Photos from Pengerang Trip

Some photos about my trip.

Early in the morning, 30km, 2 and a half hours later, I reached the Chang Jetty Point.

Reached Changi Jetty

I enjoyed the tugboat ride, which lasted about 45mins to an hour.

Tugboat to Pengerang

Ashore Malaysia’s Jetty, was a 16km bicycle ride on a almost straight, easy and low traffic road along the coastal line to the Pengerang Town. The sights are almost kampong style, kids stick their heads out of the passing cars, or stand outside their huts and wave to you excitedly. I happen to see certain dead animals on the road.

Pengerang Town Street

At an easy cycling pace, you would hit the town in about an hour’s time. Here’s an impression of the town. Had some chee chiong fun waiting for the rest to gather at a coffee shop near taxi station. Money changing was done at inn nearby.

Lobster King
A huge lobster for lunch. We went to this restaurant call “Jade Garden” which Channel U visited before.

Dishes
More dishes.. with sharkfin soup and drinks, we payed only RM$50 per pax. The disappointment our group had was that the mantis prawns were not going to arrive until evening.

Baber

I went to get a nice RM$7 haircut at the barber while my friends bought Ipoh coffee, huge mangos.. 45 minutes to the Jetty, the return boat ride, and the most challenging part, cycling the long distance from changi home.

Was delayed a little by the rain, slip and fell as a road bike slip traveling across a wet drain cover, as we took a shortcut through hougang back to seletar road. I got changed in time to celebrate dinner for Mother’s day.

Spent no more than $50, tired, yet satisfied, and a comfort for not joining the City Dualthon or the Paya Laba’s 45km Runway Challenge.

sick! (Written on 26 May ‘07 Sat)

I’m feeling terrible…

BBQ Chicken

long free weekends are hard to come by for me, yet i felt sick early on this saturday. likely because of the dose of bbq chicken & samba stingray followed by icecream late last night.

BBQ Stingray

so i tried using the computer, but not for long, because i visited the toilet for a considerable amt of time, followed by a long rest (6 hours sleeping, to be exact) missing my lunch. So I woke up in the evening, and the unwellness kicked repeated the cycle. So I woke up again late at night, struggling with the hot and cold on my bed, I’m posting this with my Nintendo Opera Browser. View in 150% and handwriting recognisation mode, wasnt the best way to surf the net, but the least dizzy for now.

More on DS Browser wars next time.

Okay, so i edited to post to add some pictures.
