Around 8 something we just arrive the penthouse (Villa Dahlia) that we rent, around rm600 i guess. the penthouse is very suitable for family, it have kitchen, living room, dining room, 4 or 5 rooms, 3 toilet. we stay at 6th floor. My mom have cook the dinner at the kithchen because we arrived there already late, so just cook the simple food (my mom have prepare food to bring up here for our meal, scare we will hungry.. hehe..nice food, mom.. thanks) After dinner, we just stay in the penthouse and enjoy the cool weather in cameron...chit chat and watch the badminton match..live..hehe..

Trips in year 2008… Review 1- Pangkor Island

Yeah.. This year I have went for quite many places, although just local destination (Malacca, Pangkor Island, Cameron Highland, Langkawi Island, Tioman Island, Penang Island, Ipoh, Pusat Sains Negara) But im satisfied…

Pangkor Island, I have go there for two times in this year. Once is with my housemates + coursemates, and another times is with my family. First time, I think is 26th April (Sunday) if I’m not mistaken, after our final exam; we 10 people have planned to travel in Pangkor Island before final exam start. On that day, early in the morning, around 6am, we have wake up so early to go pudu. From serdang KTM station take KTM, then transfer LRT to plaza rakyat, get our 9am bus in puduraya to lumut. We are rushing for times, we scared we will late to get the bus, luckily we arrived pudu before the bus depart.

Around 12 something we arrive lumut, and we bought the ferry ticket with rm10, 2 way to Pangkor Island. We rent an apartment in Coral Bay Resort with rm220 per night with 3 room 2 bathrooms; it is very worth for us. Then we have our lunch in the apartment owner’s stall which located just besides the apartment. After that, we rent 5 motor, 1 motor is rm20, to go around the island. It is a very good experience for all of us. We discover the island ourselves, drive through dangerous road, take photo in anywhere, looking for handsome guys (haha.. just look only), drinking coconut after drive so long under hot weather, eat dinner in YeLin restaurant (food quite delicious and worth + a cute granny)……that’s our 1^st day in Pulau Pangkor.

2^nd day in Pangkor. Snorkeling. Rm19 per each person not include google (RM5). After snorkeling, play banana boat (RM15 per person), rest in apartment, eat BBQ dinner (RM15 per person) that provide by the owner, it just a very simple BBQ dinner. After dinner, we walk to the seaside to see the blue sand and beautiful sky. But unfortunately, that night too much cloud cannot see the star…

Last day in Pangkor, sleep till enough, check out at 12pm and go back serdang lu…

Second times to Pangkor Island is with my family when Deepavali for only 2D1N. We drive car there and park our car in lumut, then took ferry to pangkor Island. This times my family and I stay in Sea View Resort, also located in Coral Bay beach. The resort have swimming pool and just beside the seaside, nice view. The attraction in this resort is the hornbill will come to the resort’s restaurant in every morning and evening. The owner of the resort will feed the hornbill with papaya. Many foreign tourist come to stay in this resort because of the hornbill.

As usual we go around the island, but this time we go by teksi (van), RM80 per van. Pangkor Island have just little attractions that can visit, only one day you can finish visit all attractions. Oh ya… I have play banana boat for my 1^st times, erm… just remember throw by the boat and drink a lot water.. haha.. after banana boat, I and family play in swimming pool.. jump into water in different way… oh…that is really a good try and I may do it again. hehe.. That night, we just relax in the seasides and enjoy the wind. The next day morning, we go back…

Thats the experience in pangkor Island...... to be continued......
