Senai Airport @ 7am

the flight is scheduled to take off at 710am on 11th may to kota bharu... and it's already almost 5am, and me and john are still waiting for the rest!! apparently the taxi driver screwed up... end up we need to come up with extra cash for cabs in malaysia... our carrot heads got chopped....

kota bharu wasn't too bad... though i expected sth more laid back... it was juz like any other town in malaysia, probably even more touristy than the smaller towns like Kluang which i incidentally like beri much....

next we went to the perhentian islands... the more "kecil" one in fact... smaller that is... coz it appears to be less touristy and cheaper... hehz.. "perhentian" comes from the malay word "berhenti", which means to stop... so the 2 islands (besar and kecil) were in fact quite a popular stop-overs for travellers. the corals there wasn't that very excellent... as compared to the ones i've seen at phuket yrs back... probably they looked juz as nice in perhentian islands then though... but one thing i definitely like is the relaxing atmosphere by the beach... very laid-back.. nice chill-out place... very nuuuuuuahhh........

too bad we missed out the turtles season.... when i say missed, i realli do mean missed.... missed it totally.... apparently these yrs no more turtles come up on shore to lay their eggs at Rau Abang.. which used to see many leatherback turtles making their way up to the eastern shore of p.malaysia... now according to the book, there's barely 2-3 sightings per season.... anyway we din go there....

we went to cherating instead! it's a nice chill-out place as well... i looovved the beach... it's nice and..shallow.... (haha.... i cant swim for nuts!!) we walked to abt 200-300 m from the shore into the water, and the water level is bare at my chest! the way i like it..... wahaha....
