We took two busses from the Cameron Highlands to the coast. The first one was very comfortable and the second an older line bus. The driver delivered packages as well 😁
As always, we took the cheapest apartment we could find. This one was nice and had a nice view. No hot plate, but we managed to buy a gas canister and pot for our camping stove so that we could cook from time to time on our balcony 🍳
The view was very beautiful and several times we spotted a pretty big waran. We called her Clementine 🐊
It was beautiful at night as well. The whole apartment complex was almost abandoned for most of our time there. So we had the pool just for us 🌌
We found a nice restaurant and had very good dinners there 🥳
Tom and I had some fish 🐟
And on the small Marina Island, which seemed to be an artificial Resort Island, was this: the funtasiland! The most neon place we have ever seen! The sand for the kids to play in was neon pink and blue as well 🤣
One day we went into the small town of Lumut. Very much deserted in the off season 😁
With nice graffiti pictures …
… and robots 🤖
In an Chinese temple we put some wishes on the wishes tree 🙏🏼
Another day we went to Pangkor Island. A customs free island where you can mostly buy sweets and fish. No alcohol or cigarettes 😁
They had a whole lot of scooters on that island. New and old 😳
A mosque in the ocean 🌊
A gang of goose that went rogue and had to get caught 🤣
And we went to this magnificent tropical beach 🏝️
It was very beautiful ❤️
Hammock, …
…
… this nice blend of jungle, sand, and ocean …
…
… and some animals to discover. There was a wild boar as well 🐗
And this nasty monkey who wanted to steal some stuff from us. But we fought him back ☮️
After some hours at that magnificent beach, we started our way back to civilization ✨
At first, the jungle trails was like the ones we already took before 😀
But the trail developed into a very rough one. The photo doesn’t do it justice. The path was marked by small pieces of barrier tape wrapped around trees. But sometimes big trees had fallen covering the tape and blocking the trail. So we spent a lot of time searching for markings, going around the fallen trees, breaking our way through the plants who had taken over the path, and sliding down muddy slopes. It was adventurous and in the end it took us almost three hours to walk almost three kilometers! Here is our tour on Komoot 🌿
But we made it in time so that we could head to the last ferry going back to Marina Island 🥳
On our way to the ferry we came across another nice beach ⛱️
And at home we treated Racki’s and Tom’s wounds from leeches. For some reason the leeches did not suck on me. Maybe the mosquitos already had taken all my blood 😳
