Back from a sunny holiday to classes, lectures, and piles of work in the office.
And a shitty internet connection. Nice fuck.
Yes, yes, as you can see I went to the 'almost' heavenly Tioman island.
I went with two mates. On the bus, somewhere in deep Pahang, 2:30 am.
Another mate, sleeping like a baby.
Finally after six hours of torturous ride, we finally made it to Mersing. (I only got two hours of short, often interrupted sleep).
Then we got on the ferry at about 7:30 am.
And took some more photos.
And a lovely view.
And a lovely view.
And finally, the island.
Got off the ferry. Head still wobbly from not having enough and proper sleep. Cheese.
As you can see, the view is just simply breathtakingly majestic.
More view.
Postcard perfect view.
Delirious.
A view from our chalet's window.
We did quite a few activities there, like fishing and swimming. We planned to do snorkeling but it's just simply too expensive. Let alone snorkeling. There was no motorboats around. Not enough strong wave for surfing. A lot of strong wind though but nobody did wind surfing. Of course there are no photos of us taking a swim because we took a swim nude beach style like.
Just kidding.
Waiting for our lunch at an extremely windy street side cafe.
Nice sunset.
Next day, fishing at the jetty.
You can see the fish biting the bait.
A Chinese couple joined us as well. Threw bits of bread to attract the fishes.
Caught a colorful fish.
Then at night a fishing boat docked at the jetty, unloading their catch of the day.
And took this picture of this (something) thing.
Friday morning, light drizzle. 8 am, waiting for breakfast.
Our breakfast. With bread. (Oh sorry, I forgot to rotate the picture).
While waiting for our ferry to take us back to mainland, another round of fishing at the jetty.
We can only dream of catching a black marlin.
I want to come back to Tioman.
On the way back, a French family sat next to us. Their daughter, a cute little girl which I have forgotten her name sang a few songs to me which I'm not familiar with. I thought it must have been some French kindergarten song or something. Since I was sleepy at that time, and I can't speak French, I just smiled at her while she sang happily at me.
