Kota Tinggi 13-14 Dec 2006
After so many years, finally I made my first trip to Kota Tinggi, despite the numbers of water falls I have visit, further than Kota Tinggi.
We had a good time, the weather was perfect, despite it had rained for the past few days and almost every day.
Accordingly to Rachael, who has been there more than a decade ago, the place has changed. Very nice and fun for kids. Josef had a great time at the pool and slide - not at the falls. Deborah enjoyed herself too, so was my domestic helper.
We drived there and I realised the way to go there via Woodlands checkpoint is to make a U-turn after Malaysia immigration point and turn left into Jalan Wong Ah Fook. From there followed the sign board all the way to Kota Tinggi. However, Kota Tinggi is just a town, not a water fall. The actual destination is another distance. The actual name is "Air Terjun", followed the sign board in brown and all the way till the dead end - that's the main gate. To my surprise, you need to pay. Maybe if you make a detour and enter through the carpark, it's free. It is a national park and should be free access!
We spend almost the rest of the morning and part of the afternoon there.
Instead of going home, our intention is to stay a night in Johore. But unfortuntely, instead of going to Desaru, which I think I lost my way, we ended ourself in JB and spent a night there. It is a simple stay at Crystal Crown. We had a good dinner of yong tao foo, which I had two servings!
In my opionion, I will not choose to stay in Crystal Crown, quite a old 3-star and I should have asked for a smoke free floor. The car park ins very small.
On returning home the next day, we had some shopping. Everyone was tired, especially Josef.
