I Was Here : Pangkor :)

After 'PMR' ended, I was looking forward to Pangkor. A place I've never been before and a place I'll be spending 2 nights in. My school organized this trip and I was possible the most excited one. The bus took of early morning and we visited few landmarks along the journey. One of the many stops included a 'Turtle Sanctuary'.


Aren't these babies adorable?

Then, off we were to Pangkor. We reached and as soon as we arrived at our 'hotel', we headed to the beach. The scenery was amazing! 
The beach ;)

We didn't waste time. Right away, we took pictures and jumped into the water. Some even went 'banana boating' but I was really too afraid due to my history with it. 

So, day 1 was just filled with fun activities and food! Literally ate my heart out for dinner. By midnight, lights were off.

Day 2, began with heavy rain and 'Nasi Lemak'. It was a free and easy day. Fun only began in the evening, as we were about to go island hopping! I was the only 'Indian boy' in the group of 40, as the remaining 9 boys headed to the mosque nearby. It was rather awkward.

Amazing View.

We stopped by this wonderful island. We got into the water and suddenly, 2 students started screaming in pain. Their feet had been 'bitten' by god knows what. Apparently it was the corals, but we were quickly shocked as a 'dead' huge jelly fish appeared floating on the shallow water. It was 'half'eaten. No one then wanted to go in the water. But, I was like 'YOLO'. So I sat on the shallow water and just let the waves hit me repeatedly. Sand and tiny rocks filled my pockets and underwear. 'Uncomfortable' was the word to describe it.

At night, we had a fantastic buffet with dishes ranging from fish, prawns and chicken. After an hour or so, my friends and I walked along the row of shops, selling all things souvenirs and more food. By 10 Pm, we were already back in our rooms, watching a movie on TV.  

Day 3 was a rush. We checked out of our hotel by 6.30.AM and reached the jetty by 7. After everything, at around 10, we reached some plantations. There, we had coconuts, big big coconuts. 
Tasty :) 

By afternoon, the bus ride home had already begun. My journey  was packed with gossips and music. For RM 215, we really managed to do everything! We shopped, swam, danced, sang, ate and had fun. A trip never to be forgotten with the people I'll remember forever.
