I went to Lumut last Saturday with some friends as a quick getaway. They wanted to go somewhere with a beach ... but since everyone was only free after 3pm - and I feel that beach experiences are only good in the mornings 'til late noon (ok call me weird; fine) - so we settled for someplace with a shoreline instead :mrgreen:
I'll save talk on the journey there. Suffice to say, it's pretty uneventful save for a brief stop to get some takeaway bubur kacang merah and bubur kacang hijau at a roadside stall near Bandar Seri Iskandar which caught my attention on my previous trips to the seaside. Oh - I'd like to make it known for those of us who don't do the Ipoh-Lumut route often: beware of speed traps along the way. The stretches in the Manjung district are a popular haunting ground for traffic cops and the JPJ :???: Observing speed limits and such, the trip takes about an hour and a half from Ipoh. I can sense the speedster CN members here rolling their eyes at me now ...
