Perhentian Island - Day 2

Breakfast was a bit sad. This was due to the fact that only few guests at the resort hence instead of full buffet, they offered ala carte menu which either American breakfast or Malaysian breakfast. That was not dampened our spirits though.

Pat took me for a walk through the beach and we scanned the menu on the restaurants along the beach to plan for our lunch.



An English guy stayed in tent at the worst part of the beach. We still cannot figure out why. The pic below was the former "Everfresh Chalet". It was apparently not so fresh anymore. Rubbishes from the sea drifted to this part of the beach.





Pics above are typical taxi stand here. The speedboat will take us to other part of the island or the other islands. Most will use this facility to go to Long Beach in Perhentian Kecil for some fun or Perhentian Island Resort at the back of this beach. There is a trail from our resort to PIR but I was too sick to walk for 45 minutes. We talked to other guests that went through the trail and they said it was not worth the effort.









I took a nap after that but Pat kept going on to other side of the beach and she found a nice spot hidden behind a big rock. Took me in the afternoon, we managed to get our solemn moment at "Pat's rock" until three boys came for fishing on the rock in front of us.

The left one was the rock that we used to chill down. The rock in front of it covered us from the outsiders while the trees provided us a nice shade and breeze. Total bliss!

The lagoon has clear fresh water with few dragonflies and small fish jumping around. There is a waterfall behind it and we love the vibe from the whole area. Tranquil and peaceful.



After lunch, I again took a long nap while Pat went for the beach again. It was a relaxing day for us. I do hope I did not ruin Pat's holiday as I was so terribly sick due to the med.
