Raya 2009 Log: Raya -1 day

Our family packed our bags and headed to Felda Sg. Kelamah, Gemas, Negeri Sembilan (my mom's hometown) to celebrate our Hari Raya there. The journey started at 3.00 p.m. on convoy of two cars. My dad was driving Kancil and I drove Waja. The journey is pretty much boring since we drove according to the speed limit for fearing the Ops Sikap. But it was not for long. It was shocking to see that the automatic Kancil can cruise up to 130 km/h without the assistance of slipstream. Instead, the Waja was drafting the Kancil at that speed on the highway. I think servicing the rusty radiator really contributed to the engine's performance and reliability (the 660cc power plant was prone to sudden overheat before). The traffic on the highway was quite congested but flowed smoothly. There are some hiccups on certain 'favourite' spots like the Seremban - Senawang stretch of the NSE. We arrived safely at about 6.00 p.m.
