Day 2 - Butterworth - Bangkok - 27 Jan 06
Arrived Butterworth at 5:45am. Decided to rent a room at a local budget hotel before boarding a train to Bangkok at 2:45pm. Had breakfast oppsite the Butterworth Railway Station. Called a cab to take us to the nearest budget hotel. the cabbie promised to pick us up at noon to the railway station.
Found a room for day use at RM60. Decent with
TV and air conditioning plus water heater. Slept until noon, packed and headed to a nearby nasi kandar restaurant for lunch.
The cabbie didn't turn up and when called he was stuck in a traffic jam near the airport. We decided to take a public bus to the railway station for RM0.60 per person.
Arrived at the station about 1:30pm and the train to Bangkok was delayed. The rail journey started at 3:30pm on board an economy berth. Quite reasonably priced, decent, considerably clean although the interior was quite old-fashioned.
Stopped at the Padang Besar station for immigration check and to have our passports stamped. Entering Thailand is visa-free for Malaysians as both are members of Asean.
At night about 9pm, the railway staff will convert the seating cabin to a berth. There was also a buffet train on board serving dinner, breakfast and lunch. Food could be ordered and sent to the coach.
Day 1 - KL - Butterworth - 26 Jan 06
Took the night train to Butterworth on an economy berth. There are two types of berth onboard KTM; the 1st class and the economy class. The 1st class berth was fully booked since this was a long holiday (Chinese New Year and Federal Territory Day) so we had to settle for the economy class but had a satisfied trip; there was lots of privacy and the berth was clean.

Anuar Zain Concert @ SInggahsana PJ
Hmmmmm pergi konsert charity Anuar Zain kat Singgahsana Hotel in PJ ngan Autumn Junkie and my other half - a threesome affair that night heheheh.. excited gila... eventho the organisation of the concert were yucky tapi we enjoyed ourselves... Anuar Zain was great. Got to know about the concert at KUB.com cafe when we were there for lunch and decided to go.
Tunggu pun punya la lama... semata2 sebab tak makan dinner tapi nak tengok dia nyanyi je... overall excellent to Anuar Zain but sorry to say, the organizer sucks... nasib baik tak makan!
Starlight Cinema - Mr & Mrs Smith
Heheheh semalam was an adventurous night... dah lama tak main ujan hahaha dengan pakai baju office terus ke Starlight Cinema... well, have planned this experience for the last three years tapi 2 tahun lepas tak jadi so, this year mesti jugak pergi! So there we were, tengok movie under the rain... at first cuaca cerah but come 7:30 dah start hujan and kilat sabung menyabung. Not wanting to miss entertainment under the stars (rain) we sat, well I sat kat padang tu for 4 hours straight hahaha sampai kebas la kaki nak jalan balik. The experience was good, unforgettable but i dragged the unexpected exercise walking from the car park to the 'oh sungguh jauhnya' starlight cinema... thank you to the organizer i think i've lost 2 kilos walking and entertaining myself in the cold rain. hahahah
Movie wise, splendid action packed movie. Nothing much to say except - go watch it lah!
