Cameron Highland 29 and 30 October 2016

Short 2D1N trip to Cameron Highland (CH) with group of recycling volunteers.  Gathered as early as 530am at SD recycling station before starting our journey.  there were several stops along R&R, toilet break before reaching CH.  Weather was cold, mostly cloudy at times light drizzle.  It was a great trip with good steam boat dinner and morning breakfast prepared with this group of great ladies.  Despite the short trip we had a great time.  Looking forward to another trip with this gang!

Pulau Tioman Trip (3 June 2016 – 6 June 2016)

Pulau Tioman Trip (3 June 2016 – 6 June 2016)

Day 1 (3 June 2016)

Had a good start with Kwee Yap and I waking up early to attend xun fa xiang at 5.20am.  Around 8am we hit the road and stopped for breakfast at Restoran Yi Poh at Seremban.  After that stopped by Pedas to see mother.  She had a good time watching tv with her sister.  Later we drove to have lunch at Kluang Rail Station where business was brisk.

We had to wait around 30 min at Mersing before the ferry departed for Pulau Tioman as the current was strong due to rain.   We stopped at Tekek which is the 3^rd stop.   By the time we reached Swiss Tioman Cottage the sky was already dark.   Swiss Tioman’s beach is clean probably as it is near to Berjaya Tioman.    We walked to Chinese Restaurant nearby for simple dinner.  Boys packed some burgers for supper.  There are a few convenient stores nearby.  Basically this place is quite convenient with 2 restaurants and convenient stores within walking distance to choose from.

Day 2 (4 June 2016)

Coral Island Trip

It was quite a worthwhile trip as the guide brought us to numerous snorkeling spots.  We first stopped at Paradise Shelter where they learnt to snorkel.  The sea was clear but there is no coral at sight.  Later we stopped by Coral Island where there are numerous colorful fishes.  Ern Tong was in sea most of the time with Kwee Yap.  The boys were unexpectedly not as active as the girl.  I was in the boat feeding the fishes around with bread.

We had lunch at Kg Salang and as we were all hungry and tired, we just hopped to the first restaurant sighted.   The foods served were mostly fusion and quite nice.  After lunch we went to Marine Park and Renggis Island.   After almost a full day snorkeling, we went back to take a bath and had a stroll to jetty.  2^nd night, we had BBQ.  Fortunately there are vege dishes available for me to feast on.

Day 3 (5 June 2016)

We toured the island to visit the waterfall and Kg Juara.  Kg Juara is apparently the origin of Pulau Tioman.  There are abundance of fishes here and we had light snacks.

We had lunch at a quaint open restaurant “Cabana”.  It was a laid back place with few hammocks around.  At night, we went to catch sunset while having dinner nearby jetty.  What a sight though it was almost dark by the time we reached.

It was a relaxing trip.  The place is clean with lots of fishes to see.  Worth visiting if one plan to have a laid back vacation.
