L.I.F.E

So, here come my second and third day spent on the island...

I woke up at 7.30am and had a walk at the seaside before we took our breakfast at 8am, unfortunately i can't see dawn due to the geography of Salang beach.

Prepared for snorkeling after breakfast, which was scheduled at 10am. We rent 6 sets of masks, fins and life jackets for RM12 and wait for boat in front the reception. The first place of snorkelling was Genting Bay, everyone leave the boat the minute we reached there except mun ping and I, two girls who still figure out which will be the safe way of getting into the sea (jumping are so not us)... actually, i did not go for any snorkelling before, not even at Redang (i got panic when i was at Redang) So, i screamed and grabbed mun ping very hard the minute i got into water (i think she got panic because of me... hehe). The wave was strong and i hit the boat (ya, very good, my elbow still hurt). And then, don't know how, mun ping and i able to stay away from the boat and joined the rest. I grabbed whoever can help me stayed steady and at last, wei keat taught me snorkel and i stopped screaming eventually. Saw colorful corals and fishes in the sea, just like those we used to watch in National Geography. Anyway, lee fu claim that Redang's looked much colorful than Tioman's.

Left Genting Bay after ~40minutes of snorkeling and head to Coral Island beach- a place for swimming instead of snorkeling. So, mun ping and i stayed in the boat this time and had our lunch at the same time. Looh tchuin learned how to make an Ali Baba hair while dry his body for reapply sunblock. And we moved to our 3rd snorkeling place around 2pm. Malang Rock is deeper (40ft? i forgot) and the water is cold too. Mun ping went back to the boat after not long of snorkeling and i managed to snorkel all by myself this time *proud*. hehe (and i think i am addicted to snorkeling now. lol)

We went back to chalet after snorkeling. Took shower and had some chat and card games (again) before our dinner served. It was a BBQ dinner- fishes, sotong, chicken wing and fried rice (their fried rice is delicious). The funny thing was most of us don't eat fish, so it ended up that only wei keat and lee fu eating the fish (looh tchuin ate some, the rest of us didn't even touch it).

Went for some drink later on, 6 of us squeezed around a small round table. Wei pien was the very first one who get drunk. Evidence: he asked where's Alan when we back to our rooms (NB alan was not with us to Tioman) Looh tchuin drunk too. Lee fu and mun ping drank a lot of water- reduce the chances of having red and itchy skin the next day. Wei keat and i were planning for second round.

Woke up at 7.30am the next day and packed our belongings after breakfast. Took a photo of 6 of us in the guys' room (well, i don't understand why should we took the photo indoor instead of outdoor), returned kettles and keys, collect our packed lunch and we walked to the jetty. Took some photos at the jetty and the guys were busy testing their cameras. Board ferry around 10.30am (late, again) and it was another 2 hours boring journey back to Mersing, everyone slept in the ferry.

While waiting for bus at 1.30pm, we'd lunch at Mersing's jetty. Wei keat interviewed everyone about the trip and we challenged lee fu using the ladies' room (because mun ping went to the gents earlier. haha) He went eventually and had a lot of comments on the ladies.

Took our bus at Mersing bus station which located not far from Mersing jetty. The driver drove really slow (excuse me, it's highway!) and it took us around 6 hours back to KL.



There's no cell phone connection at Salang village, i was about to turn off my phone. And guess what, i forgot to buy souvenir, my sisters just can't stop mumble but WHO CARES!
