Pulau Pangkor - Day 3

The last day of our wonderful time here.. we just wake up early in the morning again..take our breakfast at the inn and went for the beach..

We stayed there swimming, taking couple of photos and gets back to the Inn.. around 11 a.m we already ready to leave this place..

So a couple of photos on our chalet..

 Front entrance..cute isn't it..

Another type of chalets..bricks one..

There you are our journey to Pulau Pangkor.. one of the best holidays we had..

Pulau Pangkor Round The Island - Day 2

We are so ready to conquer the Island after breakfast. So we took the scooter and started our journey. Honestly i am a bit skeptical cause the last time i touched a scooter was over 3 to 4 years ago. And i never ever bring someone else also. It was the first but we made it. At first we headed to town since the tank kinda empty. We were crossing our finger and hope we make it and we made it. After that we were following the sign board to the Dutch Fort located in Kg Teluk Gedong. It's not much really and i'm not really into historic things like that. I rather be at the beach.

Anyway after around 15minutes we left and headed to Teluk Ketapang. It's just along the way back to Teluk Nipah. We plan to jump into the sea and i'm the only one jumping my feet out of the water.

Warning guys : there's a reason why the beach deserted - it is full of small sea urchin with pointy needles. I learn it the hard way. Got my feet pricked with it. It was painful a bit and the good part it my dear was saved by my foolishness.  While he was chasing a crab i am jumping with one feet up.

So we packed up and dress up and ride our scooter to Teluk Nipah..actually we went over Teluk Nipah until Teluk Dalam..and damn.. Teluk Nipah is the best place to stay for me..

Pulau Pangkor - Day 1

Honestly it was a last minute decision since out month long plan to Cherating got to be cancelled because of the flooding. So sad since already booked the hotel and already plan where to eat.

Anyway just imagine our trip in the middle of super peak season and having to try to get another accommodation. It was daunting to say at least. At last we got a nice chalet in Teluk Nipah but instead of 4 days 3 night as earlier plan we have to cut short it to 3 days 2 night only..sob sob..since there's no empty room on Saturday 29.12.2012.. 

So early morning around 8a.m after breakfast on 30th Dec 2012 we drove using the old road Kuala Selangor to Lumut. Around 10 something we arrived and park our car inside a building and rush to get the Ferry ticket. I am so excited cause it's the first time i went to Pangkor even though my mom's hometown really near and we went to Teluk Batik a lot. 

Anyway Ferry Ticket for 2 person = RM20 ( Lumut-Pangkor-Lumut)

We were really lucky cause we got the white Ferry which has it's deck open for passenger and that's where we stayed around 30 minutes ferry ride to Pulau Pangkor. With wind on our face..

It was so syiok! 

When we arrived at the Jetty we straightly found our ride..the pink van taxi which cost us RM15 to Teluk Nipah. Please ignore all those vehicles they offer there for rent cause it's expensive. 

The taxi driver point us to our chalet which by the way is so lovely ;)

Ombak Inn Chalet - Peak rate for standard chalet should be RM150 but i manage to get RM120..so ka-ching, ka-ching for 3 days 2 night RM240.. thanks to Puan Nani giving me the special price ;)

It was rated no 2 in Trip Advisor for really good treatment from the owner and i can tell you that the Chalet itself was really nice. The ambiance and basic amenities such as Ice Box , Air Cond and Hot Water bath included. So worth the price and the Chalet just 2 minutes walk to the beach. For your info all the chalets in Teluk Nipah are across the street from beach. And we were lucky to get Ombak Inn since it's not further inside that we had to walk far for the beach. 

After putting down our stuff we change into swimming suits and headed for lunch and beach. Their eateries really besides the beach only. So first day we eat simple Chicken Rice for both of us plus water and those fried fish balls RM14 something. 

Full already we just walk on the beach and swim until evening.. so relaxing.. i'll continue on our dinner on the next post ya..xoxo

Guess where I'm writing from..Pulau Pangkor!

We're here in Pangkor Island. Celebrating the New Year  here and having a water blast everyday. Wow, it hurts my body going into sea so often but i just loves it. And the weather is just nice. Yesterday it's hot and cloudy and today it's drizzling a bit in the evening. 

We were riding a motorcycle around the island and walking along the beach pretty a lot. I can barely feel my leg..ha ha..

Anyway let's save my journey for until i return from this fun-tastic vacation..xoxo

Tanjung Bidara - A day at the beach

Last Friday was Eid Adha meaning where we got a lots of beef meat for free.. and it means holiday time..

Well as my hometown is in Melaka then there just so many places one's can go and during this time Melaka will be pack with tourist ( sighh..really hate that) so we just went to the sea side instead.. we arrive at noon and stayed, played and fishing until around 6 in the evening..

