Fuu.. i can't believe i even have time to crap on this 3rd post, on the same date, 27/12/2012. Wondering will this post be my last post of the year. Cautious! This is gonna be long post!
This post is blogged specially for you, chubby. Do you remember the great time during our trip? 5 years together, this is the first time we went for trip, just the two of us together and i seriously very happy thinking it back again and again. Wishing can go trip with you every year once le.. haha. One of my wishes. =D
This trip was on because chubby was planning to attend this Magic The Gathering GP Manila around June 2012. I was being so emo about he going to be away from me for almost a week. Seriously damn emo. Wtf am i so emo bout it? Coz never in our 5 years relationship, he is away THAT LONG! *pouts* Sorry, i admit i'm being so sticky towards him. >_< And so, he promised to bring me for a trip, as a compensation he is ditching me for whole week.
Planning a trip was not easy though and we are so in budget tight. Me, love to exploring on voucher sites, happen to saw great deal on this Cherating 2D1N trip at
Groupon and forward to chubby. With immediate response from him, we purchased this voucher and book on the date before he gonna fly to MTG GP Manila.
And so the date has come!
The journey starts. It was 3-4 hours journey reaching Cherating because we both are noob in sense of road. Haha. Nevertheless, we arrived safe and sound. Thank God. Cherating was less developed with no tall building around. It was quite a kampung area to me judging chubby and me come from city.
We arrived quite early than we expected and the hotel check in was 3pm if i not mistaken. Thanks to dear chubby; he really making effort to list down day 1 and day 2 what to do and where to go for me. How thoughtful! So he brought me to see turtle at Cherating Turtle Sanctuary! It was not turtle hatching season, so no baby turtle for me to see. And also, to our both disappointment, this place seems dry out. It is free entrance and you can give donation. Nothing much to explore except few turtles swimming around the small pool. Poor fella, you suppose to swim in big ocean! Me never see baby turtle in real life. D:

After the turtle sight seeing which not more than 30 mins, we hunt for food coz is lunch time! The weather was so so so hot, so we settle down in one kedai makan that we found along the roadside *there are many kedai makan at Cherating but mostly all operated at night*. While we are savoring our meal thinking how to spend 2 more hours before our check in time, we got called from our hotel saying they allowed us to check in early. Blimey! Gonna love their courteousness! We checked in around 1pm and rest to gained our energy after whole morning journey on road till evening hour, our next plan; head up to Kuantan beach!
I super super super love love love Kuantan beach! Although it was not my fave beach; i still prefer beach with fine sand and transparent clear blue greeny sea water but heck, this beach ok liao if to compared to Gold Coast Morib and Port Dickson. Why le? Coz the sea water although is not clear blue, but it still clear and clean, at least. Yes, the sand, i adore the fine sand that i enjoyed stepping on it with my bare feet. Chubby and me spent half evening till night at that beach, enjoying walking the side by side and holding hands at the beach side, getting our feet wet by the sea water. That moment, is my most precious moment.

| Me being so excited standing on soft fine sand. In love! |
 |
| Our feet!! See see, the water is so clean! |
 |
| About to take pic with the rocks around. wtf. |
 |
| Chubby was trying to catch baby crab for me! |
 |
| I think he failed to catch one. =P |
Sunset and moon rising up, we back into our car and hunt for dinner around Kuantan area and found this
kedai makan Planet Seafood. One thing that chubby enjoy this trip is the food we had, was damn cheap if to compared to our city cost. Cheap that we ordered so many for less than RM30 if i still can remembered. Oh ya, the food is not bad! I kinda miss the
ikan pari bakar.
 |
| We had tomyam soup, telur bistik, daging masak merah, sayur kailan masak ikan masin and ikan pari bakar! |
 |
| Before the night end, we chilled up at hotel bar, chubby having his chill beer and i having my fave icy cold kahlua! |
The end of our day 1 together.
I'm not a morning riser but i forced myself to wake up early before the sun fully heat out and forced chubby to wake up. It took me so hard to wake this chubby up. Grrr... He is even worst than me. Damn lazy pig! Why wake up so early? Because i wanna walk the beach side with chubby before we going back on that day; walk at hotel beach side this time. That is how much i love that moment again and i wanna do it again with chubby.
 |
| The hotel beach. At least this place is clean. |
 |
| Enjoying coffee before check out. wtf. |
So sad that we are gonna go back to KL and face the reality of life. D: We only had noodles cup and coffee for our breakfast. Know what, I love having instant noodles cup in hotel. So is a must to pack inside my travel bag. Basically, what chubby had planned in the list, we did not went for it coz
we I too lazy wanna explore other places. Beach is enough to satisfy me. Before going back to KL, we went further to
sempadan Terengganu i assumed to hunt for their famous
otak-otak and
sata which is like you can definitely find it at every roadside.

| Sata (the triangle looking), otak-otak, keropok lekor |
Very different from what we normally ate at KL. The
otak-otak texture is wet type
*the normally i ate is dry type* but i enjoyed the
sata the most.
Keropok lekor, the
mak cik served us that time, was bit cold.. not crispy. So so only..
 |
| The warung. |
 |
| First time driving on big highway with the speed of 140km/j. >_< Chubby put his life on my hand and he slept during the road journey back. Aiks.. |
Ok, the end of day 2. Typing this with love, your emo girl.
