today was a fairytale ♥

It started out as a joke. It was supposed to be a movie and a meal at Secret Recipe. That's it. but we ended up getting a car for half a day so what the hell, we went nuts! haha...

1. Movie at One Plaza

We started of with a movie. Fright Night. It was fairly good actually. Even though I'm not a big fan of remakes (but that's just cz original is always best) but I enjoyed the movie. It was about how this boy discovers that a vampire is living next door, and in the end sets out to hunt him down so he could turn his girlfriend (who got bitten by the vampire) into a real live human again.
(I needed to pee no. 1)

2. Grocery shopping at Tesco on a No Plastic Bag day! Oh no!
After the movie, we were supposed to go watch another movie but nothing seemed good (there wasn't much choice and the seating wasn't good) so we ended up going to Tesco instead. He wanted to get toothpaste, so we went in without a basket, but came out with two packets of Lays Salt & Vinegar (I'm addicted okay!), a packet of instant noodles, a bottle of shampoo, and the tube of toothpaste.-_-"

3. Pantai Remis
Then, we wanted to have dinner at this awesome Seafood place at Pantai Remis but didn't know the name of the restaurant so we followed my Garmin all the way to the Pantai Remis Food Court which was right by the beach. When we got there, the sun set was beautiful.  And even though it wasn't the place we were looking for, I didn't mind being lost. I didn't mind  it one bit!  Breathing in the sun and the sea with him holding my hand made me feel like I've been found. He then called his friend and we got the name of the actual place and Garmin-ed over there (I still can't believe it actually works!).

4. A HUGE seafood dinner at Aroma Ikan Bakar, by the beach


We had a humongous dinner at Aroma Ikan Bakar. Just for two, we picked out 3 crabs, a whole calamari squid, kailan ikan masin and two plates piled with rice. I was worried he'd puff up like Mrs. Puff from the seafood cz he was allergic but he said he had bought along his medicine just to prevent that from happening. I was full to the brim and very very happy. Dinner by the beach was nice, nicer because if the supper yummeh food, and nicest because he was there with me :)

5. Kampung Kuantan, Firefly Park

The next stop was probably the highlight of the whole day. We went to Kampung Kuantan Firefly Park. We got there at around just the right time. We had to take a boat (sampan) in the crocodile infested waters  where we got to get right up close to the fireflies living in the mangrove trees. Its kinda like being in iCity, like seeing gazillions of beautiful fairy lights wrapped around the trees like on Christmas but actually they looked more like real fairies to me, especially the ones that were flying around like teeny little fireballs. It felt like I was looking at the Faraway Tree in the Enchanted Forest from one of Enid Blytons books. It was so magical it was almost bewitching. I used to imagine a place like that existed. I think it does now:)



6. KFC Ijok
We went to Ijok to get my babes some KFC. Thank you him for being willing to drive up there so I could tapau stuff for my friends, and for temaning me go to the creepy toilet right at the top of the stairs in there. yikes! I'm so sorry I needed to pee all the time -_-"


7. Alif Firdaus
Our last stop was the kedai mamak. It was still too early to go back so we went to Alif Firdaus, bought drinks and munched on Cheezy Wedges and jelly ice-cream while watching football. Kinda like desert to the whole day. A nice quiet ending to the sum up the amazing day.

Thank you Garmin, and thank you You. These 7 places I went with you, this one whole day I spent with you, driving round, getting lost, has made me the happiest girl alive. Thank you for being the one to bring me on my first visit to the Firefly Park even though I've been stuck here for a long time already (far too long to not go there before). It was awfully romantic, though the thought that we are on a little boat surrounded by crocodile infested waters did make it a little creepy. Hehe... but it was worth every minute! My only regret is that I didn't bring any of my cameras with me. I only had my phone. But at least I got to steal this one of you!

 

I could go anywhere with you and I'd be happy :)
