Mersing Village


It was a sunny evening , we passed by a village on the way to Penyabong beach...The sunshine was so bright although it was 10 minutes to 6...We have a sight-seeing all the way n chatted cheerfully in the car...

This is a large prawn pond...Unfortunately , we do not have a chance to go on sight-seeing of it...


The buffalo was staring at us when our car passed by....

A flock of sheep

A herd of cow walked across the road..We have to stop the car to let those "cow brothers" to cross over it~~!!

This is the view of the lake...we never ever can predict how deep it is~~!!

Air Papan Beach

Above is a picture of the "map" of Mersing...the biggest portion (right) is Mersing , which is the east side of Johore...the small portions represent the islands which located on the South China Sea , one of the largest sea bodies after the 5 oceans~~!! One of the islands is Tioman Island ^^


Our 1st sight-seeing destination was Air Papan Beach after we have arrived Mersing...It was a sunny day , i still remembered we reached the beach precisely 5 pm , the tide was on the ebb n we were able to go down to the beach...

Familiar with the above childhood game~~?? haha..i could not remember when was the last time i played it..but we have fun and enjoyed the game~~!!

The sea-wind was blowing strongly and the waves was rolling too~~We decided to play kite ...Unfortunately , look at the picture~~u should know wat has happened~~!! RM6 "evaporated" within 5 minutes...LoL~~!!



We never missed the chance to take a picture with the beautiful sand castle~~!! so nice ^^

RISING TIDE / FLOOD TIDE

Yesh~~here is the photographer . Finally he passed away his camera and imitated the protagonists of the "Titanic" with me...haha~~the "Turtle Island" is located on the left-hand-side of this shore~~

From the left : Chun Xiong , Liang Kok , Pei Vern , Jing Ying , Pei Yee , Yilly and Wai Keong ~~Friendship Forever...
Besides , Tioman Island is located 50++kilometres away from this beach...
"TURTLE ISLAND"
Due to the monsoon season , the sea-wind was blowing extremely strong and the sea-wave was rolling...It was so cooling n i loved it~~
As the shape looked like a turtle , so they named it "Turtle Island"~~

Mersing beach part 2

It was ebb tide when we reached the beach ...We were so excited because finally we have another opportunity to play kite as the sea wind was blowing strongly...(2nd time kite-playing after the kite hung on the tree at Air Papan beach)...

We tied up the kite n i took a picture with it before we started to play it..LoL~~!! Eventually , bad luck "visited" again , the kite once again hung on the coconut tree...LMAO (sea wind too strong)...
We have thrown alot of small coconut husks to "rescue" the kite...but eventually we failed....sigh~~!!
Lastly , we decided to pull it down by its string...Unfortunately , the string was broken~~Goodbye to our second kite...RM6 "evaporated" again~~LoL ^^
As we have nothing to do...i decided to run-and-jump to make some fun...

We took a walk along the seashore n we reached the end of it ...The sky was getting darker and darker because it was going to rain soon~~

It started to rain , we ran quickly n squeezed into the car n drove off ...it was raining cats and dogs while on the way to the Western Restaurant...Unfortunately , the restaurant was not up to operation hours yet , so we waited approximately 20 minutes in the car~~!!

The food was quite delicious and the proprietress served us with full of kindness n politeness...
We took a picture at the entrance before we left the restaurant...
This restaurant is being operated by a couple of Swiss (approximately 50++years old) who already migrated to Mersing as permanant resident(PR) for almost 12 years ..
