Departed from hotel early morning, had little time to enjoy the view of 10th floor lobby Hmmphh
The buffet breakfast was included, hence we're not wasting it hahaha
Couldnt snap the other side of the room, wall of glass with view of the busy road outside
Side view of the hotel >.<
Snapped alot of random roadside photos while otw to Pak Ba Ra pier (jetty) due to boredom while the YCH slept most of the time
It took about 2 hours from Hatyai to the jetty and we're lucky there's no other passengers, so kinda like we 包 the whole van muahahha We had the whole van for ourselves XD
Weeeee the sky is cracking *overwhelmed by boredom*
Everything was smoothy until we stepped onto the island and realized
WOW, this is really really a seriously small island haha
As part of my habit, we had marked (labelled) some of the travelers in the same speedboat with us
We've got 3 ah zai-s, a kia-su family of threes and fours-who-had-dropped-their-camera
The resort we've booked was Lipe Power Beach Resort on sunrise beach (we took the sea breeze room) but we're lucky becoz it's the first from reception desk, so kinda feels no different with sea front room that is more expensive
View from the door of room =D
Although there's one problem with the room, air cond not working @.@ as well as the wifi not working
But the boss was kind enough to let us have an extra room, not having view on the sea from the door, but the air cond was working perfectly well
In the end, we had 2 rooms to use YAY! haha
After settling down, we headed for the area we first thought 'town'
Walking for 20-30 mins through the walking street, we're surprised to find that we've reached the other end of this island - the sunset beach
Walking back and forth, we've came to realize THIS IS IT! haha a rather simple island
The other 2 ends of this island full of hills and stones (I've no idea how to call/describe it) haha, hence this description is pretty descent for me >.<
Likey the color sea in this ^^
Found a cafe with customers and seem to be busy (we think it's definition of ok rated restaurant)
Probably due to this low season, most of the shops were renovating and some seem lifeless
not even sound of people working or a customer in them
Best thing about this restaurant = stable wifi
(we've been dependent on this wifi to get in touch with outside world)
Had both lunch and dinner here and spent some times in the sunset beach being 'punched' by the wave
Salty water, but not as salty as the one in Phuket or Tioman (or is it just my taste bud?) haha
Bought snorkeling package at 550TB (much lesser than our expectation) haha
Even if 包船, it's just 1500TB, divided by 2 = 750TB still worth it if there's no min. 4 persons buying the tix
Later the nite, we're told there are 3 other people joining us *expected to be the 3 ah zai-s*
and YCH thought of saying HI to them (they're m'sian too)
Lucky for me to bring along torchlight, it's really a need when we're going out during nite time as the resort is about 5-10 mins walking distance from nearest tar road leading to the Kohlipe Walking Street
Alrite, the snorkeling shall be continued in next post =D
THE
END
