Hari peGawai

Hari Gawai used to be just 2 words on the calendar, and the kajian tempatan book.

But in Sarawak, the state is giving 2 weeks school holidays leh.

Mind you chinese new year only has 1 week school holiday.

Anyway, sempena we are given half day off during public holiday, I joined a group of other tak-tau-malu-gang, go around driving for hours to visit ppl who are celebrating gawai.

equipped with 3 cars but only 7 ppl (due to miscommunication regarding the distance, i tot very near!!!) we polluted the world even more that day.

First, we went to Bau.

This is Wilmore's place in Bau. That's where I try this tebu-tuak. Very nice.

After makan till puas, we moved on.

Damn far la the second destination, somewhere called annah rais.

I tot it was a scam, coz i searched googlemap for Anak Rais, no address found.

It reminds me of Scottish Highlands, the road there.

It was so packed and jammed in Annah Rais, a rumah panjang, which to my disappointment, not very panjang! Hahaha.

But nevertheless, it is still very longy, homely, and traditionally designed, with Astro, and full 2G signal.

Which brings a very important question mark to my life. WHY MY HOUSE IN KUCHING GOT NO PHONE SIGNAL!!!

Very nice groupie, with my baldy head, and the girl who conned me into balding my head, and my fellow baldies.

Dont have to go to Sarawak Cultural Village for this kind of bridge. Its everywhere!

An equally poyo friend of mine.

Tebu crasher!

I posted this picture to highlight the many many pictures of generations of this bidayuh family.

Then we moved on to Lydia's house!

Didnt take a groupie in this house, because.........

1. So tired of taking pic.

2. This is a normal house la.

Nevertheless, it has this -

Whole kampung Petag share the same postbox!

Not very tradisional house as u can see.

I ate the 3rd "Lunch", damn full!

We then moved on, to Drent's House.

Damn far.

Near Serian liau!

There's a lot of scenery there, but too bad we were driving in the dark, cant take much picture.

Next time la!

The end of our Gawai Trip.
