Everyone to be happyTioman Trip with Family Day 1
Tuesday, June 15, 2010Finally, a getaway from Singapore! This time to Tioman with my family. We initially wanted to head to Taiwan but no more cheap tickets, wanted Rendang, but the hotels were full, so there, Tioman.
Post is going to be very picture heavy.

Post is going to be very picture heavy.
Our plane, Berjaya Air was at Seltar Airport, we reached there too early and there was a delay with the plane so we were stuck there for almost half the day with no food and water. =(
Bored, bored. I should have brought my book along. My sister stole my pork when she had a psp. Tsk.
Finally, we're taking off!
While we were about to land at Tioman, the sight below is just pretty!
While on the plane. She stole my sunglass. Tsk.
The transport provided from the airport to Berjaya Hotel. The caged up luggage and the 'bus' without any railings or cover at the side.
While on the way to the hotel, we spotted this, I guess this should be where you take the water taxis around the island.
The only 'shopping place' we spotted. We didn't visit it though.
Checked in to the hotel.
The hotel wasn't fantastic though.
We then headed out to explore the place.
While me and my dad were busy snapping around, my mum and sister went to play with water. The water's really clear but the sand wasn't those fine fine sand. =(
Dead coral washed up onto the shore.
Kids playing.
Nice sunny weather!
Just enjoying the water.
We found a big nice shell!! =)
Going snorkelling on his own.
Part of the hotel where on close inspection, part of the stairs is already broken and has collapsed and yet nothing's done?
Monitor lizard spotted while walking.
Cool sign that says "Beware of sea urchins" Can't see it cos of the bright sunlight.
A great day to tan.
My dad snapping away.
So many people tanning and I had to miss the chance. =(
My sister likes stealing my stuff. Tsk.
Using my sister as a tripod. Muahaha!
It has this very mysteriously cool effect right.
Hotel's lobby.
My mum and sister enjoying the sea breeze.
My sister trying to copy my mum's zhao pai poses.
Blue blue sea!
Another of my mum's zhao pai poses.
Oh! There were lots of bats too! Look at the bat circled in red there! They are really noisy too!
I like this. Look like some postcard. Haha.
Another monitor lizard spotted! It dug its head in to eat worms. Amazing! Haha.
The idea just came to my mind when I saw this.
I have no idea what my mum is doing.
My new bed. =P
Pretty! Taken by my sister. Hmm. Got potential.
Jump!
Jump!
You can't jump as high as me! =p
Ya and now you scared your cap fly. LOL.
The little steam, I took a picture of the other end of the steam earlier. That mysterious feel picture. Yea. And I really love this place. The whole area was really really hot, but once you step on this little stream, the water's really really cool. It's so nice that I didn't wanna leave there.
From the big sea to small little stream. I don't know how and why the water flows in this way cos on the left and right hand side of the picture, it's actually one big patch of shore. Nature works are just amazing.
Hearts.
See what I mean by nature works are amazing.
Time to act cool.
Tired already. Caught closing eyes and relaxing. I look damn cool! Haha.
Special set up for a romantic dinner by the sea? Hmm.
Sunset. :)
I should have taken more sunset pictures and not be a pig and dig into my food so early. But I was really hungry maaa.
We had complimentary dinner. We chose steamboat for today! =D The ultra huge plate of vegetables, noodles, tofu, mushroom and egg.
This serving is actually for 4, it's ultra huge plate and we actually couldn't finish it.
The ultra huge plate of seafood and meat. OMG! It was awesome! Crab, lobster, fish, sotong, cuttlefish, beef, chicken, crabstick, prawns, muscles.
Just by looking at the photos make me drool. The food's really fresh, serving was huge, food was tasty. All for free! Woah! I feel like eating again. Haha.
Lime juice for my sister.
Beer for the rest of us. I think I nearly drank half of the jug loh.
Boiling soup. Yum yum!
After dinner, very full.
Back in room after bathing.
One last photo I go to bed!
