The Redang Rendezvous

1 weekend beach holiday …

+ 0.99sen flight tickets
+ Free-ish accommodation
+ A cab driver who decided to take the very scenic (and long!) Nilai kampung route to the airport
+ A room with “a view” for one night (complete with 26 degree air conditioning, a 14 inch television with an antenna that kept falling over each time the closet door was closed, and a bathroom that required slippers while taking a shower)
+ Some haze
+ Malay dramas, Labu & Labi, Chinese gangster movies and all day breaking news about North Korean nuclear tests
+ Rainy, lazy mornings and cuddles extraordinaire
+ Snorkelling
+ Lazing on the beach
+ Very expensive food!
+ Watermelon juice with vodka (not me! not me!)
+ A small race on the make-shift plastic floating jetty, which I won of course (What? Cheat? Who? Me? Noooooooooo!!!!!!) :-P
+ Laughing at other people in canoes
+ Saving the jelly fishes of the world
+ Sleep, sleep, sleep
+ One very rude employee who hung up the phone on Anakin (and is probably gonna regret it for the rest of his life … never mess with the dark side I tell you)
+ A 7-hour wait for our return flight
+ A mad search for Chinese food in the middle of the afternoon on very empty tummies
+ Getting caught in the middle of a gang fight in sleepy Kuala Terengganu town, inclusive of flying tables, chairs and people being chased with truncheons and ketchup bottles
+ 1 dollar showers at the Kuala Terengganu jetty
+ A loooooooong bus ride back home from the airport
