Austin Hill Golf Resort, Tmn Mount Austin, Johor Bahru

We had a 2 days 1 night vacation at Austin Hill Golf Resort (N1°33.691' E103°45.967') during the 'Mother's Day' of 2008.
The room rate is reasonable at MYR110+ (Member), MYR130+ (Non-member). The room was spacious and with 2 king size bed. (Promotion till May 2008)

I took the chance to snap some photos around the Golf Resort.

My daughter and her cousins ran to swimming pool for their greatest enjoyment! The pool was not really crowded that day. But the slide at the corner was full of kids queuing up!

The path to the pool





Many families having their relax family day over here. You can enjoy the Fitness, Spa & Sauna facilities after your swim....it's located beside the reception counter.

Some others photos around the pool site......

Tennis court at the end of the pool

Stairway to heaven?!

The antennas having their party on the roof top !! :)

And the forgotten....

Maybe it's the lucky animal of the resort, you can see it at every corner....


After the main entrance, the restaurant is on the left.


Coconut tree everywhere.....Tropical atmostphere.....

Staircase to the Pub (One bucket of Tiger - MYR40+ for 5 bottles)

On the way back to the room.....


We having our home cook dinner in the room....and I brought my daughter to the 8 lanes Bowling Alley (at the lower ground) after dinner.

I found something unusual over there......I cannot understand why some peoples playing bowling by wearing his own "Slipper"?! Don't they understand that??
And the management which takes care of the area not even bother about it. That guy react arrogance like he is the Hero over there!
That's what I mention before.....this gotta do with our education system here. Sometime is impossible or difficult to change someone mentality.

The happiest kids was playing around untill midnight and totally exhausted!

We leaving in the next morning after packed, and went home after our breakfast.

Mulligan's Pub, Tmn Permas Jaya, Johor Bahru

Mulligan's Pub (N1°29.756' E103°48.972') is the only Irish Pub in Johor Bahru at the moment. It's located next to Coffee Trap Pub & Bistro at Taman Permas Jaya - opposite of Jusco Permas Jaya.


The Irish decoration really attracted me. I love hang around the area mostly in the evening.

Cedar Point Hawker Center, Johor Bahru

N1°28.874' E103°45.759'
This food court is one of the oldest around Johor Bahru area. It's located opposite of Pelangi Plaza & and the back of the Omega School.

The place has many improvement since my last visit about 6-8 years ago. The canopy was built to have better cover during rain. I was suffer last time because without this! :) The ex-company which I'm service 9 years ago was located at the same row with Omega School.

And also equipped with big fans every corner. Environment is cooling.

Today I decided to go back there to have my favorite "Char-Koay-Teow" (fried koay-teow). It's one of the famous at JB.

Guess what? Disappointed. The standard drop very much!
Beside this, there are about 8-10 store over here selling good food easily more that ten years. Curry Fish Head is another delicious food around.

We were having some beers until the sun go down....recall all those memories which is more than 10 years ago.......:)

Location map will update later......
