I woke up the next morning not knowing what to expect. I've ditched my original plan to make a trip down to Penang. It was a lazy morning and we didn't move out until about 2 in the afternoon. Plans just seem to fall into place. It was bah kut teh with Chin Nam and then seafood with Peter Long. I'm amazed at how my mistimed trip has turned out quite pleasant spontaneously.
We treated Chin Nam to lunch where he headed back to UM for choir practice while we continued with our plan of catching a movie. Berjaya Times Square was not far from where we were and a good half hour saw us reach the place in time for a movie. The same however could not be said about the trip to UM where Chin Nam would drive us down to Klang for seafood. None of us knew that Imbi station would be so different from Hang Tuah Station. The platform at Imbi station was small and I wondered if there were ever times people had to queue at the escalator leading up to the platform. The train itself was inadequate to say the least. It had two carriages and the squeeze was unimaginable. Shoving and pushing were unavoidable. Seriously, this has to go down as a major embarrasment to KL's integrated rail system.
It took us a good one and a half hours to reach UM. Chin Nam never told us how long he has waited for us, but I didn't want to ask either. The drive to Port Klang was long, almost another 2 hours, but enjoyable nonetheless when we tried to inculcate in Chin Nam the 'wrong' values.
It was round two of seafood, after that in JB with Jessie and Meeiyin. This time it was three crabs, kang kong, sotong, cereal prawns, oyster omelette and noodles. These mouth-watering treats on top of Peter's entertaining stories made the hard work at Imbi station all worth it.
