MV Doulos Trip..

Last Sunday I have made a trip to the Star Cruise Terminal in Westport to pay a visit to the MV Doulos ship and I'm telling you I'm late.. I'm suppose to be there at 7.30pm.. Why? Because I got the tickets from my church.. Hehe.. Jealous?


Presenting you the MV Doulos.... Oopss.. Too black.. Cannot see clearly...

Do you know what this ship is all about? This ship actually sails around the world to do missionary work and they sell book & CDs on board.. So they docks at the port and we can just go there and buy lots and lots of books and lots and lots of CDs... And I'm telling you, its cheap... But of course they range from as low as 2 - 3 ringgit to hundres of ringgits (this is because your basket is full of stuff).. Actually i think the maximum is 50 - 60 ringgit i guess... I didn't really notice what's the most expensive stuff on board... So anyway, I can tell you that the people who are visiting this ship is hell of lot.. The main reason why so many people is that because to go to the ship is FREE!!! Malaysians mah... Or actually Malaysians love to read? Hm... I wonder..


At the book store deck... Air-conditioned but bit hot also ler...

Actually I'm suppose to attend this little function that the ship have prepare for the people like us who go to the ship via church.. It's like a presentation and tell you what the ship is all about and etc.. I did actually went for this function but later my wife and me left because we want to go to the deck to see what books they got.. My wife is actually quite a reader though.. Me? Hehe.. U joking right? Give me a book and I guarantee you I will fall asleep in 5 minutes... I did bought something.. Definitely not books but CDs.. Yes.. I bought a worship CD and also a title called Romance in Rio... Its instrumental but hey.. U can't find those CDs that the ship got in Tower Records, k... Most of the CDs they got, you can't find it.. I can guarantee you that...


Me at the deck... As a proof that I went lah...

If you want to work on this ship, no problem... Y? Wanna travel around the world is it? But hey... U got to work also ler.. U have to work 8 hours a day on the ship.. What kind of work? Hm.. Let me see.. I dunno wor.. U can go to this website www.mvdoulos.org to find out more about it... On board they have people coming from different countries around the world.. Its a voluntary work actually and they cook 1,000 meals a day.. Hm... Sound interesting?


Side view of the ship... Ignore the passerby...


A very nice view of the ship.. I like this shot though...

Anyway, to be honest, I have a good experience during my visit to this ship.. For those of you haven't visit it yet, I can give it a 5 star rating and you should make a trip there.. They will be here till August 1st... But harlo.. this is not a Star Cruise ok... Dun later you all come back and kena me...

Take care....
