess I ate not even 1/4 of the plate..byk. Mana bleh telan sebanyak tu kan.
We left Muscat at nearly 3.30 dah sebab duk pusing2 silap jalan...hahahha. Biasa laa tu kan. Hari berpusing2 sedunia laa katakan.. Then we sefely reached in Sur at nearly 6.30. I drove all the way sbb I mmg suka memandu.
