The journey from Bukit Jalil began at 2300hrs. The first stop was somewhere in mid point, to pee actually. But then might as well get some coffee and the cold sour sop ice cream perked me up. Probably the only person having ice cream in the wee hours of the wet cold morning.
Another pee stop at one of the petrol stations provide indications that we are fast approaching the end of our drive. Where else would you get offer for "Insurance Thai".
We arrived at the Kuala Perlis jetty at 0530hrs. The coffee shop was just starting its operations. Unload at the jetty, parked the car and rushed for tickets. The first ferry leaves at 0600hrs.
The crowd rushing for the first ferry. About the ferry, if you have to board one of these early morning ones, make sure that you have an extra layer of clothing or a blanket. The air conditioning is freezing. Literally. It felt like being in a cold room.
Ah, finally a breakfast of "putu mayam" on the island itself. Fresh from the steamer. Gorgeous, a pleasant ending to a 500km journey through the night.
