anniversary ride thailand... ko samoi 20110203-20110206

destination: ko samoi
total kilometers: 2200

it was an anniversary ride actually. i mean last year we went to songkla.. 3 of us in the same month. me, anjemang and dato h. at that time i just got my zx14, dato h with his rabbit(rabbit already gone with the wind). but this year we have another follower ca'aa(i did not get his real name yet. and i know he only knows my name as tommy.. hahhahah). after almost a year we have been planning to come here. but never happened. i told dato h, whatever it is i am gonna hit the road during this cny. dstination unknown but foresure its up north. i dont care this time. mannn... what the hell is wrong with the plan... 'we going we staying we going we staying'- one of the dialog in armegeddon if i am not mistaken. i was on the road on the 3rd/2 to kb. gotta run some errant in kb before hitting the road. waiting for anjemang and caa'a in rantau panjang on the 4th. been waiting fopr more than 2 hours i guess since their bike got problem with the pressure.
participants:
anjemang..(sedih ke jiwe ni???? ke dok rok???)
dato h..
ca'aaa....

tommy... masang cettung kena cabut topi dekak imigreseng...
on your mark, gets at..... hahhhaa at the fuel station before entering the border.... delayed a bit with the imigration and rtd. the procedure is different between here and danok...

tommy is smilling. problem solved maaa.... as usual i ask them where to eat... anjemang knows thats my habbit. eating is my priority. we endup having dinner in golok. i am not sure the name of the restaurant .. pok derih.. something like that.... good food... marvelous... as usual... i never regret eating in thailand...

after the dinner, we hit the road agian. about 8pm we left golok. kinda spooky when you know the hiway you gonna go thru is at war. hahhahah.. i mean the places like narathiwat and pattani is unstable. snipers are shooting at people. one of the villager told us a few days ago, someone got shot by snipers. but luckily he is alive. anyway, 3 of us... we rode.. anjemang always in front. we passed more than 10 army road blocks i guess. everything was fine. we arrived safe and sound in hat yai. dato h was sleeping when i got in the room. da to h was already in hatyai since he came in thru danok. danok is only about 1 hour from hatyai. i took off my clothes and adios amigos... sailing... (dato h mumbling in the morning.. he said he just feels like sleeping beside a boat(bot nambang hok g kuala mamang oor). hahahha.. i was to  tired man... tired of riding is one thing.. tired of waiting for anjemang hahahahah....

we left hat yai about 11 am... guess what i had for breakfast.... roti telor with susu pekat maaaa..... hahahhah anyway, in terengganu we use to eat roti canai with sugar you know.

checking the pressure again... both anjemang and ca'aa bike were having problem with the pressure... hehhehe what to do.. BEE ENGGG maaa.... (look at that GTR... smiling you know.. no problem)

still working on it... the funny thing is the gauge we use produce different reading from the bike meter....

about 4pm after sun bathing for 4 hours we arrived in at the jetty... we were welcome by the receptionist. one of them is arifah. she is a muslim. easier for to ask about the muslim food on the island. cost 250 baht for each bike to get in to the island. we confirmed the hotel as well....

look at that lady. he is looking at dato h all the way since he got in... biasalah dato h is a jambu boy. among us we call him dato h aka jambu boy.

bolok aghok sekali booking hotel.....

i am just a book keeper... they ask to pay i will pay...( normally when we have trips, we pool the money. i got the job)

hehheheh i like... lame la dok gini....

this is the best part... hehheeh while walking outside the ferry office i notice a lady collapsed in the parking lot. immediate i went to get her. she is still concious at that time... as usual i ask her whether she can hear me and asked for name as well. thank god she still can answer me well. sabrina(that her name) got dehydrated actually. i carried her to the office with the help of the bus driver... dato h notice the situation... that how i got these two pictures hahahahha....

at the jetty while waiting for the ferry...
   
   
   
view from the ferry... basically malysia got better view i guess. but we need to improve on the marketing of our resources... giang saghoh.... 

we arrived in ko samoi almost dawn...

dinner first... as requested by me and suggested by arifah hahahahha.... small restaurant with good food. seafood... fresh and juicy....
          peeewwwiiiiiitttttttttttt..............
sunset in manhattan.. oppsssss in kosamoi...                     anjemang... teringak ke sape towwww????? picture of the year ning..... dont pray2

dinner time.... photo taken by bystander .. muslim girl named ma... surprisingly... still a lot of muslims in this island.. 'speaking melayu pun buleh abe wehhh.... ' normal sentence when you are southern thailand...


before...

after...
supper time... at red scrapper... supper??? looks like dinner to me hahahaha we spent only 140 hinggit.... thats cheap you know...
the beach is naked.. not the people....
the beach..... we have much more beautiful beach maaa.... if you believe me go to rantau abang or kuala abang. white sandy beach... but not enough promotion. most people dont know. in fact local people do not know that we have very beautiful beach.

jenni the receptionist.... mannn... bile la malaysia customer service can beat thailand or at least at par.... the way she handle complaints, greets, excellente....... not to say the language barrier...

where we stayed...

we stoped by the road side... tourist point.... can see half of the island beach...

gemok la aku.....

dato h and his long lost relative from china...... looks a like ayye.....
on the way home to the jetty... we have to pass a few villages... i can say its like township.... the pictures taken from my hp...

ca'aaa .... always swich the bike with anjemang... sport tourer maaaa...

handsome jambu boy from bukit istana in ko samoi.... hehhehe



ready to be deported.... at ko samoi jetty to donsak


tired but enjoyed the ride....


dalam barisangggg......... not bulatangggg




unique design... we stopped here for prayer both ways... i am impressed with the architectural...

this most is more than 300 years of age. first middle east design.... got history here. a lot of people died here... to be a muslim in southern thai may be is not as easy as a muslim in malai....


really a long ride so far.... but not long enough.... gtr didnt give any problem to me so far. powerful and comfortable. for those who are thinking of getting gtr.. you wont regret. the choice is yours. every bike got their own pros and cons i believe. right now my gtr is at chear for service.... plus spa. wont ride her for a few weeks.
