Looking forward the next TT @ IPOH

I am looking forward the Ipoh TT (Photo Shooting Session) at this coming Saturday. It has been a long break for me since I joined the previous TT with my photo buddies.

Now, I am doing my own count down … another 3 more days!!! Yeah~~ IPOH here I come!!!

Ipoh is not strange place to me although I don’t know many road directions, but is a place that has many childhood memories. I visited Ipoh almost every year end school holidays during my primary school time. My eldest aunty was staying in Ipoh and without failed, I would visit her and stayed at least 3 – 4 weeks in Ipoh.

One of my best childhood memories…

Ipoh – capital city of Perak State, it is located approximately 200 km north from Kuala Lumpur. It built on the land of Sungai Kinta that divided the town into two parts by the river, i.e., the Old and New Town.

Many photographers would love visit Ipoh because of their unique heritage building architectures. Many old buildings were built before the World War II. Until now, they are many buildings remained there. The shophouse architectures are full of richness of the culture of Chinese, Indian, British Colonial style or even Peranakan design which are perfectly for street shooting.

Another reason most people would love visit Ipoh is the yummy hawkers food. Almost every weekend, this place is crowded with many food hunters from Kuala Lumpur and Penang because of Ipoh strategic location, right in between of these two cities.

Since I’m so K-poh to be the host sending event invitation to Pen Lovers group on this Ipoh TT, I better do some homework otherwise, “kenal” rotten eggs from friends “Kau Kau” if I didn’t plan properly … luckily I have some Pen Lover’s Kaki who are from “Ipoh Mari”, with their helps and advises, and also help from Mr Google, I managed to form some ideas what to do in Ipoh.

Har!! Finally, give birth-lah my TT itinerary, I hope everyone would be happy … heheh

6.30 am - All gather at Tesco Mutiara Kota Damansara (next to Curve)

6.45 am - To Leave Kuala Lumpur to Ipoh latest by 7am, and those who are late, soli-loh, please drive there directly. (Actually I afraid I am the late one … LOLz)

9.15 am – Base on the law abiding driver (like Yeow), I think we will “slowly” reach Ipoh by around 9.15am, then all of us will meet at Kedai Kopi Kong Heng.
