Borneo Break: Visiting Bandar Seri Begawan

We did not make straight back for Miri after lunch. Mau Wei suggested that we go to Bandar Seri Begawan and why not? She was driving the car and controlling the steering. The weather was beautiful and the road to the capital of Brunei was good and there was not much traffic on the road too. This trip to Bandar Seri Begawan was actually my second and the last time I was here, I had visited a few interesting spots like Kampung Air or the water village where one gets to see houses on stilts standing out of the brownish water of Brunei River, the famous Sultan Omar ali Saifuddin Mosque which features a golden dome and an interior of Italian marble walls and the dissapointing Jerubong Park, a theme park where I heard Michael Jackson had sang once during the Sultan's birthday. This time round, we just window shopped at a shopping mall and had durian ais kacang, a sweet savoury dessert made from durian...
