Kuantan trip highlights (2)

  1. It’s refreshing to go ‘sungai air sejuk’ after ‘kolam air panas’. Don’t know how many stones have we thrown into the river while practicing ‘skipping stone’
  2. Dinner was sumptuous. Addy’s relatives good at BBQing ….from marinating to BBQing. Everything was so tasty.
  3. A walk through the village & the ‘jambatan gantung’ at night was invigorating. Needless to say, our flashlight expert, Nick has got the necessary prepared.
  4. All drink till ‘tumbang’. Some more got people say want to go up hill 2 or 3am.
  5. Don’t know whose alarm clock not yet 4am already ringing, some more go on the lights.
  6. All go brush teeth, NO WATER or so we thought. Everyone line up to brush teeth, take mug to collect water … only to find out that DIDN’T ON WATER PUMP. Lucky Nick found out, else some of us may decide no need brush teeth =P
  7. Climb ‘Bukit Lembing’ to catch sunrise. Early morning air very fresh. Thought we were early but saw few tourist bus liao. Lucky going up got steps and path. "Sikit sikit lama lama sampai atas bukit". Breath taking sceneries with sunrise on 1 side and fog on the other.
  8. After breakfast, we’re lead to Hakka association & museum. The last time me remember visiting museum was during school. But it was eye opening. The ‘crystal stone’ uncle house was special. Almost every corner of the house is decorated with stones all shapes & sizes. Aunty told us that some of the stones are still growing.
  9. Kuantan megamall .. no different from any shopping complexes. Me forgot whether we went to Starbuck or Coffee bean. Also forgot what I drank … just know very big glass. We went to either Guardian or Watson. Pang came all the way to kuantan to buy hair styling gel while Angie & Kevin bought sun block.
  10. Thinking of checking in early at the hotel, however waited till people finish playing a few rounds of pool / snooker, the complimentary drinks also finish liao. Lucky, at last Ah Pang & Addy got it settled.
