Redang Trip 25-28 April 2010
♥ 25 April 2010 ♥
Finally, the planned Redang trip!!
We left Singapore at 10pm on 25 Apr. The coach ride was for 10 hours. We do get toilet breaks in between but I've decided not to use the toilets after I went to the one at the Singapore Custom. I just super hate public toilets!! They stink big time!
So, for majority of the night trip, we were all fast asleep. Ocassionally, hearing the horn and coaches that travel on the other lane in opposite direction.
♥ 26 April 2010 ♥
We arrived at the jetty at about 8am in the morning. The boat to Redang will arrive at 930am. Woah! We had 1.5 hours more and there was no canteen in sight. It soon started to rain. What a way to start our trip.
Then we heard some aunties and uncles....oooooiiiiirrrrrrrkkkk.. Hahaha.. Did you guess it right? They were holding plastic bags in their hands and their faces were buried in the bags. Better close my eyes and don't look so much!
In the middle of the sea, we had to change to another boat... hmm.. so troublesome one?? Anyway, we reached the island safely and the rain has already stopped.
At the Welcome Room at Laguna Redang Resort, we had to attend a briefing. The presenter was rather funny. After which, we proceeded to the resort lobby for our Welcome Drink, and check-in.
Immediately after check-in, the first thing we do is.....EAT!! Lunch buffet is served. The food was really good.
After that, it's about 2.30pm, we decided to join the 3pm snorkelling trip. Went to rent our snorkelling gear at RM30 for each person, which consists of 1 life jacket, and 1 snorkelling goggle.
First snorkelling trip after so many years. The last time I went snorkelling was at Phuket and I didn't really enjoy myself due to the sea-sickness!! Was vomiting until my face turned green.
It is so fun!! We fed fish with bread. They'll keep swimming to us as long as we have bread. We saw many colourful fish, which I dunno how to recognize any of them.
Soon, it was time to go back. We headed to the swimming pool first to wash away the salt water on our body. Just to make sure that we were cleaner before we step into our rooms again.
We bathed and rested for awhile only!! And it's DINNER time. Buffet again..... I tried to be healthy and had a big plate of salad in front of me, so that I can keep munching on vegetables while I nom nom on other irresistable food.
After dinner, we decided to go for a walk. Lassie's brother was saying there are other resorts along the beach and we can take a long walk and take a look at the other resorts. We were happy to know that Laguna Redang Resort is one of the busier resorts. The other resorts were like so quiet.
Of course we didn't forget to take some photographs when we see anything interesting.
After the walk, we headed to the little house where 夏日摸摸茶(starring Sammi Cheng and Richie Ren) was filmed, to take some photographes. It is now a gift shop, selling many cutie stuff, toys and souvenirs.
We then called it a night as we'd have to wake up early the next morning to go for breakfast and then the 9.30am snorkelling trip.
♥ 27 April 2010 ♥
We woke up at 7.30am to get ready to go for breakfast at 8am. Arrghhh.. do we have to wake up sooo early? We are on holiday! Yes... you have to..as you need to go for the snorkelling trip at 9.30am.
As usual, it's BUFFET!
Then we were off to the jetty for the briefing. Today, we are going to the Marine Park. Again... feeding fishes. We can also take underwater photographs if we want to. Instead of getting the staff of the resort to take for us, and buying the photographs from them. We decided to rent our own underwater camera to take some underwater photographs. It costs RM100 for a day. At the end of the day, they will burn the images into a CD for us.
Ok... here we are at Marine Park. We alighted at the jetty and walked to the beach. Left our things at a table.. and off we went into the water to feed the fishes. This time, I didn't wear my life jacket, just brought it into the water with me, and used it to keep my bread above the water. Hahahaha...
I tried feeding the fish while holding on the the bread so that the fish will come nearer and eat from my hands. They were soooo fast, and one of them accidentaly bit my finger. OUCH!! Bloooood... Will sharks come? Hahahahaha..
We then swam further out and went under the jetty. The current was rather strong at times, but we managed well. It's so much better with the life jacket! We were able to quickly dive into the water and take some quick shots. We had a great time here as the water is much more clearer and less salty than the place yesterday.
Soon, it was time to go back again... for LUNCH! Oh... again.. it's buffet. Every meal is buffet, we are growing fat. But we said to ourselves, don't worry, we are burning all the calories from the snorkelling trips. Hahaha..
After lunch, what did we do again? Rest... and then of course it's another snorkelling trip. This time, the place is pretty nearby. It only took 15 minutes to arrive.
Again, we fed fish... and it's getting a little bit boring. While we were swimming, we felt like we kicked on something... YeeekS!!! I got a scare. When I took a look, I realise that the corals were there! The water is too shallow or what? For the rest of the time, I had my feet close to my body, except when I was sure the water was deep enough for me to let go of my legs.
Before the staff told us that it's 'time's up', we decided to go back up on the boat to rest. And took a little nap before everyone else came back up on the boat.. and we are all going back to the resort.. for what? Getting ready for Dinner of course!! We are having BBQ Dinner tonight. So exciting~~~
However, we were rather disappointed. The BBQ didn't have any prawns, mussels...etc. We were expecting seafood!!! Like lobsters, prawns, crabs, mussels. But what we had were beef, lamb, chicken wings....
OK.. so, after we had our dinner, we went to have a walk around.. bought some titbits and went back to our rooms to pack up for the next morning. We are coming back to Singapore!!!

Next morning, after the buffet breakfast, we cleared the room and checked out. The boat ride back was very smooth, and there was no need to change boats in the middle of the sea. When we reached the jetty, the coach is already waiting for us.
We then said Good Bye to Redang and Terengganu and on the way back to Singapore.
I would said the trip was rather fun. Our coaches were very comfortable. Even with those 10-hour rides, we didn't feel too tired at all.
