03:00 AM
Woke up, washed & dressed up. Fed the dogs and refilled their water bowls. Last minute preparations done. JR was quite “excited” as this is our little copen’s first drive to Malaysia. Let’s go!
04:00 AM
We stopped by the Esso Petrol Kiosk along the main road and pumped in $30 of petrol. Called mummy to tell her that we were on the way to her place. They just woke up and didn’t expect us to be on time! HAHA..
04:25 AM
Reached my parents’ place and I went up to chase them down. We went with Papa to Caltex Petrol Kiosk to pump petrol and pump air for the tires. We pumped in another $5 of petrol. We went home and fetch mummy and Didi. Finally, we were on our way…
05:50 AM Tuas Checkpoint
There was already a queue at the Tuas Checkpoint when we arrived. Luckily the queue wasn’t too long.
Papa’s car behind us.
Slightly longer queue at Malaysia’s custom.
We cleared both customs by 06:30 AM! That’s super fast…
Toll at Singapore custom – S$4.60
Toll at Malaysia custom – RM10.80
Highway toll – RM3.90
On our way to my grandparents’ place… We followed Papa’s car.
Beautiful sunrise.
07:35 AM Machap
We took a break at Machap. I was so hungry that I bugged JR to share a packet of Nasi Lemak with me.
YUMMY! Maybe I was hungry…
Nasi Lemak RM2.00; JR had tea and I had milo – RM2.20.
We continued on after 1/2 hour break.
The sky was really clear that morning.
Nice blue sky.
Smoke coming out of nowhere.
Big advertisement on Hup Seng Cream Crackers.
Clear road behind.
JR seemed tired.
