another 24 hours trip

after my brief "almost 24 hours" trip to Bangkok last year for the P Conference, i never thought i will go through another real SHORT trip again! boy was i wrong! just came back from across the causeway in 1 day... yes, many of you will be like, what's wrong with going to JB for 1 day? read my itinerary and you will understand...
