Whenever I am back in Ipoh, one of the things that I always wanted to do was to drive around for sight-seeing and taking pictures. On the second day of CNY, the roads were less congested and almost empty. That makes it a good time to drive around. Well, probably I only came back almost once a year or once in two years which makes me even more wanted to go down town.
