Winzzy's World Of Thoughts

Finally, the long-awaited post is here!! Lo and behold, its the final and last day of my itinerary in Tioman Island. Without further ado, lets begin…

Woke up at 430am just to catch the sunrise, but the sky was still pitch dark by then.. so waited till 5+ but due to some delay, only managed to get out by 6+. By then, the sky was a bit bright already. I was looking all over for the sun.. but.. to my dismay, it wasn’t facing our direction!! Aww.. anyways, still managed to capture some sunrise shots below..

What’s tat white thingy hanging over there? :XFirst glow of the sunlight!Radiant rays of the sun..lovely!Say hello to the BLUE BLUE sky!See the orange-reddish clouds? So Cool!Crystal clear water!!GOOD MORNING Tioman!!

After watching the sunrise, it was abt 7am, just nice to have breakfast! What a spread! Delicious…

And, not forgetting…

The Tasty Omelette made by one of the cooks there.. super nice and delicious!!

Tasty omelette!!

I could eat like 2-3 slices of that man.. its just so NICE! <3

After the hearty breakfast, our next destination…

“Rocky Island”

Rocky Island is the name i give to that island, as its full of rocks and getting there is only accessible during the low tide periods in the early mornings. Therefore, we were able to cross. See how far the distance is! Its really un-crossable during high tides!

Spotted at the beach…A (dead) coral but with living colours! This is wad i call the “disappearing land”, cos u can only see it visibly during low tide in the early mornings, as it will be totally submerged under water during high tide.The sun is scorching bright that i can’t open my eyes!We’re approaching the island!Smiles of anticipation and elatedness!No no, i wasn’t sleeping! >.<Lots of sea-anemones!!Looks like some lightning sparks!

At last, we reached the island. First thing to do was…

TO CARVE OUT MY NAME ON THE EXTREMELY SOFT SAND!! =D

Look who’s here??Tada.. its Yours Sincerely!Rocks..and more rocks!!See the chinese character (Shui) over there? It means an abundance of water!This looks like a volcano tat hasn’t “erupted” yetDifferent rock formations

And now, its time for me to be a model and take some nice professional shots!

I love this pose!Look, its a Victory sign! =)The Climbing-A-Rock pose!Woo! Im at the highest point!! @_@I love this mermaid-sitting-on-the-rocks pose!The BFG has just landed on this island!This rock here is SUPER DUPER ULTRA slippery! As it is submerged partially under the water..its not easy to even sit on it.. but i made it!! Yeah!!Omg~ Im falling!!

P/S: Dun think its easy to climb these rocks.. as they are quite slippery and one may fall if not careful enuf. Therefore, safety precautions must be ensured before climbing. But for me, i really went all out just to take these classic photos.. without really caring abt whether i would fall or not. Fortunately, i din.. So ... DUN PLAY PLAY OK!! Lol..

A pity couldn’t spend much time on the island as we were supposed to check out by 10am. So, we quickly made our way back to the resort.

HELP! Im stranded in the sea!!Its quite rare to see those green patches..MOSS?

While on the way back, saw some ppl crossing over too. Guess they must have seen us cross thats y they also cross..haha!

After we had successfully checked out at the reception, there were still abt 2 hrs left before the ferry comes. Thus, we had a short game of pool, which i won in the end!

After that, headed for lunch at a nearby chinese restaurant and while waiting for the food to be served, i went to check out the other side of the beach, which is also full of rocks too!!

The sea is really BLUE in colour!!Many small fishes..or guppies??Look what’s underneath the water!!99.99% transparent water!!

After lunch, we just waited at the jetty for the ferry to come with feelings of sadness to leave the island.

Feeling sad to leave…The ferry has come!!One last look before we go…Bye bye Tioman, I’ll miss you!!

Unlike the arrival ferry ride, the return ferry ride took a bit longer as it has to make its way to other parts of Tioman first before heading back to Tg Gemok.

After arriving at Gemok, we took a coach back to SG and this was the time where i felt very nauseous.

During the trip from SG to Mersing, we sat on a small bus so when the bus turns, the impact wasn’t so great and so i din rly feel v nauseous. But for the return trip, we sat on the big coach and upon turning, the impact is so great that it makes me feel v nauseous and almost wanna vomit. To suppress the feelings of vomitting, i had to sleep..really force myself to sleep and forget abt the nausea. Finally after 2 1/2 hrs, we arrived to a stop near a provision shop for a break. Finally can breath in some fresh air!! Whew..

Aft tat, the bus continued on until we reached the checkpoints and finally reached back SG!! Home sweet home!

THE END
