... twice the price but at least I'd get a sound nights sleep.<br><br>Jesus, Mary and Joseph, what the fek was that..... Whatever it was it was in my room I was sure of it, the rustle of a carrier bag had given it away. Rats! I'd heard from another lad they had woken up to a carrier bag raiding rat in their room the night before. The rest of the night went a little something like this...<br><br>'Rats = nocturnal??.Must turn on ...

... the ferry over to the Island. Chauey and I have been here before with the gals in 2008 and loved it so much, we couldn't wait to share it with our families and other friend. We are staying at the Laguna Island Resort which look after you from the time you arrive at the airport. ( To be honest this is a gorgeous resort and well run but we both preferred the smaller resort that we stayed in previously... The Coral Redang Resort ...

Well, still in Malaysia at the moment and I am so glad that I stayed! Its been great spending more time with Anna and I still had so much graduate school stuff that I really needed to sit down and handle. Other than Anna, I stayed for the fourth of July celebrations and to help with Anna's English camp. It was so great to spend the fourth of July with so many Americans! I ...

... water so clear you could see your toes perfectly even if you were in up to your shoulders. Here's the sad part of the story: speeding back in the boat, our bags were all "secured" in nets hanging from the roof of the boat. We hit a wave (vague), the boat jumped (a saute), and unfortunately, Kyla's bag dropped through a large hole in the net, and her camera (bought at the beginning of the trip) fell into the sea. The water was about 30 ft (10m) deep, so retrieving it was out of ...

Apologies for lack of updates but most of the places we have recently been have been somewhat undeveloped with few facilities!! After leaving our last Thai destination of the trip (Ko Phi Phi) we headed on what would prove to be our most hellish journey to date! For approximately 10 hours myself and Sam were crammed into the hottest sardine can 'VIP'(most loosest term ever used!) minibus to make the trip to ...

... boat trip to the Perhentians. Let's recap: Fly to Singapore, taxi downtown, taxi to JBR Malaysia, brief rest, fly to KBR, taxi to boat jetty, boat to islands. 18 hours door-to-door. I had contacted a couple of places regarding accommodation and diving before arrival, and for some reason, decided to go for the unknown. We were dropped off on the beach in front of Watercolours dive shop and Paradise Resort. With a name like Paradise, it would seem you couldn't go wrong ...

... is actually on the East Coast, on the South China Sea, like 4 hours away from the park, sort of a detour! I realized it about an hour into the 8-hour trip, so you can imagine not the best day for me. Plus the fact that there really is nothing to do here and yup, I'm still tired from the friggin' Dengue. So what to do? On the bright side, my 5 days of indulgence in Kuala Lumpur were great. R&R, plus shopping and entertainment! They have EVERYTHING in KL ! Every ...
