I was on my way towards east-coast of peninsular, when spots of vermilion scatter upon the cirrus clouds as though making announcement of the rising sun..

A superfast trip to Kuantan
6:50 am depart from home, the traffic was already building up while twilight dusk is shedding off, and at 9:30am I managed to arrived safely at my meeting place with 2 pit stops along the way (toll booths not counted). Went for pre-inspection from 10:00 to 11:00am, then the meeting start at 11:15am which later end roughly around 12:45 which followed with post-meeting discussion for half an hour and everybody adjourn for lunch break.
Lunch? nothing fancy just typical afternoon lunch for Malaysians consist of white rice, a serving of vegetable, and choices of fish or chicken.Anyway, it was a quick lunch as I was expected to cover other parts of the site for post-meeting inspection. So, I made it back to my car at 2:30 and drove off for a quick refuelling and hit the hiway at 2:50pm. Managed to reach the final exit of East-Coast Hiway at a record time of and immediately reach for DUKE and straight into NKVE, with main target to avoid the bulging congestion at NKVE when the clock strike 5, so I managed to reach Subang Jaya at 5:05pm. For that, I reward myself a rich mochiatta coffee..yummms!!

Karak - to and fro
Karak intersection - its toll booth via east-coast highway, to and fro! It'll be the end of winding road if you are coming from Kuala Lumpur, but it will be the beginning of it - if you are arriving from East! Enjoy your drive... (I do!)

Life as a 'roadrunner;
I hate last minute pile-up of meetings - it mess up my life, but it's the chosen path which means I have to bear with it, no matter what. Blessing from love ones did raise you up when you are feeling low!
As usual, I would be on the move early in the morning - well, I think it's not really a big fuss if you were to compare with primary school children whom also would be traveling at the same hour like myself, but for a 9 to 6 people, this is early!
Anyway, it was a wet morning and it's drizzling through out the entire journey - reach Kuantan in record time of 3hrs drive due to the wet weather ( it was usually a 2 hrs drive ) The whole time, the car screen was showing a 23deg celcius - cool!!
It was still drizzling even later in the afternoon, which left me with no option rather than to get through with it. The scenery in Gambang-breathtaking! it help me to loose the tense of getting the presentation completed for tomorrow...

Getting to know the highway to Kuantan
For the past 3 years, for the record, I think I have been traveling back-and-forth KL-Kuantan for a record that has surpassed my hubby whom was once a Kuantan denizen! Of course the hiway is not as good as NKVE catering KL-Ipoh route, but it's still better than 10 years ago where it takes almost 5hrs to reach KL (now, I usually make it around 2hrs - toll to toll) Hey, for a 250km journey, I'm not really speeding my way, but occasionally I have to speed up to avoid monotonous boredom of driving alone.
