The night was cold, the air con was spouting cold air in a mono tone above my head. The engine of the bus buzz through out the night as i embark on my trip to terrangue to catch the ferry to go to redang. I had mixed emotions as i watched the bus driver recklessly drive in the midst of the darkness of malaysian road. Why won't he keep his head lights brighter. I turn to kenneth,my bunk mate,tribe mate , president of choir club," eh kenneth, see the uncle perform stunt" as the driver over took 3 tankers on a single lane road.
Sleeping then wasn't something we intended to do as the members from king kong tribe chatted away at our little corner . The occassional pit stops brought about excitement in the bus , as this meant toilet breaks, snacks, and the must have chewing gums.
I was browsing through the mart at a stop some where and noticed that price of things had risen quite significantly. I guess the people living there must be cursing us "tourist"for the price rise.
We finally reach terrangue jetty after 9 hours of bus ride. It was not that uncomfortable like i expected and i managed to get a few winks of sleep.Break fast was light with the energy bars they handed to us and a cup of tea. After a group picture and some chilling sessions with the tribe we were set off to take the boat to redang.
I almost had sea sick on board the cruise, Zzz, the effects of the pills wearing off. Any wat, I really got turned on as i saw how blue the blue sea was and the waves that slapped against little foundations around our destination.
Upon reaching the island, we were greeted by crystal clear waters and white sands of the magnificent beach. The waves and batik looking buildings promised me a holiday which would be much enjoyed.
After much registerations and paper work we finally chked in to our allocated room. I shared room with Adrian (aka king kong ) , Alex and kenneth.
Woots. After dropping the barang barang we proceeded to the restaurant for the buffet lunch waiting for us.After which was the programmes that the organising committee had planned for us.
