The Beautiful Sceneries of My Bus Journey from Ipoh to
Butterworth |
|
|
During my school holidays, I embarked on a solo bus journey from Ipoh to
Butterworth to meet my family. This was the first time I had traveled alone and
was slightly anxious, but my worries dissipated as I was treated to breathtaking
views along the way.
As the bus drove through Ipoh, I observed the modern city with its tall and
stunning buildings, each estate sporting a unique identity. The landscape then
transformed into lush oil palm plantations, where I was greeted with an air of
serenity and an endless stretch of greenery. Rows of swaying coconut trees and
neatly planted oil palms laden with red fruit lined the roads.
Next, the bus followed the coast and passed a stretch of sea, where I witnessed
the sun's rays reflecting on the waves, forming a shimmering bed of blue and
green. I was so engrossed in the scenery that I did not realize how hungry I was
until the bus stopped at a little market square. There, I treated myself to a
legendary Danny's burger, renowned for its scrumptious taste. If my mother had
been with me, she would never have allowed me to indulge in such an unhealthy
meal. But, on this journey, I relished my freedom.
While enjoying my burger, I made two new friends, who were also traveling to
Butterworth for the holidays. We struck up a conversation and found that we had
a lot in common. Together, we explored the market square and sampled all the
oily but delicious food cooked on the spot for us.
Finally, the bus arrived at the depot where I boarded a ferry to cross over to
Butterworth. I was pleased to have benefited greatly from the journey, not only
feasting physically but also enjoying the breathtaking scenery. Overall, it was
a memorable and enjoyable trip. |