 Usaha menyelamatkan ikan gelama yang dapat di pancing..he he sadly it died eventually..

It was so much fun and there were less people around us so we were having such a wonderful time..since i left my camera in the car the pictures just have to wait (^;^)

Langkawi Island Day 2 - Mahsuri Tomb and Cable Car

 

Sea Cucumber Factory ( Perusahaan Gamat) 

Makam Mahsuri 

 The actual grave according to our travel guide..the stone as the marker

Cable Car at Gunung Mat Cincang

There's Oriental Village where they sell cheap hats..just Rm9.90 for the pretty hat..there's also Rabbit Farm and Dear Farm where you can feed them yourself..just buy Rm 1 food and they come running at you..i had an episode of Zombie Animals here..duhh

Pantai Pasir Hitam (Black Sand Beach)

 

It's a very enchanting beach.clear water and some black mineral at his sand thus the name of Black Sand Beach..not a  popular place to bath here..just sight seeing but you can always jump if you want to..

Langkawi Island - Day 1

We flew to Langkawi on Friday around 3.30 p.m ( 10.30a.m i chow already from work) and reach there 1 hour later..yeah, really fast huh..Lcct to Langkawi Airport just 1 hour..

First place we went after landing was Under Water World Langkawi..situated at near Cenang Beach.. it was not really happening for me as the Aquaria KLCC and it's cheaper also to enter..around Rm25 i think.. you can see the smallest monkey Mimosa , Penguins, Sharks and fishes..

                                            Seal                                                   Penguins

After that we went for shopping at The Zon just next door..chocolates here were the cheapest amongst all shops that we went for 3 days there..cheaper than Haji Ismail Group..

 Lastly before heading to our hotel we dine at Siam Village Restaurant just next to The Zon.. The food here was the best..freshly cook and hot.. big prawns, seafood Tomyam , Crabs and another 2 plates already finished..steam fish and i forgot the other dish..it was authentic Thailand and even the workers speak Thailand..

First day trip finished..we went to our hotel in Pekan Kuah,City Bayview Hotel..we can't get other hotels since holiday kicking in..but it's really a good hotel..spacious room with flat screen tv, bath tub and shower, view of the beach and they provided the ironing tools.. so far the best hotel i've ever been staying..

relaxing at the swimming pool before went out for shopping

End of Day 1..

Blue Lagoon Port Dickson

From Melaka it's not that far. We only need around 1 1/2 hour to reach there. If you're coming from KL then Blue Lagoon will be at the end of Port Dickson and the road will lead you to Melaka eventually. The Blue Lagoon located a bit off from the main road. There's road sign so don't worry and your Que for the exit is next to the army camp on your right, if you're coming from KL. Anyway i don't think people coming from Melaka need my opinion on how to get there..ha ha..

So why Blue Lagoon ?and not any other beaches along PD..this is why..

My nieces..

See the clear blue water..that's why it's call Blue Lagoon. Here quite far from the commercial beach and only a handful of locals knew about it. but it's quite pack on holiday also..and at Port Dickson you can also go to Ostrich Farm like me there, and ride them. You'll even got a Cert saying you're crazy.. 

Anyway since the school holiday just around the corner i hope this will become an idea for the holiday..

Barbeque at Pantai Puteri

31.10.2011

You can say we had an eventful weekend since we best bud's done a little travel down to Melaka and had a barbeque party at the beach on Saturday night. We had a lots of iodin and protein intake that night. There's squid, prawn, marinated chicken and 120pcs marinated yummy yummy hotdog-Special recipe from Mr Syazwan Fikri and i almost forgot to mention 4 big size fishes. We only manage to swallowed 3 of it ;) . Awesome.

Just having to relax at the beach at night while barbequing was really fun and exciting in the same line cause we had conversations and they were playing 20 questions. Ha ha..yeah, it's a great event.. Pantai Puteri still retain it's beaches unlike Klebang where there has been major changes with the Dataran 1 Malaysia taking place, so the beach kinda no where to be seen from the road. To come here is easy also and if you're from the town you will pass Klebang first before you see the stretch of beaches of Pantai Puteri. 

Then yesterday we back from Melaka at the earliest of 3p.m and think it's kind a early so we hit Wangsa Walk and head out to Superstar karaoke. They are using touch screen for the interface on choosing the songs. We took 2 hours and it cost us Rm51 plus 2 drinks. We take small room which by any account can fit until 6 to 8 person comfortably. So it's a nice room and nice selection of songs. Which by the way are kind a updated coz i got to sing Lithium-Evanescence ;)..
