We started our journey to Kundasang on Friday morning with a short prayer inside the car lead by daddy (to ask for God protection for a safe journey). Had breakfast at Kedai Kopi Kenon, Dongongon..then bila baru mau jalan, I just realized that we forgot to bring our tooth brush & Andrew's flu medicine + his puff & vicks (just incase he has dificulty with his breathing at nite) - tu la last minute punya packing. So balik rumah lagi, luckily we were just nearby...We reached Tuaran town around 11.30 a.m., stopped by at KFC since Andrew didn't eat much during bfast...

It was drizzling and foggy on our way to Kundasang, with low visibility...luckily the kids slept all the way so daddy has a peace of mind while driving....

We reached Kundasang around 2.30 p.m...and our next mission is to find a place to stay for a nite...Just wanted to try our luck actually, so went to Kinabalu Pine Resort (eventhough we know it's fully booked) and ask the lady at the reception counter and still the answer is the same. Tried Strawberry and Rose Cabin, both also fully booked...Finally look for Zen Garden Resort (as recommended by Jurra)...when we got there, the lady @ reception counter told us the only room available are the one with 2 single beds (dinner & bfast included). Since the price is quite reasonable, we didn't ask much...They gave us the Bamboo Executive Suite at room 220 - satisfied with our room. Since it was still drizzling outside, canceled our plan to poring and just stayed in the resort..

After took our bath, went & stroll around the resort & enjoying ourselves with the beautiful scenery of Kundasang while waiting for our dinner at 6 p.m....The dinner was served in ala-carte style..Not bad la the food....taste yummy & fresh...menu for our dinner: Rice, chic curry, mix vege + sweet & sour fish....eventhough the serving is for 2 but just enough to cater for the 4 of us..Later that nite, went down to Ranau town to buy few snacks for us to munch at nite..It was freezing cold especially at nite, didn't even switched on the fan and yet still feeling cold..the temperature could be around 16 - 18 deg celsius....Anyhow, didn't regret at all to stay at this resort....with the reasonable price, beautiful scenery, good accommodation, nice food and most importantly it is located far far away from the hectic life...

Andrew woke up early in the morning surprised to see that he has his diaper on..hehehe...he has stopped from wearing his diapers since he was 2. Reason y he was on diaper: Mom also want to take a break from her duty to kasi shee-shee Andrew bah..holiday mah..

Was satisfied with what is served for breakfast...We checked out around 9.30 a.m. on Saturday and went straight to Poring, Ranau...luckily the weather is fine this time. The kids really enjoyed and had so much fun inside the pool especially the one with the slide...I slide together with Andrew and wow...punya best...punya laju & licin the slide... sakit my bump..Andrew & Andrea were both so excited..they have tried once and mau pigi lagi...dunno how many times we have to slide together with them..*sigh*..Went back around noon and reached KK around 3.30 p.m. Stopped by at Giant Kolombong to have some food...Reached home around 5.30 p.m. and brought back some ole2x from Ranau - vege & fruits (DURIAN).

Really enjoyed our unplanned mini vacation...i think the kids feel the same way too....eventhough it was kinda last minute plan, but everything went quite well & smooth..and I would like to thank God for planning things for us, keeping us safe and in good health, making us happy and laughing throughout our vacation. Here are few pics taken..
