By TianChad田七 - September 29, 2010
Harlo guys, this would be my first post for My Selangor Story Travel! All bloggers were ought to gather at Subang Skypark Terminal around 3pm and this is the place we met- KAPITAN Kopitiam. I would like to thanks Wern for fetching me and Nicole to the terminal =)
Firefly is the sponsor for bloggers from Indonesia, Singapore and other states who need flights to reach here. I didn't take the flight but I am sure we all receive warm welcome from the Firefly crews. She has a big smile doesn't she? =)
There are familiar bloggers and new faces appear in the kopitiam. Here is one of the group photo that I manage to get.
Some finger food to welcome us and thanks to Firefly's pilot that give all passengers good treatment along the way.
Raja Sa’adi, the Head of PR & Marketing for Firefly giving an opening speech about what they are doing to serve people flying around the world. This is the third year Firefly serving the publics and the location plus destination of flight is increasing~!You can fly from hub in Subang, connect to Penang, Kuala Terengganu, Kerteh, Kota Bharu, Alor Setar, Langkawi and Johor Bahru within Malaysia. In Thailand, Firefly fly to Koh Samui and in Indonesia, Firefly fly to Medan, Pekanbaru and Batam. From Penang, Firefly connects Malaysians in the northern state to Phuket in Thailand, to Banda Acheh and Medan in Indonesia, and to Subang and Langkawi in the Peninsular.
Firefly has also started its new route to Singapore from Subang, Ipoh, K. Terengganu, Kuantan. That's how all the bloggers from Singapore and Indonesia arrive at Subang Skypark Terminal in time~
Since I am not taking flights to reach there. You will be interested to read their stories from Indonesian bloggers - Alid Abdul, Citra Rahman & Husni Fahrizal.
The stewardess are friendly enough to take photo together with the bloggers too~!
Carlton Holiday Hotel & Suites is the first hotel we are staying in. I am sharing the room with Thristhan for the day. Below is a video for the inside view of the hotel room.The view of Carlton Holiday Hotel & Suites
A very simple room with two single beds. Found a spot of the carpet floor is wet but don't know why. And it has the old place kind of smell. But still it is comfortable enough for us to stay overnight.
After half hour break in the hotel room we all meet at the hall to take PENTAX Camera that is going to loan on us during the whole trip. Some of us got the DSLR, while some of us got the water proof camera/compact cam.
I got the white PENTAX Optio E80 which is fairer than my skin =)
We were then introduced to the Tourism Selangor's Crews - Fazly Razally, Hafeezuddin and 3 more handsome+pretty.
Kak Ning, our Tour Guide along the trip will tell us bunch of stories about the point of interest in Selangor. She is talkative anddefinitely know how to tell jokes =D
We took the bus and heading to i-City Shah Alam. PENTAX Option P80 looks kinda elegant from the outside and I try to get familiar with this camera function.
I spotted a few dining tables in the middle of the i-City and was wondering which VIP is going to sit there. In the end, figured out that we are the VIP that will be sitting there~! How honoured could that be?! O.oHarlo guys, this would be my first post for My Selangor Story Travel! All bloggers were ought to gather at Subang Skypark Terminal around 3...
