Yesterday we took a trip to the Firefly Park at Kampung Kuantan in Kuala Selangor with some of my husband's colleagues and their families. We thought that it would be a good idea to let the kids see the fireflies before they become extinct.
We went in a convoy of 6 cars, lost 2 cars somewhere on the highway and missed a turning...making it a 2 hour journey. It should actually just take about 1 ½ hours from Kuala Lumpur - ½ an hour on the highway and 1 hour on a dual lane federal coastal road.
But it was worth it as the sight of the fireflies (kelip-kelip in Malay) lighting up the trees along the riverbank is just beyond description...you just have to see it for yourself.
After that we found a little Chinese village with a few seafood restaurants and went to the one with the most people (means that the food must be good!). The seafood was really fresh...we ordered steamed fish, lala, oyster omelette and some honey chicken (for Mr CoolTeen who isn't too fond of seafood) and some fruit juices...only came up to around RM70 for the 4 of us.
Used the GPS navigation on hubby's mobile phone to get us home as we were not familiar with the roads, having left a little earlier than the others.
