Awaiting the Arrival of Year 2009

Happy New Year!! Hope everyone have a great time celebrating the arrival of Year 2009, cause I did!

We (me, hubby and gang) countdown to 2009 at Morib beach. A destination that is without high rise building, club, disco and countdown concert or stageshow. Yes, a peaceful place to celebrate the arrival of 2009. I guess we are getting old and those 'noisy' places are just not for us.

31 Dec 2008
We meet-up at 2pm and suppose to go straight to the nearby JJ to get food for the BBQ session. But as usual one waited for another and we only got to JJ at about 4pm. Went straight in to the supermarket to get the marinated chicken. But we were shocked to find NO chicken wing.

On further enquiry, a nice lady went and check and came back with a big packet of chicken wings. And I can't tell you how relief we were, although it is not marinated. So, next speed off to get the Heinz BBQ sauce and the rest of the foods - fish ball, sausage, bread, tuna, junk food, drinks, sauces etc.

Then I did something EXTREMELY outrageous... I wash the chicken wings in the ladies toilet! Yes, I'm not kidding. The supermarket refuse to wash it for me so I have no choice but to wash it in the toilet. Just pour in the water into the plastic bag with chicken wing and rinse it a few times. When we get to the car we just pour the BBQ sauce into the bag of chicken wings, let it marinade till the BBQ time.

We only left Cheras at about 530pm.... and we reach our hotel at about 630pm. We stayed at Impian Morib a new establishment just some 5 minutes ride from the Morib beach. Check-in and to our surprise the room, which is furnish with one double and one single bed, is comfortable and spacious. (I'm such a lousy blogger that I forget to take any pictures of the room) The cost RM180 per room, ok ok.



Our room is just beside the pool which is big for such a small resort. Everyone have a dip in the pool before we leave for the beach. The resort doesn't have a beach and do not provide BBQ spot. So, off we go to the public Morib beach at about 7pm.



Reach the beach found our BBQ spot and start the fire! As some of us are getting hungry, the guys start the fire and the ladies (only 2 of us) make sandwiches. We did not bring any BBQ pit and have to look for stones to build our very own BBQ pit. The guys manage to get it done in no time, of course not without any complaint as some are hungry after the swim.

We have some sandwiches while waiting for the chicken wing to cook and all are so serious in BBQing. Spend some time eating, drinking and chit chatting and then wishing each other a happy new year 2009.

It is just a simple get-together. Wish I could bring along my Angel :(
