KIANFOH and HELENA: June 2009

1st day - 2nd June 2009
Today is very special to me as I'll be going back to Redang Island for my 2nd visit. But this time, we will be staying at Berjaya! Berjaya Redang has a beach of its own and it's exclusive.

My first visit to Redang about 7 years back was with a group of friends and we stayed in Pelangi Resort. The long stretch of beach has about 10 resorts, i think or more now. Very happening at night, beach party all night long. That was a very sweet and memorable experience.

We will be flying with Berjaya air and land at Redang Island! Sweet..no need to ride in the speed boat from jetty.

Subang Airport is under renovation. Ready to go in for boarding YAY!

That's the plane that's flying us to Redang hehe..

Dear will take any opportunity to nap! Haha

Dear wake up, let's take a picture together huhu

So seriously trying to beat my record

Aerial view of terengganu state

The moment before touching down at Berjaya Redang Airport

Small airport..Take a picture first hehe

This bus is taking us to the resort yippeeee

Taken from inside the bus. On the way to resort.

Welcome to Berjaya Redang Beach Resort

See that boy carrying a tray of drinks? Is that for us?

A drink for you, sir!

With cutie Zoe at waiting area...She's laughing so happily!

With the 3 kids! (From right: Ryan, Shaun & Zoe)

A modified truck transporting us to our hotel room. Cool

This is where we are going to stay

Is that our private beach?!! IT'S GORGEOUS!!! Cant wait to explore

We've reached our block

Awwww...testing the bed..

Long bench..Actually this room can fit 3 persons

View taken from our balcony

Wow...breathtaking...needless to say.. GORGEOUS

With my brand new hat bought from Singapore (Forever 21) and my new Gucci sunglasses, a gift from hubby..Muakss!!

Me and the beach and the balcony (as in Me and you and the dog named Boo) haha

Our room, 131. Parents in law are staying next to us, while big bro and family are 1 level below. The time is nearly 12pm. We decide to have an early lunch. Waiting for buggy to take us to the restaurant.

Taking orders..This package is inclusive of breakfast and dinner buffets. Lunch is not included but only 1 restaurant is open during day time. So i guess we have no choice but to have our meals here ONLY. There's another Japanese restaurant which only opens at night. Too bad.

Dear ordered mushroom soup and fruit punch. Mushroom soup is so thick and creamy. Too creamy for me..Fruit punch is yucky..reminds me of cough syrup.

Chicken chop ordered by dear. Yummy yummy

I ordered this..palm cafe club sandwich..Nice nice nice... Salad is super nice and fresh with vinegar and olive oil.

And i also ordered this. Lekor spring roll. Abit of lekor only...haih..too bad..Lekor is the local delicacy in Terengganu, made from fish.

The time is around 2pm. Very hot...See i'm covered haha..Explore our resort abit first. This is the wade pool. The big pool is behind me.

These are chalets.

Since the weather is too hot, we decided that indoor games are more suitable. There are pingpong and pool games here.

After that we all decided to go back to rest since the weather is not permissible (Too hot). We'll go out around 4pm. Dear enjoying and relaxing here. haha

Me also enjoying the view here..How i wish i can stay here, away from hectic lifestyle in KL.

Tell me why the beach is so beautiful. Another great creation from God.

That's my swimming suit that i bought from www.victoriassecret.com. Haha...Did not take a picture in that...but only with a t shirt over it as shown below...bleks! Well, if only i have a gorgeous body like the model, then i will show u all hahaha

After swimming in the sea and in the pool, I feel tired. Got to go back and clean up, get ready for dinner.

Getting ready to eat. Waiting for buggy again.

My first round..roasted beef........it tastes so nice..so tender...

Hubby's first round, he commented not nice..Pasta is tasteless, lamb chop is overcooked.
2nd round onwards..no time to take photos..cos so many food, so busy eating haha

Finish eating my icecream..That's it..Contented look haha..and thinking how much weight i've put on...guilty guilty..but hey, this is my vacation, so dont care...after this gotta go to gym la haha

Looking around....thinking, what to do at night? So quiet, no beach parties???? *sob* time to zzzz....nite nite....

2nd day - 3rd June 2009

View of the beach early morning around 6am. We couldnt view the sunrise from our balcony.

We decided to walk to the restaurant. There's a shortcut to the beach. Taking the steps down to the beach and to the restaurant.

Arent the coconut trees beautiful?

Breakfast buffet....yum yum i had roti canai..

Dear said the fried noodle is nice.

Ping pong time

Nice landscape

In front of lobby

After breakfast and change into my beach wear, we are ready to explore the beach again.

Saw a squirrel busy at work

Under the canopy

Colourful canoes

Strolling along the beach

Dear wearing my Gucci ahhahaha

We love the beach...........

This is the buggy we travel everyday in. Wish they let me drive one. haha

Me & zoe getting ready for snorkelling. We are all excited!

Shaun & Ryan in action

Well equipped for snorkelling..
The boat ride was torturing. The boat was full, me and hubby had to stand. Scary experience. The wave was strong too.

I get down to the seawater for only 5 minutes and had to climb up. The wave kept carrying me away and i couldnt see the fishes. Kept adjusting me goggles and the pipe. Cos water kept flowing into it. I decided to give up.
After that ordeal, the boatman took us to another spot. This time the wave was not that rough but i was already seasick. So i just waited in the boat. There was even a girl shaking and her body cramp. They quickly transfer her to the beach using another boat.
Sad thing that i cant see the fishes.

When we reached the beach, me and hubby straight away went to the beach and pool to swim. We both agreed that it's more fun to be at the beach haha...
And then it's time for dinner. Tonite is bbq nite..sounds so good!
