Life's a beach!!
My trip to P.Tioman is definitely a wonderful one...best holiday i have ever been.. I shall conclude that my life can never be complete without beaches...(pun intended).
I guess its the company i have that makes it 90% so wonderful..
Dudes and dudets...thanks for sponsoring part of the trip for my burfday...will nv forget it.
...the other 10% is of course the venue..location..."my beach!!"
We stayed over at paya beach. juz in case u do not noe, tioman island is fucking big...although it is called an island. i think it at least have 1/2 the size of Singapore.
we stayed at paya beach resort...used to be called tioman paya resort.
we started out like bai zhan ji..as white and tender as boiled chicken..
the room we have mahjong sessions, fight nites, fart, sing, fart, joke, fart...did i say fart? no? farting...and slp
tioman is actually not as cheap as we naive s'poreans think it is...our first meal at the resort cost as much as eating mac back in s'pore...and mac taste so much better..
serene not being happy that she is charged so much,...
so she decided to get value back for money... "more chilli sauce pls", she said!
we didn't do much on the first day. by the time we arrived at tioman, it was already 2pm. we are all bus-lagged and boat-lagged. 5 hours of coach and 2 hours of boat..dun pray pray hor.
this is how "my beach" looks like when it is low tide...full of ROCKS!!! SHARP ones.
but it was so alive that many creatures live among these rocks.. children juz simply loves these creatures.
this are the creatures they caught.. consist of small crab, sea cucumber, and sea snail (as told to me by a young girl when i thought it was a baby hermit crab. yah..everything is in that "pool" they made.
the second day is a pretty normal day as well...most interesting is that we played UNO H2O in the swimming pool...seen it before? now see this...
semi transparent plastic Uno deck that's played in water.
funny thing is that among the 7 of us, the last 3 who finishes will have to pick the cards which have sunk into the bottom of the pool and none of us can barely open our eyes underwater.
i had a mild tanning session as well by the beach..
supin happy with her tan and breakfast
on the third day, we went snorkelling....at 2 sites... it was my first time snorkelling and the experience was indescribable... (will post my snorkelling pics once i have them)
but the journey to the sites is another tedious boat ride...so bo liao that i took all this pics...and more...
setting off early morning in a bum boat
nice angled shot...
nice shot of boat, sea, island, sky, and monkeys
the never ending horizon and the tip of the bum boat
you might not know wat this is..but its a fucking school of fish looking like floating algae..
i think i look like bomberman...and serene, like lobster...thats how "overcooked" she is.
i will post more pics once i have all of them...i think total pics taken from 5 cameras is about 1000. 30 of them is from an underwater camera.
a storm was brewing the nite before we left..and i managed to capture this shot...LIGHTNING that's red orangey in colour...eerie..and yet spectacular
while waiting at the jetty for our ferry back to main land, mount tioman was angry that we are leaving that he erupted...
actually its juz smoke/clouds but it makes for a nice scenery pic...
after this tioman trip, i have concluded yet another 2 theories
that sunrise is the most beautiful sight you can ever see from the causeway..
and that there are more motorcycles in JB than the whole population in malaysia..dun believe?
just see this...
and this..and you will believe!!
