Tioman Island - Day 2

It was 0700 when my alarm tried to wake me up. We've been requested to have our breakfast between the time of 0630-0930 (as fixed by the resort). This time, darling and I decided to go to the lounge earlier in order to prevent same incident happened like last nite (no much food left). Okay, there were not many guests queueing up there and now, I do believed that "early birds always get the worm to eat". HaHaHa....

Our schedule for today's activities started at 0930 as everybody needed to gather at the jetty. The first activity was snorkelling at another beaches (eg: marine park, tulai island, ayer batang etc.) as taken by a fishing boat. The agent rented for about 5 boats for us as we had total of about 80 persons. Of course, there are always choices to choose whether to join or not. It took about 30 min to reach at our destination. The water was so cold and the waves was also quite strong. Guess it might be causing by the weather that seems to be cloudy & raining on the day. However, we still proceeded with our snorkelling activity.



At 1200, we had our lunch, Fried Rice at Marine Park (provided by the resort). It wasn't delicious as the rice already cold & tasteless. Before heading back to our resort, we've been taken to a 'Duty-Free Shop' for short shopping trip. Well, all liquors & cigarettes are sold with price of tax free. But most of my friend told me that those so called 'Duty-Free Shop' usually selling with imitation liquor, meaning not an original liquors. Yet still many of them were buying from there. Time shown about 1500 and the sky started to rain when we were on the way back to our resort. The winds & waves was getting stronger and stronger which caused all of us felt cold & freezing. After a while, rain stopped and we almost reached at our resort, thanks god!

I felt extremely tired after the snorkelling activity. However, darling & his gang (some close colleagues) were suddenly held a valley ball match with their company foreign workers at the beach. That was a fun & friendly match.

Finally, darling & the team won the game! Good job darling!!!
