Fun Redang

A few days back I went to Redang with my girlfriends from school. this trip was our second trip together since our last trip was 6 years ago. We depart from KL at 10:30 pm on the 27th of april. we took a double decker bus to Kuala Terengganu and the journey took 7 hours. We arrived at KT at around 5:30 am. We were supposed to get some sleep while on the bus but unfortunately i didn't manage to get any cause I'm not used to travelling at night with a driver i don't know. The first part of our little vacation was all about waiting. Waiting to arrive at KT, and then we wait for the boat to Redang which was delayed until 10:30 am that's like 5 hours since arriving at KT and then we wait some more on the boat cause the journey took 2 hours from KT to Redang. And when we finally got there, we had to wait again for our room to be ready. The room was finally ready at 2 o'clock. At that point I have been awake for 30 hours! We then got ready to go for our first snorkeling trip which departs at 3 pm.



this was taken at kuala terengganu bus station at around 5:30 am

i was supposed to be a stranded mermaid and ida was trying to do an "edgy" pose...hahahaha




we were over joyed
we went back the next morning departing at 7 am from the resort. I managed to take some sunrise photos from the cafe's veranda. It was a brief bliss... we couldn't ask for a better parting gift from redang.
