Ok, since Im in da mood to write tonight (despite my lack of free time + high workload), I will continue on my experience to Redang. Starting from where I stopped on my last post, all of us met at Hentian Putra around 10pm where the bus scheduled to depart at 10.30pm but due to certain circumtances, it was delay until 11.30pm.
Kak Yatie inside Hentian Duta, you can see the board at the back listed Transnasional to Kuala Terengganu at 10.30pm, bus no : WTC3771
And finally the bus arrived!
Posed with all the trip's member before naik bas (off course who's not in this photo was the one who took the photo, xcept Piyot)
One more, much clear one but only me and Miss yatie
Instead of single deck bus, we got the double decker one and all our seats were messed up. Mas & I sat at lower deck where I found quite relief since I was still not recover from my headache and having an experience sitting on the higher deck before, I knew how it like (and my prediction was right, as all members who sat above mengadu pening2 and terbuai2 bukan perasaan tp badan). Lina and Miss Yatie were separated x dpt dduk sama. First quater of the journey was a disaster. My head spinned to the max, nausea, isi2 perut dah bergelodak and felt like to vomit anytime expecially time menempuh Karak yg berpusing2 tu. The feeling slowly dissapeared afterward and I managed to make myself sleep. We stopped once at Chukai/Kemaman around 2.30am (x percaya?? Bas ni mmg sgt laju)where I quickly ran to buy panadol, had a fresh air outside the bus and lepak2 at the restaurant for hot drinks.
We continued our journey afterward and reached Kuala Terengganu bus station at 5am.
Sampai sana, our tour agent (Ping Anchorage) already waited and he brought us to the office first (not so far from the bus station) for us to stay buat2 ape yg patut sementara menunggu ke 7.30am utk bertolak ke Jeti Merang.
For those who could pray, we went for Subuh prayer first at the mosque nearby. (Masjid Abidin Kuala Terengganu)
OMG, my pinky crocs met her family at the mosque!!
Back to the Anchorage office, we gathered at the traveller cafe located at the roof of the building. Some spent the free time to continue sleeping;
Some who already awake played congkak to keep the momentum;
Some might just took photos;
While some might prefer to be just in the photo...hehehhe :P
But on top of that, there were two people who on RIVAL, trying hard to be outstanding from another, ended up wearing the same colour of T-shirt!!! Since that day they had become DIGI team and become friend forever!
Back to our trip, we had our breakfast odw to Merang and it was my first experience breakfast nasi dagang.
My nasi dagang with pulut ikan... Sgt sedap (or mmg tgh lapar time tu)
We continued our journey and arrived at jetty around 8.30am where we needed to wait (again??) for the boats. Quite a lots jgkla visitor arinie. As per Lina's we were consider as an early birds for this season as normally Redang will close end to early of the year because of the monsoon. So price was quite cheap.
As ussual while waiting, we had a photoshoots at the jetty area.
Explorace action
Nice view taken by Miss Yatie
As schedule the boats arrived at 9pm, however due to the low tide, the boats could not parked (hahahah skali mcm keta lak aku guna perkataan park nie), hmmm landed (that's much suitable word) at the jetty. Instead its waited for us a bit far from the beach, at the deeper site of the sea. You can see how deep by measuring the level of that man inside the water. (The marked one). Almost paras pinggang tu!!
We had to prepare to be wet and went through the sea water to the boats.
"Come2, dont scared" Akbar motivated us. Haha!
Sekali bila tgk keadaan time tu mmg meriah. Mcam pendatang asing beramai2 naik tongkang dgn beg besar suma.
All the boats here were normally runs bt the resort itselves, so once we heard they called Kalong..Kalong which was our resort, we headed to the boat and started the water trip to Redang Kalong.
45mins in the boat, mcm naik kuda finally we reached to our resort. Only 2 words emerged in my mind, subhanallah for the magnificent panorama and alhamdullilah for the chance to experience it.
We gathered at the open dining hall, had a short briefing from Mr Tim (org kuat Redang)
Registration & signing the T&C
Then saat yg ditunggu checked in to our super comfort room. Our room was located on the 2nd floor, the ground floor was a room to store equipment for snorkeling and diving.
Some photos taken in our room using tripod. Katil sorang satu tu!!
There were 3 rooms on that floor, we were next to the single guys room while Syazwan & Dee's room on the other building.
*Pose gedix infront of the guys room. Room service..room service. Hahahah :P
Good things about our room were, ianya mmg betul2 facing the sea,
and also next to the dining hall so it was like centre of everything. Heheheh.
(Behind us was the dining hall)
Keseluruhannya mmg sgt puas hati. Chaiyok Lina!!
I will update our first snorkeling XTVT on the next post. Stay tuned!
